The snacks have been especially helpful as rewards for students who consistently turn in their homework. This has encouraged students to take more responsibility for completing and turning in their assignments, while also giving them something to look forward to.\r\nThe different colored Expo markers have also made a big impact on instruction. I use the markers to draw magnets, diagrams, and labels in different colors on the board. Using different colors helps students visually separate information and better understand what they are learning. Students were excited to see the new materials and worked hard during our lessons and activities.\r\nOverall, these resources have helped make learning more engaging, visual, and rewarding for my students. I have loved seeing their excitement, effort, and increased participation in the classroom.","fullyFundedDate":1776471951419,"projectUrl":"project/launchpad-learning-lab/10042377/","projectTitle":"Launchpad Learning Lab","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. McCarthy","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp10412131_orig.jpg?crop=1:1,smart&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1769839333527","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/10412131"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_16399","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":505,"numTeachers":49,"percentFrplEligible":95,"percentAsian":0,"percentBlack":57,"percentWhite":24,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":16,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","percentHawaiianImputed":0,"percentMultiracialImputed":1,"gradesServed":"Pre-K - 5","studentTeacherRatio":"10.3:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"RURAL","ncesMetroType":"RURAL_DISTANT"},"inStateSupporters":56.3,"schoolId":16399,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Union Parish Elementary School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Union Parish Elementary School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/louisiana/union-parish-school-district/farmerville-elementary-school/16399"}
