Your generous donations of fidgets, snacks, and sanitizing wipes have made a meaningful difference in our students' daily learning experience.\r\nStudents use the fidgets during lessons, independent work, and assessments to help manage stress and stay focused—especially during longer problem-solving tasks. Snacks are available for students who arrive hungry or need extra energy during challenging lessons, helping them stay engaged and ready to learn. The snacks were also used for rewards when students went above and beyond. The sanitizing wipes are used daily to clean desks, calculators, and shared supplies, promoting a healthy and responsible classroom environment.\r\nWhen students first saw the materials, they were excited and grateful. Several asked if the supplies were really for them, and many thanked me right away. One memorable moment occurred during the teacher-led part of a lesson. One of my student who is always sleeping the class used a fidget to stay awake and focused which led to him participating in the lesson and understanding the concept. A few other students requested fidgets to use during the lesson. The room was noticeably more engaged and collaborative. If I see a student disengaged or a bit hyperactive, I would walk by and quietly hand them a fidget. This usually helps.\r\nYour support helped create a classroom where students feel cared for, focused, and ready to succeed. \r\nOne project that my students just completed was to create an Algebra portfolio with puzzles, games, comic, posters and other creative items. I will use these products in the spring semester for instruction and enforcement. \r\nThank you for investing in our students and their learning!","fullyFundedDate":1758202966918,"projectUrl":"project/fidgety-mathematicians/9610859/","projectTitle":"Fidgety Mathematicians","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Waugh-Lewis","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-1_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9845860"},{"teacherId":9484683,"projectId":9557095,"letterContent":"Thanks to your generous support, my students are actively using these new resources during lessons and hands-on practice activities.
