My third graders were so excited to see all that you provided us. Our classroom is brighter, happier, and all-around better because of you.\r\n\r\nWe will work on two beautiful art projects this spring using the supplies you donated. We will paint our own personal masterpiece on the art canvases, and we will make a poem on the tiles for our moms on Mother's Day. Both of these projects are ones my students treasure.\r\n\r\nOur classroom is brighter and happier because of your donations, as well. We have a new carpet to sit at for read aloud. It brings joy to our classroom because it is bright and colorful. The kids love it! We also now have classroom balls to play with during recess. This is truly a gift to them. Previous to this, they had a really difficult time finding a ball to play with at recess. Now, they have no worries about racing out to try to get a ball. They play together happily. This has brought new friendships and togetherness in our classroom.","fullyFundedDate":1764721681686,"projectUrl":"project/bringing-art-and-activity-to-third-grade/9932301/","projectTitle":"Bringing Art and Activity to Third Grade","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Kennedy","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/272x272/tp629382_272x272.jpg?width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1532750421590","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/629382"},{"teacherId":629382,"projectId":9183957,"letterContent":"Thank you so much for the generous donation of books to our classroom library.

Their faces lit up with excitement as we unpacked the items together. One student whispered, \"Wait... we get to earn these?\" That moment said it all.\r\n\r\nWe officially launched our Dojo Points reward store, and the results have been amazing. Students are now more focused, motivated, and eager to take on challenges. I've seen them working harder during lessons, being kinder to their classmates, and even helping clean up without being asked—because they're proud to earn their points, not just for the rewards, but for the recognition.\r\n\r\nRight now, we're using the reward system to support our current unit on teamwork and problem-solving. Students are earning points for showing leadership during group projects, and they're really stepping up. It's helping build a positive classroom culture where effort, respect, and kindness are celebrated.\r\n\r\nWhat's next? We're planning to add themed reward days, mini-challenges, and classroom jobs tied to the Dojo point system. This program is going to keep growing with our class, and your donation laid the foundation.\r\n\r\nFrom all of us—thank you for believing in our students and bringing joy to our classroom each and every day.
