The printer is housed in the front office so our whole staff is able to use it to print incentives for specific students who meet their attendance and/or a behavioral goal. \r\nI have used it with a student who struggles with basic emotional regulation. He has chosen a fidget spinner and a cone shaped fidget. He knows what he is working for in my group and what it will take for him to earn them. It has helped me engage him more than before. He likes the idea that we printed it at school and it is something he can earn and take home. \r\n\r\nThe secretaries have printed a few items to use with students who remain after school when their adults run late at pick up. The favorites are a long \"leaf dragon\" and small \"coyotes\" (our mascot) that they play with instead of walking around wondering what to do at the end of the day. \r\n\r\nThese small items make a BIG impact with students and staff and I cannot thank you enough for your help in funding the machine and filament!","fullyFundedDate":1755897881886,"projectUrl":"project/3d-printed-creations-incentives/9610282/","projectTitle":"3d Printed Creations Incentives!","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Stoddard","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/272x272/tp807929_272x272.jpg?width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1473806564297","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/jennknorr"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_88198","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":392,"numTeachers":29,"percentFrplEligible":70,"percentAsian":17,"percentBlack":9,"percentWhite":26,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":34,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"K - 5","studentTeacherRatio":"13.5:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"URBAN","ncesMetroType":"CITY_LARGE"},"inStateSupporters":71.1,"schoolId":88198,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Powell Butte Elementary School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Powell Butte Elementary School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/oregon/centennial-school-dist-28j/lynch-wood-elementary-school/88198"}
