Going to a math competition is intimidating for many of our students. Starting out the day with a fun pencil pouch with special pencils, erasers, sharpener, and snacks takes the edge off and makes them feel supported and encouraged. We have over 150 kids participate over several competitions. So far, our 6th, 7th, and 8th graders have gone to their regional competition. The 7th and 8th graders qualified to go to Masters (State). Our 5th graders go this Friday to their competition, and the 4th graders go in a few weeks. For our 4th graders, it's their first time competing, and they especially love the pencil pouches.\r\n\r\nThank you for supporting our math program and making this a positive experience for our students, so they will want to participate year after year.","fullyFundedDate":1768605437272,"projectUrl":"project/basic-supplies-make-math-competition-day/9976570/","projectTitle":"Basic Supplies Make Math Competition Day Special","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Carlson","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp2264294_orig.png?crop=271,271,x0,y78&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1629685528688","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/pollycarlson"},{"teacherId":2264294,"projectId":9958979,"letterContent":"Thank you so so much for providing these branding supplies for our robotics team. The tiny Guatemalan worry dolls were a huge hit as team favors to hand out at the robotics competition. They stood out as being something different and the perfect support for nervous students. They fit perfectly with the team's focus on Mayan archaeology and centering local indigenous people in archaeological research. They also served for great conversation starters. The team really stood out because of their enthusiasm for their project, culture, and reaching out to others.\r\n\r\nAdditionally, the headbands ended up being the perfect addition to the team's signature pink hats. They were a fun way to make the hats look different while still being the same. They perfectly held items that students wanted to add to their hats, in particular a few worry dolls and print-outs of their favorite internet meme, which were also a part of their team theme (The Mayan Memers). In fact, they looked so good that I think we may use some kind of similar headband in future years.\r\n\r\nI was so touched that the funding came in soon enough to have the supplies ready to hand out at the competition.\r\n\r\nI truly can't thank you enough for supporting our team.","fullyFundedDate":1765990745511,"projectUrl":"project/experiential-learning-robotics-team-pr/9958979/","projectTitle":"Experiential Learning - Robotics Team Presentation, Branding & Communication Supplies","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Carlson","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp2264294_orig.png?crop=271,271,x0,y78&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1629685528688","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/pollycarlson"},{"teacherId":2264294,"projectId":10008810,"letterContent":"Thank you so much for providing these books for my classroom.

Then the kids used left-over craft supplies from some other DonorsChoose projects to really make their creations special and unique. Pipe cleaners, beads, and sticks to added trees to their cities.
