Students used the points they earned through positive behavior, responsibility, and hard work to shop for candy, snacks, and other cute items. They were thrilled to choose their own rewards!\r\n\r\nOur next step is to continue opening the Dojo Store at the end of each month. These resources help motivate my students to make positive choices, stay focused, and work hard. Your generous donations have made our classroom rewards meaningful and exciting.

They then removed the paper to find the flower impressions into their paper. It was so magical to see their faces when they saw the lines of the flowers and leaves imprinted on their paper. \r\nI look forward to using these geli plates with other grade levels soon for more exciting printmaking lessons.","fullyFundedDate":1776441212315,"projectUrl":"project/gelli-plates/10112664/","projectTitle":"Gelli Plates","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Beam","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp1924054_orig.jpg?crop=640,640,x0,y0&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1632928601786","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/1924054"},{"teacherId":1924054,"projectId":10238096,"letterContent":"Thank you again for helping provide my students with paint!
