Our students are using the new gymnastics mat during our gymnastics unit to practice rolling, balancing, jumping, landing, and other age-appropriate gymnastics skills. The additional mat space gives students a safer and more comfortable surface to practice new skills while building confidence and body control.\r\n\r\nWhen our students first saw the new mat, they were excited to get started! They immediately recognized that they had a new space to move, practice, and challenge themselves. For many students, gymnastics skills can feel intimidating at first, but having a quality mat helps them feel more secure as they try something new and work toward mastering each skill.\r\n\r\nOur next steps are to continue building our gymnastics skills through stations and small-group activities. Students will progress from basic movements to more challenging combinations while focusing on safe landings, balance, coordination, and perseverance. We want every student to experience success, whether they are learning their first forward roll or challenging themselves with a new gymnastics skill.\r\n\r\nBecause of your support, our students have another resource that allows them to move safely, build confidence, challenge themselves, and have fun while learning.

Because of you, our 4th graders now have access to comfortable reading chairs, exciting new books, and the organizational tools that make our reading challenge possible.\r\n\r\nSince receiving these materials, our classroom has become an even more inviting space for reading. Students love settling into the comfy chairs with a book in hand, and the new titles have sparked curiosity and enthusiasm across all genres. Many students are choosing books they might not have tried before, simply because they now feel encouraged and excited to explore.\r\n\r\nOur Genre Challenge has been a wonderful motivator. As students read different types of books, they earn color-coded beads and track their progress. This system has helped students set goals, reflect on their reading habits, and take pride in their accomplishments. It has also encouraged meaningful conversations about books, authors, and favorite genres.\r\n\r\nMost importantly, this project has helped students grow as confident, motivated readers. They are building reading stamina, strengthening comprehension skills, and learning that reading can be both relaxing and rewarding. The organizational materials you provided keep everything running smoothly and allow students to take ownership of the challenge.\r\n\r\nYour support has created a classroom culture where reading feels joyful, personal, and empowering. You didn't just provide supplies—you helped nurture a lifelong love of books and learning in every child.\r\n\r\nThank you for believing in our readers and making this experience possible.","fullyFundedDate":1765204960625,"projectUrl":"project/curl-up-read-cozy-seating-books-and/9949395/","projectTitle":"Curl Up & Read: Cozy Seating, Books, and Genre Challenge","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Bednar","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp10256981_orig.jpg?crop=1:1,smart&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1757640815088","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/10256981"},{"teacherId":10256981,"projectId":9946984,"letterContent":"Thank you for your incredible generosity in supporting our BreakoutEDU project. Because of you, our 4th graders now have access to engaging, hands-on challenges that bring teamwork, critical thinking, and communication to life in our classroom.\r\nSince receiving the BreakoutEDU kit and subscription, students have been working together to solve puzzles, analyze clues, and persevere through complex problems. Every breakout requires them to listen carefully to one another, share ideas clearly, and build on each other's thinking. It has been amazing to watch students grow in confidence as they learn that every voice matters and that success comes from collaboration.\r\n\r\nThese challenges reinforce the skills we practice daily in reading, math, science, and social studies. Students apply vocabulary strategies, interpret texts, use logic, and test hypotheses—all while staying deeply engaged. At the same time, they are developing essential \"soft skills\" such as patience, leadership, flexibility, and respectful communication.\r\n\r\nOne of the most meaningful outcomes has been seeing students support one another. They celebrate each other's breakthroughs, encourage classmates who feel stuck, and reflect on how they worked as a team. BreakoutEDU has helped create a classroom culture where students feel safe taking risks, sharing ideas, and learning from mistakes.\r\n\r\nYour support has made learning more interactive, meaningful, and joyful for my students. You didn't just provide materials—you helped build confident problem-solvers, thoughtful communicators, and strong collaborators who will carry these skills with them far beyond 4th grade.\r\n\r\nThank you for believing in our students and investing in their growth.","fullyFundedDate":1765131228517,"projectUrl":"project/unlocking-learning-breakoutedu-adventur/9946984/","projectTitle":"Unlocking Learning: BreakoutEDU Adventures for Collaborative 4th Graders!","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Bednar","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp10256981_orig.jpg?crop=1:1,smart&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1757640815088","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/10256981"},{"teacherId":4835725,"projectId":9448904,"letterContent":"My students want to thank you for your generous donations to the project.
