For instance, when we used \"Feed the Woozle\", I saw them excited to work hard so they got an opportunity to feed the Woozle. They were laughing and engaged the entire session and did not want to stop when time was over. I am a strong believer that excitement encourages learning. \r\nIn the end, our team was excited and as a result, our students are excited too!","fullyFundedDate":1758891176707,"projectUrl":"project/rules-of-the-game/9484254/","projectTitle":"Rules of the Game","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Mandy","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp7854837_orig.jpg?crop=853,853,x264,y0&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1620333262114","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/7854837"},{"teacherId":7854837,"projectId":9174313,"letterContent":"My students have been so excited to come to speech therapy to use all our new materials!
