My students are a diverse group of young individuals with unique talents, interests, and backgrounds—and for many, speaking in front of their peers is a real challenge. Thanks to your donation, that challenge has become an opportunity for growth.\r\n\r\nThe podium has transformed the way my students participate in class. Whether they're presenting projects, leading discussions, or engaging in debates, having a designated space to speak from has helped build their confidence and presence. Students who were once hesitant to share are now standing tall—literally and figuratively—and finding their voices.\r\n\r\nThis simple tool has provided structure and empowerment, encouraging students to express their ideas clearly and respectfully. It has also been a key support in developing essential life skills, such as public speaking, critical thinking, and collaboration.\r\n\r\nWatching them grow more comfortable and articulate each day has been a joy to witness, and it wouldn't have been possible without your support. Thank you for investing in tools that truly uplift student learning and confidence.","fullyFundedDate":1684523702455,"projectUrl":"project/stand-up-and-speak/7389885/","projectTitle":"Stand Up and Speak!","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Pannell","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp6573127_orig.jpg?crop=540,540,x0,y230&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1564800119639","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/6573127"},{"teacherId":6573127,"projectId":7422711,"letterContent":"Thanks to your generous donation, my fifth graders have experienced the joy and power of being read to—something they genuinely love and look forward to each day. Reading aloud books like Restart by Gordon Korman has had a profound impact on their academic growth and social-emotional development.\r\n\r\nAs English Language Learners, my students benefit significantly from hearing fluent reading modeled with expression, tone, and pacing. These read-alouds have strengthened their vocabulary, improved their listening comprehension, and helped them become more confident, fluent readers themselves. More importantly, they've sparked meaningful conversations about identity, friendship, second chances, and doing what's right—topics that deeply resonate with them.\r\n\r\nRestart has become more than just a story—it's a mentor text we refer back to throughout the year. Students often revisit it during independent work time, remembering favorite characters, quotes, and the powerful message of growth and redemption. It has helped many students feel seen and heard, and even inspired some to share personal stories they had never voiced before.\r\n\r\nYour support has made this shared reading experience possible, and its ripple effect will last far beyond the final page.
