When the box of prizes and motivational items arrived, my students were *beyond excited*. Their eyes lit up as we opened each package, and the energy in our classroom instantly shifted. It was like a mini celebration, and they couldn't believe that people they had never met cared enough to support their learning journey. For students who often struggle academically and emotionally, this moment was more than just about the toys and snacks — it was a reminder that they are seen, valued, and capable.\r\n\r\nWe've been using these prizes as part of our classroom incentive system tied to personal reading goals and behavior targets. Each time a student meets a milestone, they earn a reward of their choice from the prize bin. One student, who rarely engaged with reading assignments before, now asks to read aloud during group time so he can get closer to earning a prize. Another student who used to get discouraged easily now pushes through challenging reading passages, motivated by the positive reinforcement. These small tokens have truly made a *big* impact — not just in academics, but in building confidence and persistence.\r\n\r\nOur next step is to continue encouraging students to set weekly reading goals and track their progress. The excitement and sense of accomplishment they feel when they meet their targets is fueling a love for learning that we hope will last a lifetime. Your kindness has sparked motivation in my students that I couldn't have created alone — and for that, we are deeply grateful.","fullyFundedDate":1687536417789,"projectUrl":"project/grow-reward/7287817/","projectTitle":"Grow, Reward","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Butler","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp3711667_orig.jpg?crop=467,467,x0,y245&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1565903300163","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/3711667"},{"teacherId":1549089,"projectId":7260057,"letterContent":"I am writing to express my heartfelt thanks for your generous donation to our project.
