It's been fun to see them work towards this goal. In addition, having a printer in the room near me has made it much easier when I have students who are absent and need copies of past assignments. Historically, I would have needed to wait until I had a free moment, before or after school, and then print the papers for them. This causes a holdup, not allowing them to get their work done promptly. One of the favorite things I got was a large box of pens for my students. Each student received their own fancy pen to use, and each incoming student, as they move in, also gets a pen. They love using them!","fullyFundedDate":1755725934967,"projectUrl":"project/ready-to-learn-and-have-fun/9577002/","projectTitle":"Ready to Learn and Have Fun","teacherDisplayName":"Mr. Kjar","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp5374032_orig.jpg?crop=3265,3265,x0,y217&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1628531723590","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/5374032"},{"teacherId":9654359,"projectId":9542156,"letterContent":"Thank you so much for the generous supplies and resources you provided.
