Your support has truly made a difference in my students' daily learning experiences. The excitement on their faces when we opened the box was priceless! The new materials—Uno cards, Legos, printer ink, a translator, and Jenga—have already begun transforming our classroom into a more engaging, hands-on, and inclusive learning environment.\r\n\r\nThe Legos have quickly become a favorite, fostering creativity and teamwork as students build structures and solve problems together. Uno and Jenga have brought a new level of energy to our classroom, allowing students to practice social-emotional skills like turn-taking, patience, and strategic thinking in a fun way. The translator has been a game-changer for our English Language Learner, helping them feel more included and confident in classroom discussions. Additionally, having printer ink allows us to provide essential resources like student-created books, graphic organizers, and engaging assignments that support learning in meaningful ways.\r\n\r\nOne student in particular has especially taken to the Legos. She has begun designing intricate models and eagerly explains her thought process to her classmates, strengthening her communication and problem-solving skills. Another student has found comfort in the Uno games, helping him connect with peers in a structured yet fun way. It's been incredible to see how these materials are not just enhancing academics but also building friendships and confidence.\r\n\r\nWe are so grateful for your kindness and support. Because of you, my students are learning, growing, and thriving—brick by brick!","fullyFundedDate":1736988762861,"projectUrl":"project/brick-by-brick-learning-play-and-comm/9005929/","projectTitle":"Brick by Brick: Learning, Play, and Communication","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Pelt","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-1_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9868241"},{"teacherId":1011969,"projectId":8278012,"letterContent":"I apologize for the lateness of my post.
