One specific example is incorporating the snacks we received from donors into classroom activities. Students use them as a reward for participation, to celebrate achievements, or simply as a small treat to help fuel their minds during lessons. These resources have added an extra layer of excitement and engagement, giving students something to look forward to while they work on projects or participate in discussions.\r\n\r\nWhen students first saw the snacks, their reactions were full of enthusiasm and curiosity—they were thrilled to have a tangible reward that recognized their effort and dedication. Moving forward, we plan to continue using these resources to encourage positive classroom behavior and support learning. Students will be able to earn snacks through participation in upcoming lessons and projects, helping them stay motivated while also reinforcing the skills and concepts we are currently exploring in class.","fullyFundedDate":1755740500725,"projectUrl":"project/fueling-minds-one-snack-at-a-time/9380849/","projectTitle":"Fueling Minds, One Snack at a Time!","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Martinazzi","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp10044312_orig.jpg?crop=2661,2661,x252,y695&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1748349259593","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/10044312"},{"teacherId":10044312,"projectId":9380772,"letterContent":"My students are using the Calming Corner in so many wonderful ways.

They were eager to explore the space, test out the seating, and settle in on the cozy carpet. The area quickly became a favorite spot in the classroom, and it's clear how much they appreciate having a space designed just for them.
