The day our binoculars arrived, my students were eager with excitement and wanted to get their hands on their new binoculars. They couldn't wait to head outside and try them out. The very first time we used them, one student excitedly said, \"I can see the bird's feathers up close!\" Another said,\" I can see one camouflaged in the trees!\" At that moment I saw just how powerful these binoculars are for sparking curiosity and joy.\r\nNow, every time we go outside, the binoculars turn a simple walk into a true adventure. Students take turns spotting birds, using our bird book for identification, and sharing their discoveries with their classmates. The cardinal and the blue jays have become our favorites. This project has given them a gift that will last a lifetime.","fullyFundedDate":1745716440247,"projectUrl":"project/little-bird-watchers-big-discoveries/9262862/","projectTitle":"Little Bird Watchers, Big Discoveries","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Sheriff","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-5_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/4305169"},{"teacherId":4195916,"projectId":3040510,"letterContent":"On behalf of the students, staff, and families of PLE, I would like to extend our heartfelt gratitude for your generous donation.
