These puzzles have had a meaningful and positive impact on my students and the overall learning environment.\r\n\r\nMy classes are highly differentiated, with students working across a wide range of mathematical levels and abilities. The Scramble Square puzzles have proven to be an excellent problem-solving activity that meets the needs of all learners. When students finish their classwork, they now have access to a challenging and engaging task that encourages them to think critically, reason logically, and persevere through complex problems. The students remain focused and motivated, often collaborating on the puzzles. They love to work together on them.\r\n\r\nPerhaps most importantly, the Scramble Square puzzles have transformed how students use their time when they finish early. Instead of reaching for their phones or disengaging, students are choosing to stay mentally active and continue stretching their minds. This has created a more productive and positive classroom atmosphere where learning continues throughout the entire class period.\r\n\r\nThank you again for your generous support. Your donation has directly enriched my students' learning experiences and has become a valued part of our daily classroom routine.","fullyFundedDate":1758636573271,"projectUrl":"project/scramble-squares-for-screen-free-math-fu/9745008/","projectTitle":"Scramble Squares for Screen-Free Math Fun","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Carder","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-4_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/8125507"},{"teacherId":7951282,"projectId":8894881,"letterContent":"Thanks to your generous support, our students were able to collaborate and create a truly stunning set for our school musical!
