You would have thought it was Christmas morning by the reaction on their faces. \r\n\r\nI work with special education students. It is difficult to get the majority of them motivated to do their work and/or stay motivated. Having snacks that they like to use as incentives has really helped with the work completion and behavior. \r\nI have written many projects through Donors Choose over the last several years, and have never been disappointed with the generosity.","fullyFundedDate":1787284196862,"projectUrl":"project/food-for-thought/10398356/","projectTitle":"Food for Thought","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Tomlin","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp1674659_orig.jpg?crop=1:1,smart&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1784676374520","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/1674659"},{"teacherId":2833161,"projectId":10391528,"letterContent":"When you funded our classroom library project for copies of Little House on the Prairie, Shiloh, and Because of Winn-Dixie, you gave my fourth graders far more than just books. You gave them an invitation to step into new worlds, walk in someone else's shoes, and discover a genuine love for reading.\r\nIn a fourth grade classroom students are transitioning from learning to read to truly reading to learn, and finding the right book makes all the difference. Having these specific titles in our classroom has completely transformed our reading block.\r\nBecause of your generosity, my students don't just sit quietly during independent reading time, they eagerly rush to grab these books, trade them with classmates, and excitedly ask, \"Can we read just one more chapter?\"\r\nThank you for investing in my students' imaginations, empathy, and academic growth. You have made a lasting impact on this group of fourth graders, and we are deeply grateful. Thank you so much for your generosity.","fullyFundedDate":1785295443204,"projectUrl":"project/classic-novels-for-curious-4th-graders/10391528/","projectTitle":"Classic Novels for Curious 4th Graders","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Greenwood","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/272x272/tp2833161_272x272.jpg?width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1470673042773","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/jgreenwood"},{"teacherId":1674659,"projectId":10032691,"letterContent":"I am writing to express my gratitude for your generous donation for my project. Thanks to your support, I am able to have ink (both colored and black) for the rest of the year.\r\nProjects look so much nicer when they can be printed in color. Worksheets for special needs students that actually look like the real objects/people make it easier for them to recognize the them outside of the school setting. Things like money, safety signs, road signs just to name a few things.\r\n \r\n It is also nice to have snacks available when students come in asking for something because they are hungry. I work with students who have disabilities but the regular education students know that they are welcome to come into my room and get snacks or supplies when they need them.

Students always get excited when we get boxes with new things for our room. It makes them take pride in our classroom when we get nice things for them to use and enjoy. I get excited when I get new supplies to use. lol I also love to see the kids faces light up when they get new things, it's like Christmas morning.\r\n \r\nIt's nice for students to have a place to hang out when they are done with their work and socialize. Social skills are an important skill that many are lacking, so having this hang out place encourages that. They also have nice chairs to sit in when they are working on the computers.
