Our students use it to explore colors, shapes, patterns, and cause-and-effect while strengthening fine motor skills and early math and literacy concepts. It also encourages collaboration, creativity, and calm, focused play—making it especially helpful for learners with different learning styles and needs.","fullyFundedDate":1755521958799,"projectUrl":"project/turn-on-the-light-for-learning/9369739/","projectTitle":"Turn on the Light for Learning","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Windt","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp9298246_orig.jpg?crop=1:1,smart&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1727294003340","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9298246"},{"teacherId":3968987,"projectId":10054878,"letterContent":"We are so thankful for your generous donation, allowing us to bring in more clear backpacks for our wonderful preschoolers.

Many expressed happiness and comfort knowing food was available, and this reassurance has helped reduce stress and improve classroom behavior. Having snacks readily available has also supported lessons in sharing, routines, and care for one another.\r\n\r\nWith this support, my students are better able to participate in literacy, social-emotional learning, and hands-on activities without the distraction of hunger.
