The children were absolutely thrilled to receive their own individual kits—they could hardly believe they each had one to themselves.\r\n\r\nThe Play-Doh kits have served as more than just a fun activity. They have become a valuable learning tool in our classroom. We have incorporated them into both our math and English Language Arts lessons. Students have used the Play-Doh to build numbers, shapes, letters, and words, making learning more interactive and engaging. It has especially increased their enthusiasm for math, as they eagerly participate in hands-on lessons involving the kits.\r\n\r\nI plan to continue using the Play-Doh kits throughout the rest of the school year for various educational activities, including lessons on shapes, numbers, and punctuation.\r\n\r\nAs a teacher in an inner-city school, I work with many students from low-income households who may not often receive new or personal items like this. Your kindness has made a meaningful difference—not only by giving my students something special, but by helping to foster joy, creativity, and a love of learning in our classroom.\r\n\r\nThank you again for your thoughtfulness and support.","fullyFundedDate":1734457586776,"projectUrl":"project/build-some-holiday-cheer-with-play-doh/8934709/","projectTitle":"Build Some Holiday Cheer With Play-Doh!","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Borgia","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-5_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/6824909"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_89694","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":900,"numTeachers":null,"percentFrplEligible":93,"percentAsian":5,"percentBlack":34,"percentWhite":35,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":9,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"K - 12","studentTeacherRatio":null,"demographicsDataSource":"MDR District Weighted Average","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":false,"metroType":"URBAN","ncesMetroType":null},"inStateSupporters":72.5,"schoolId":89694,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Cyber Choice Academy on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Cyber Choice Academy","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/pennsylvania/erie-city-school-district/emerson-gridley-elementary-school/89694"}
