They love listening to them chirp and holding them brought a smile to their face. The materials that you provided the feeders and the books helped us along our journey. They were the joy of our class.","fullyFundedDate":1744032783521,"projectUrl":"project/here-a-chick-there-a-chick-everywhere-a/9212742/","projectTitle":"Here a Chick There a Chick Everywhere a Chick Chick!","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Howard","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp6919555_orig.jpg?crop=1:1,smart&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1722797802275","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/6919555"},{"teacherId":7438015,"projectId":8738218,"letterContent":"Our students love the new books.

The books are great for them to look at while they wait on their families to arrive to pick them up, we use them for all different parts of our day, and we talk about the different parts of the world. \r\n\r\nThe bowling set is also so much fun.
