Our first project was to draw and then paint our school busses.\r\n We all enjoyed painting and as you can see on one of the pictures sent, how each is painting is original even though it is the same project. I enjoy seeing what each student creates and how 'there' is no wrong way.\r\n Painting will be done throughout the school year and as they become more and more familiar with the paint colors and different types of strokes, I believe, the students imagination will grow and their creativity will go into a new level.\r\nThank you, again, for making this possible for each one them!","fullyFundedDate":1787234386553,"projectUrl":"project/first-grade-artists/10476874/","projectTitle":"First Grade Artists","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Morgan","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-1_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/10590221"},{"teacherId":10045587,"projectId":10349767,"letterContent":"**Thank You for Supporting Our First Graders! **\r\n\r\nThank you so much for supporting our classroom! Your generosity is helping create a classroom where my first graders can feel organized, confident, and supported each day.\r\n\r\nThe pencil boxes may seem like a simple supply, but they will make a big difference for my students. Having their own place to keep their pencils, crayons, and other supplies will help them learn responsibility and independence. Instead of searching for supplies, they can be ready to learn and take pride in caring for their own belongings.\r\n\r\nThe social-emotional resource will help us with another very important part of first grade—learning about feelings and how to handle them. My students are still learning how to manage big emotions, solve problems, show kindness, and work through frustrations. Having a resource we can turn to will give us opportunities to talk about these skills, practice them together, and remind students that it is okay to have big feelings and that they have tools to work through them.\r\n\r\nThank you for seeing the importance of supporting the **whole child**.

When children bounce a ball, they are exploring gravity, force, motion, and energy. When they kick or throw, they are experimenting with speed, direction, angles, and trajectories.
