The excitement was immediate—students' faces lit up as the boxes arrived, and they eagerly watched each item being unpacked. Their curiosity and joy filled the room with questions about when they could begin using the materials. Many even asked if they could help set up our new Pencil Bar, showing how invested they are in this special addition.\r\nAlready, I've noticed a positive shift in behavior. Students are encouraging one another, showing kindness, and striving to be recognized as Student of the Month—an honor that now comes with the privilege of choosing from our Pencil Bar. This system has motivated them to take greater responsibility for their supplies, keeping up with pencils throughout the week and working hard to earn their five supply checks so they can upgrade to a pencil or pencil buddy.\r\nYour support has done more than provide materials—it has created a culture of responsibility, celebration, and joy in our classroom. The Pencil Bar is not just about pencils; it's about pride, motivation, and community. Thank you for helping us build this environment where students feel valued and inspired.","fullyFundedDate":1755521923534,"projectUrl":"project/stirring-up-smiles-and-suppliesthanks-t/9460611/","projectTitle":"Stirring Up Smiles and Supplies—Thanks to You!","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Morgan","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-4_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/10078106"},{"teacherId":2101414,"projectId":8937650,"letterContent":"The ability to create a hands on project funded by a generous donor such as yourself is indescribable and impactful to inquiring minds.
