My students have had so much fun on fun Friday's playing with the games. Students who have worked hard all week get a well deserved fun Friday. My students also enjoy eating popcorn. I occasionally invite students to eat lunch with me and I let them eat popcorn as well. The hands on materials have really helped my students achieve high math goals.

As many as you know our students come from a hard upbringing and that affects the way they perceive praise and incentives. By making this wishlist happen- you allowed students to place their trust in getting something fun and joyful when they put in the work. Many of the incentives go towards students meeting their behavior goal, academic or even attendance at times. Once achieved they are able to pick something out from the prize box and feel so good about meeting their goal.","fullyFundedDate":1757682339410,"projectUrl":"project/rewards-that-strengthen-learning-and-cha/9663518/","projectTitle":"Rewards That Strengthen Learning and Character","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Segura","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp9634509_orig.jpg?crop=2088,2088,x0,y431&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1730986861464","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9634509"},{"teacherId":9634509,"projectId":9663594,"letterContent":"Thank you so much for taking the time to read over the Science wishlist.

The day the books arrived, my students couldn't wait to flip through them and dive into new stories. They gathered around, pointed out titles, and took turns reading aloud to one another—it was such a heartwarming moment that reminded me how powerful a good book can be. During that time, we were working on building reading stamina and developing strong independent reading habits, so having fresh, engaging titles in our library made a huge impact.\r\n\r\nYour support truly made a difference.
