As the lead teacher of the Student Council Committee, I want my members to be involved in school events. Therefore, the first task for the committee was to have reading medals for upper grades who have reached 100% of their reading goal. Therefore, the the label maker was a must-have, as the we were able to print a label sticker to the medal to be given to the achiever. In addition, all members have their badge to wear around school and they are loving it. Lastly, as the month of October is approaching, my students will be handing out treats such as sticky hands, pencils, and squishies around the school to promote school spirit.","fullyFundedDate":1787194811836,"projectUrl":"project/student-council-committee/10439747/","projectTitle":"Student Council Committee","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Mendez Navarro","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp4904101_orig.jpg?crop=1025,1025,x0,y0&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1583989631504","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/4904101"},{"teacherId":4904101,"projectId":10338550,"letterContent":"Thank you for funding books for my library that will be utilized during the Walk to Read program.

In addition, last week we were learning about Ancient China, and they used air-dry clay to construct their own vase.","fullyFundedDate":1787195546063,"projectUrl":"project/destress-as-you-are-engaged-in-creating/10313140/","projectTitle":"Destress As You Are Engaged In Creating A Masterpiece","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Mendez Navarro","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp4904101_orig.jpg?crop=1025,1025,x0,y0&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1583989631504","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/4904101"},{"teacherId":4904382,"projectId":10330598,"letterContent":"At our school site, home of the Falcons, the sport of soccer is super popular among the children.
