The reward is for anyone who has the motivation to want to learn cursive. \r\nStudents from previuos years still come to me to refill their ink from thier fountain pens. The pen is a reminder that with practice, they can accomplish many things. \r\nYour donation has helped me to coninue my passion to share cursive with students and pass on this amazing, almost lost art.","fullyFundedDate":1755611367917,"projectUrl":"project/cursive-writing/9362626/","projectTitle":"Cursive Writing!","teacherDisplayName":"Mr. Contreras","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp6577745_orig.jpg?crop=1:1,smart&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1625799674746","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/6577745"},{"teacherId":9131237,"projectId":9489061,"letterContent":"Thank you so much for your donation to our classroom!
