These tricycles have truly transformed our outdoor playtime and learning experiences.\r\n\r\nOur students use the tricycles daily during recess and structured play sessions. They are not only having a blast riding around but also developing important motor skills like balance, coordination, and spatial awareness. One memorable moment was when a shy student, who usually hesitates to join group activities, gained confidence as they pedaled the tricycle around, smiling from ear to ear. It was a joy to see how these tricycles sparked new friendships and cooperative play as students took turns and cheered each other on.\r\n\r\nWhen the tricycles first arrived, the children's eyes lit up with excitement and curiosity. They eagerly lined up for their turn, and the energy in the classroom and playground was full of laughter and enthusiasm. It was clear that these new resources brought a fresh wave of joy and engagement.\r\n\r\nThank you again for your support in making our classroom a more dynamic and joyful place. Your generosity is making a real difference in our students' learning and growth!\r\n\r\nWarmly,\r\nStacy Geddings\r\n4K Teacher","fullyFundedDate":1759257411592,"projectUrl":"project/pre-school-pit-crew/9671171/","projectTitle":"Pre-School Pit Crew","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Geddings","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/272x272/tp1473034_272x272.jpg?width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1549226770276","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/stacy-geddings"},{"teacherId":9891282,"projectId":9239507,"letterContent":"Thank you so much for your generous donation to our project. The math books for kindergarten have made a huge difference for my students!\r\n\r\nWe now begin every math lesson with a read-aloud that's directly tied to the math concept we're learning. These stories don't just capture my students' attention—they help bring the math to life in a way that's engaging and meaningful. It's amazing to see how much more excited and confident they are during math time.\r\n\r\nEvery day during Math Circle, the first question my students ask is, \"What book are we going to read today?\" Many of them even choose to reread their favorite math books during center time. These books are helping foster a true love for both math and reading—something I never expected to happen so naturally at this age.\r\n\r\nBecause of your support, my students are not only enjoying math more, but they are also better able to understand the concepts and meet their learning goals.
