The excitement in our classroom was incredible the moment the boxes arrived. My students could hardly contain their curiosity as we unpacked the materials together—each new item brought wide eyes, big smiles, and plenty of \"wow!\" moments. These resources have already made such a positive difference in our daily lessons.\r\nWe've been using the new materials to make learning more hands-on and meaningful. During our recent Onigiri Action project, students learned about compassion, global citizenship, and how small acts can create big change. They made and shared photos of onigiri (Japanese rice balls) as part of a global effort to help fight hunger. The materials you provided allowed them to be creative and thoughtful while participating in an activity that connects them with students and families around the world. One student shared, \"I didn't know we could help others just by doing something fun like this!\"\r\nThanks to your support, our classroom is now a place where students not only learn about the world but also see themselves as changemakers in it. Our next step is to continue exploring ways to take action—whether by raising awareness about global issues or finding new ways to serve our local community. These materials will keep inspiring students to make a real impact, one rice ball at a time.","fullyFundedDate":1747764673980,"projectUrl":"project/fighting-hunger-one-rice-ball-at-a-time/9353191/","projectTitle":"Fighting Hunger, One Rice Ball at a Time","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Akimoto","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp9709523_orig.png?width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1725839439724","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/goskylinestudents"},{"teacherId":7476744,"projectId":5624501,"letterContent":"My students continue to read these nonfiction science books year to year in my classroom.
