We now have three pencil sharpening stations around the room. Students can sharpen their own pencils when they are dull. This allows them better motor control in their handwriting.\r\nDeveloping fine motor skills is a big part of first grade. It is much easier for young children to write neatly when they have sharp pencils.\r\nThank you for supporting education.","fullyFundedDate":1778000864260,"projectUrl":"project/we-need-to-stay-sharp/10164472/","projectTitle":"We Need to Stay Sharp!","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Harden","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp502020_orig.jpg?crop=403,403,x206,y10&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1603408842642","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/502020"},{"teacherId":502020,"projectId":10176883,"letterContent":"Thank you so much for funding this project.
