Because of you, our students now have access to art materials, slime-making kits, and engaging games that spark imagination and hands-on learning every single day.\r\n\r\nThese supplies are more than just fun activities—they are powerful tools for creativity, problem-solving, and emotional expression. Through art projects, students can paint, draw, design, and create pieces that reflect their unique personalities and experiences. Art gives them a safe space to express feelings, build confidence, and take pride in their work.\r\n\r\nThe slime materials bring science and creativity together in an exciting way. Students explore measurement, chemical reactions, and following directions while also experimenting with colors, textures, and designs. Slime-making encourages teamwork, patience, and curiosity—all while having a blast!\r\n\r\nThe games you provided help students strengthen social skills, critical thinking, and collaboration. Whether they are working in teams, practicing strategy, or learning to communicate effectively, they are building important life skills in a joyful and supportive environment.\r\n\r\nYour generosity is helping create a classroom where students feel inspired, engaged, and valued. Many of our students benefit deeply from opportunities to learn through movement, creativity, and hands-on exploration. Because of you, they are discovering new talents, coping skills, and confidence in themselves.\r\n\r\nWe are so grateful for your kindness and for believing in our students.

Before away games, the girls stop in and pick out a snack for the bus ride and another for after the game. What started as \"game day fuel\" has turned into a moment of connection and team bonding. One afternoon, our bus arrived nearly 30 minutes late after a long school day. Instead of being tired and frustrated, the girls grabbed snacks, sat together, laughed, and reset as a team. It shifted the energy completely. Having reliable, healthy options available has truly made a difference in both morale and performance.\r\n\r\nThey were so excited! When they first saw the snacks, there were big smiles, lots of \"No way!\" and genuine gratitude. For many of our athletes who travel long distances just to get to the bus, knowing something was there for them felt supportive and thoughtful. They immediately embraced the idea of the Snack Shack and even helped organize it. It quickly became something they looked forward to on game days.\r\n\r\n\r\nOur next step is continuing to build sustainability around the Colonel Snack Shack. We're working on incorporating lessons about nutrition and performance into our team discussions so the girls better understand how fueling their bodies impacts energy, recovery, and focus. We also hope to eventually have team leaders help manage inventory and budgeting, turning this into a leadership opportunity as well. Your donation didn't just provide snacks — it helped us create a supportive environment that shows our athletes they are cared for.\r\n\r\nThank you again for investing in our team!","fullyFundedDate":1770509573183,"projectUrl":"project/more-than-a-game-post-game-snacks-for-t/10080236/","projectTitle":"More Than a Game: Post-Game Snacks for Traveling Athletes","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Burchill","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp9216666_orig.png?crop=270,270,x0,y6&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1770135427688","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9216666"},{"teacherId":5313422,"projectId":9945951,"letterContent":"Dear Donors,\r\n\r\nThank you for supporting our \"Incentives to Succeed!\" project.

It was a great opportunity to reinforce goal-setting and positive choices. These incentives are being used as part of our classroom reinforcement system to encourage focus, effort, and appropriate classroom behaviors.\r\n\r\nThe fidgets are especially helpful for students who benefit from sensory supports, while the personal care items offer motivating, age-appropriate rewards.

As a first year teacher, I have been developing my practice in the classroom and part of that process has been developing a reward system. My students need some intrinsic motivation and snacks and treats are the best way to get them engaged. The way my students can earn these snacks you have provided is by earning stamps in class. In the photos, some of my students are holding up their stamp charts to show their progress in class. They talk about earning stamps and snacks all the time and it is an amazing step towards getting them to put in sincere effort to their work and come away with something tangible as an achievement. \r\n\r\nMy students love this system and frequently ask me with excitement in their voice if they can trade in their stamps for a snack! A lot of my students struggle to create goals or motivate themselves, so having a goal that both is connected to something they all love (snacks) is a great way for me to keep track of how they are doing in my class and have an entry point to continue building both relationships with them throughout the year.
