Their money math skills have grown so much since the start of the year. It's amazing to watch their independence and real-world problem-solving develop through this experience.\r\n\r\nThe store has made a huge impact on our classroom community—it has helped with responsibility, accountability, and overall engagement in such a fun and meaningful way.

Your support has made a meaningful impact on our students.\r\n\r\nThanks to your kindness, we have been able to use these resources in small-group sessions, individual check-ins, and whole-class activities. We are already seeing positive changes!\r\n\r\nIn small groups, I've been able to work with students who need additional support in learning coping strategies and practicing how to navigate various situations. Many students especially enjoy using our \"Koala Buddy\" when they need extra time in our calm corner. Our fifth-grade students frequently ask for the calm ball when they need help regulating their emotions, and it has been wonderful to see them identify and request the tools that support their well-being.\r\n\r\nYour generosity has truly made a difference.

Your donations have made it possible for our students to enjoy special game days that bring joy, laughter, and a stronger sense of community.\r\n\r\nEvery Friday, our students gather to play, practice, and build on the skills and strategies they learned the week before. Over time, this consistency helps them develop not just as players, but also as leaders. Our vision is to have \"experts\" in different games who can welcome newcomers and teach them how to play—creating a cycle of peer-to-peer learning where students feel both empowered and included.\r\n\r\nThese game days are especially meaningful for our moderate to severe special needs students, as they provide an additional opportunity to interact with their typical peers, form genuine friendships, and reinforce the academic and social skills they are learning in their classrooms.\r\n\r\nYour generosity makes these moments possible, reminding our students that they are valued and supported by the wider community. We are truly grateful for your kindness and commitment to helping our young scholars thrive.","fullyFundedDate":1745362883628,"projectUrl":"project/playing-math-games-at-lunch/9265890/","projectTitle":"Playing Math Games at Lunch","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Richardson","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp3106937_orig.jpg?crop=849,849,x0,y0&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1569903871016","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/3106937"},{"teacherId":1417495,"projectId":9084049,"letterContent":"My students are thoroughly enjoying the tools we received for their daily jobs!
