Students have been working hard on their first project to introduce themselves to all those to enter our classroom. Before the ability to print and laminate their art I was printing basic sheets and having them all fill out and color the basic sheets. Now, they have been able to create from their own minds using platforms like Canva, and then printing them out. It really has sparked a sense of creativity and a sense of belonging in our classroom. \r\nStudents have been able to see their work come alive and parents have even expressed the joy their student has in working on their very first project. We are so fortunate to be able to continue this throughout the year as we dive deeper into creating and students will have many opportunities to make more. \r\nI have one student in particular who struggles academically but LOVES being on technology so for them especially seeing their project in our classroom is very special because they don't often have other choices of academic work to hang up and show off to others!","fullyFundedDate":1756387030920,"projectUrl":"project/help-4th-graders-see-their-work-come-to/9484361/","projectTitle":"Help 4th Graders See Their Work Come to Life","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. DeMoss","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp9103720_orig.jpg?crop=1:1,smart&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1721160088089","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9103720"},{"teacherId":9734153,"projectId":9206474,"letterContent":"Thank you so much for your generosity.
