The moment the students saw the new prizes and rewards, their faces lit up with excitement and joy. These incentives have become a powerful tool for encouraging positive behavior, hard work, kindness, and academic effort throughout the school day. Students are motivated to stay focused, complete assignments, participate in lessons, and make positive choices because they know their efforts are being recognized and celebrated in meaningful ways.\r\nWe have already begun using the treasure box and incentives as part of our classroom management and reward system. One special moment happened when a student who had been struggling with staying on task worked hard all week to earn a reward from the treasure box. The pride and confidence on their face when they finally got to choose an item was unforgettable. The incentives have helped create a positive classroom culture where students encourage one another, celebrate successes, and feel excited to come to school each day. Even small rewards have made a big impact on student motivation and engagement.","fullyFundedDate":1771612137686,"projectUrl":"project/treasure-box-treats-for-first-graders/10089564/","projectTitle":"Treasure Box Treats for First Graders","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Higuita","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp5623940_orig.jpg?crop=1:1,smart&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1721091201300","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/5623940"},{"teacherId":4049699,"projectId":9798225,"letterContent":"Thank you so much for all your donations to our project.

They are incredibly grateful for the new recorders and the opportunity to play a pre band instrument. \r\n\r\nRecorders are so important in the elementary school curriculum because they give students the opportunity to experience a pre band instrument and prepare them for middle school band. \r\n\r\nMy students are following a curriculum called \"Recorder Karate\". With each new note they learn, they earn a new \"belt\" for their recorder starting at \"white belt\" until they master their recorder skills and earn \"black belt\".

Our science lab looks better than ever, and the students have really enjoyed exploring the posters. This science lab serves students from kindergarten through fifth grade, and covers an abundance of topics.\r\n\r\nOur kindergarteners have really enjoyed the various life-cycle posters. The cycle of complete metamorphosis a frog undergoes has been their favorite, with the chicken life cycle as a close second place. \r\n\r\nThe fifth graders have already used the force and motion posters to help guide their thinking. We conducted a lab on force and motion using hot wheels tracks, and the vocabulary and visuals from the poster really helped to enhance their thinking and understanding of these concepts.","fullyFundedDate":1757423208515,"projectUrl":"project/visually-appealing-k-5-science-lab/9677384/","projectTitle":"Visually Appealing K-5 Science Lab","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Peepolson","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-6_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/ms-nicholson"},{"teacherId":10058452,"projectId":9420114,"letterContent":"I can't thank you enough for the kindness and generosity you've shown my students. Your donations truly brightened our classroom and brought so much joy to my kids.\r\n\r\nWhen the boxes arrived, their faces lit up with excitement. They could hardly wait to open everything and explore what was inside. The toys have made recess something they really look forward to. I see them laughing, playing together, and including everyone in new games. The fidgets have been such a big help in our calm corner, especially for students who need a quick break to reset and refocus. They love having a quiet space where they can take a deep breath and then come back ready to learn.\r\n\r\nThe treasure box has become one of their favorite parts of the week! It's been amazing to see how motivated they are to work hard and show kindness just for a chance to pick out a small prize. And the snacks... those have made such a difference. Some of my students come to school hungry, and having a quick snack helps them stay focused and comfortable while learning.\r\n\r\nYour generosity has gone far beyond the items you gave. You've helped create a classroom filled with joy, comfort, and belonging. My students know that people they've never even met care about them, and that means the world to them and to me.\r\n\r\nThank you from the bottom of my heart for supporting us and making such a positive difference in our classroom.","fullyFundedDate":1753144909907,"projectUrl":"project/goodies-and-gear-for-growing-minds/9420114/","projectTitle":"Goodies and Gear for Growing Minds","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Wise","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp10058452_orig.jpg?crop=1217,1217,x185,y0&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1750191228645","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/10058452"},{"teacherId":2385819,"projectId":9266453,"letterContent":"Sorry that this letter is a little behind schedule.

The children loved interacting with the new and different hands-on materials each morning. The biggest challenge was convincing them that mixing all the Play-Doh never works out well, because it always becomes brown. They enjoyed working together to build elaborate constructions, including \"cars\" and \"trains\" with the bristle blocks. They loved the foam, especially once they realized they could build towers that would stay standing, which does not always work out with Play-Doh! In the last week of summer school, we finally allowed the children to \"mix\" both the Play-Doh and the foam. They loved observing that while the foam did not change colors, becoming \"rainbow,\" the Play-Doh eventually did become a messy brown color.","fullyFundedDate":1743097385063,"projectUrl":"project/school-supplies-for-summer-school-steam/9186852/","projectTitle":"School supplies for summer school STEAM fun","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Beck","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/272x272/tp2385819_272x272.jpg?width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1532732060256","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/2385819"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_46668","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":426,"numTeachers":39,"percentFrplEligible":83,"percentAsian":0,"percentBlack":14,"percentWhite":19,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":58,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","percentHawaiianImputed":0,"percentMultiracialImputed":6,"gradesServed":"Pre-K - 5","studentTeacherRatio":"10.9:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"SUBURBAN","ncesMetroType":"SUBURB_LARGE"},"inStateSupporters":67.6,"schoolId":46668,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Conway Elementary School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Conway Elementary School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/florida/orange-county-public-schools/conway-elementary-school/46668"}
