The gum was beneficial during our fall testing period. The snacks filled grumbling bellies, so the kids were able to focus on their work. Kids perform better when their biological needs are met!\r\n\r\nSome of the favorite resources you helped to purchase were fidgets. When the kids are working on their math, they enjoy having a fidget in one hand as they figure out multiplication in the other. The stools we were able to order allow for quick transitions as we move from whole-group to small-group activities. Less downtime means more learning time.\r\n\r\nThank you so much for helping us access tools to keep our minds and bodies regulated.","fullyFundedDate":1758824818957,"projectUrl":"project/regulate-to-learn/9551652/","projectTitle":"Regulate to Learn","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Hallowell","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/272x272/tp2429287_272x272.jpg?width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1450869116316","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/2429287"},{"teacherId":9099596,"projectId":8408738,"letterContent":"Thank you so much for donating to my classroom.

Students have accessed these resources from my last year group to my current group. \r\n\r\nThank you again, greatly, for supporting my third grade classes, past and previous.

The kids are SO excited about the new materials! They are super motivated to learn their town, city, state and country in order to earn a globe squeeze ball! I had to order some replacement items due to availability and they LOVE the 2 new Chris Van Dusen books- he is our featured author this month and I have been using the Mr. Magee series as mentor texts for our current writing unit! They so love finding Mr. Magee and his little dog Dee in the illustrations in his other books, too.\r\n They are super excited about getting new book bags and new desk nameplates as well as Summer Reading bags. They will have to wait until closer to the end of school for the big reveal of their filled Summer Book Bags and the Summer Reading Challenge! The suspense is so much fun and they have all become stellar readers!\r\n They just love getting a paw notecard from me for extra effort, drawings, gifts and just for encouragement when needed! That goes not just for my present class, but past students through fifth grade as well! Modeling showing gratitude, writing, reading and \"noticing\" others in this way has huge impact in multiple ways!\r\n They can't WAIT to use the new rulers next week as we embark on a cross curricular unit of measurement and mapping- getting a cool ruler to take home will encourage them to share their new learning with families and to PRACTICE their new skills! \r\n The giant bag of dum dum lollipops was met with shrieks of joy- we had run out of several preferred flavors! They fondly recalled getting sunglasses when THEY came to \"Move Up\" day last June and are so excited about telling my NEXT class about EVERYTHING First Grade in June.\r\n Thank you again for your generous donation- we are all extremely grateful for your thoughtfulness and support!","fullyFundedDate":1742944575960,"projectUrl":"project/completely-random-restocks-for-an-amazin/9191080/","projectTitle":"Completely Random Restocks For An Amazing First Grade Classroom!","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Stover","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/272x272/tp3216806_272x272.jpg?width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1516474979069","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/trae-stover"},{"teacherId":9309515,"projectId":8631778,"letterContent":"Thank you for your generous support with your donation to supply our classroom with snowshoes! Students were very excited to open the packages and eager for enough snow to arrive to use them. Students became more engaged in weather predictions and tracking patterns. When enough snow finally arrived, students bundled up in their winter gear, including the Dino mittens included in the packages! Each student took ownership of bringing their own snowshoes out to the field and was ready to put on their new temporary feet.\r\nIn the fresh snow, students transferred our classroom conversations and literacy into dialogue while maneuvering and using unfamiliar gross motor movements to traverse the snow. The excitement for many students lingered after their first experience, ready to have more opportunities to practice!\r\nAs the snow melts away, the memories of our experiences remain vivid, with students frequently recalling our outdoor learning adventures during classroom discussions.","fullyFundedDate":1733164209783,"projectUrl":"project/crunch-crunch-snowshoe-monster-tracks/8631778/","projectTitle":"Crunch!
