Your generosity has made a meaningful difference in our classroom, and I am truly grateful for your kindness and belief in my students.\r\n\r\nBecause of your donations, my students now have access to snacks that help them stay focused, energized, and ready to learn throughout the day. Many of my students come to school hungry or without enough to sustain them, and having these snacks readily available has helped remove a major barrier to their learning. I've seen improved concentration, better participation, and an overall boost in their mood and engagement.\r\n\r\nIn addition, the incentives you provided have been incredibly motivating. They have helped me reinforce positive behaviors, celebrate student achievements, and build a classroom culture where effort and growth are recognized. My students are more eager to participate, complete their work, and support one another.\r\n\r\nBeyond the materials themselves, your support has shown my students that people care about them and believe in their success. That feeling alone is powerful and inspiring.\r\nThank you again for investing in my students and helping create a supportive, encouraging learning environment. Your generosity is truly appreciated and will have a lasting impact.","fullyFundedDate":1765440559472,"projectUrl":"project/support-student-success-with-snacks-and/9776042/","projectTitle":"Support Student Success With Snacks and Incentives","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Deterville","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp10269213_orig.png?crop=212,212,x73,y0&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1759185962837","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/10269213"},{"teacherId":9474812,"projectId":9057905,"letterContent":"Thank you for allowing my scholars to run this investigation. Eventhough we ran into some difficulties, we were able to incorporate coding, teacheable machine, and physical computing when discussing about Daphnia Magna Carta. We were able to compare a multi cellular organism to a unicellular organims. We were able to compare the daphnia to a plant cells or an animal cell. \r\nWe used the microbit to show the heart beat. \r\n\r\n However in the liquid, we had a tough time measuring the heart rate of one daphnia eventhough we had a hoover cam. And keeping the Daphnia alive was not an easy task because the spring break, they ran out of algae.\r\nHowever despite these limitations and constraints, my students had a productive time learning about a water flea in connection to AI. The students were excited, and scared at first. And using teachable machine as a tool was an innovating way to expose the scholars to large learning model. So thank you, thank you, thank you.
