The snacks engaged students who would normally not be so eager to participate. During group work, I heard students tell each other to check their answers because they did not want to lose points. In order to earn snacks the whole team needed to have the right answer and show their work supporting their answer. If the entire team had their work correctly completed they would earn points. \r\n\r\nThe snacks were also helpful with a particular student that had a headache because he chose to not eat the cafeteria food. I told the student that if they tried their best effort I would give him a snack. Soon after, he started to dialogue with his group and learning started to happen. The student was given his snack, and he was thankful.","fullyFundedDate":1787283307798,"projectUrl":"project/snacks-are-a-must/10525035/","projectTitle":"Snacks Are a Must","teacherDisplayName":"Mr. Lomeli","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-7_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9785012"},{"teacherId":9785012,"projectId":10233456,"letterContent":"Thank you for funding my project.

Before this donation, we would borrow soccer balls from the physical education department. It was a constant hassle having to checkout materials, and the process was made more difficult because we needed a specific key that only the coaches had access to. Furthermore, when our games ended I had to return the materials next morning since the people who had the access key were not in school anymore.\r\n\r\nFor this and many other reasons, we are grateful. We are now better able to hold soccer drills. Having multiple balls allowed us to get more creative with our practice drills. During our practice drills the pinnies made it much more efficient to create teams on the spot and saved us a lot of time.","fullyFundedDate":1772934852287,"projectUrl":"project/soccer-club/9970421/","projectTitle":"Soccer Club","teacherDisplayName":"Mr. Lomeli","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-7_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9785012"},{"teacherId":9785012,"projectId":9928249,"letterContent":"Once the resources arrived we immediately put them to use. We were working on incorporating art to the end of a math unit. The markers were quite popular amongst the students. Students were able to make colorful activities and present to the whole class. \r\n\r\nThe big motivator for students was when they knew they would be able to take home some toys. This truly motivated them to try their best. I witnessed how some students who would normally not engage with class lessons, suddenly they were asking questions and wanting to get the correct answers.\r\n\r\nThank you for supporting my students.

I have a large number of student who come from economically challenged homes and having snacks around for them has encouraged and enabled them to learn. \r\n\r\nOn behalf of the students, I want to thank you for your contribution.

This donation was a blessing to a large group of students, some who are currently undergoing extreme poverty.\r\n\r\nOne of the students is currently experiencing high levels of neglect. In fact, the student is currently sleeping at a local church. He was picked to receive a food basket. Immediately after receiving the basket, the student's eyes started welling up, and gave a strong hug of appreciation to all the staff around him.

Each game required students to use logic, strategic planning, and reasoning—skills that directly align with 7th grade math standards such as problem-solving, analyzing patterns, and making justified decisions. Students were encouraged to explain their strategies using math vocabulary and reflect on how different choices led to different outcomes.\r\n\r\nThe impact on my students was powerful. Many students who often feel anxious or disengaged during traditional math lessons became more confident and motivated. The games created a low-stress environment where students could practice perseverance, learn from mistakes, and think critically without fear of being \"wrong.\" I observed students naturally applying mathematical concepts such as probability, ratios, logical reasoning, and multi-step thinking while collaborating with their peers.\r\n\r\nThese materials also supported social and academic growth. Students practiced communicating their reasoning, listening to alternate strategies, and respectfully challenging one another's thinking. Math conversations became richer, and students began to see math as something they do, not just something they write on paper.\r\n\r\nYour generosity made it possible to transform math learning into an engaging and student-centered experience.
