We purchased blank passports and books for grades K-5th. \r\n\r\nThe passport's were used for reading activities the students completed both in class and in the library. In the library, students chose literacy centers based on different genres to explore. In the classrooms, students used their passports in different ways that matched with what they were currently studying. The students had their passports stamped when they completed a project. This whole school activity made learning fun. \r\n\r\nWe were able to purchase books to give away to every student to keep. The students were excited about the books and were grateful for them.\r\n\r\nThe literacy week made an impact with all the activities that students will remember for years to come. The lessons learned this past week will last a lifetime.","fullyFundedDate":1768332841293,"projectUrl":"project/book-an-adventure-and-discover-your-favo/9994107/","projectTitle":"Book an Adventure and Discover your Favorite Read!","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Wilson","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp8130004_orig.png?crop=398,398,x0,y0&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1687878081637","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/8130004"},{"teacherId":8168570,"projectId":9989148,"letterContent":"Thank you so much for supporting my classroom and resource students.

The new materials help ensure that each student has access to their own set in the small group setting instead of having to share with their partner. These materials have also helped increase engagement in the small group lessons. They help the students to show what they have learned which has increased their overall confidence.

The purchases have had a direct impact on my students and their learning. Three of the main items purchased were tools to allow for flexible seating in our classroom. The stools are used daily for small group instruction. The wiggle feet and canoes are used as rewards on a rotating basis. The students have used them to help them self regulate and stay focused during instructional periods. \r\n\r\nThe books that were ordered are allowing students to access decodable books at their reading level. They enjoy having colorful books instead of photocopied ones. They find the story lines engaging and funny.\r\n\r\nThank you for supporting students who are often overlooked and under resourced.

Your thoughtfulness and support have made a meaningful difference in our learning environment.\r\n\r\nThe flexible seating options have had an immediate and positive impact on my students. The inflatable beanbag and soft donut seats provide comfortable, inviting spaces that support focus and self-regulation. Students who benefit from movement and choice are now able to select seating that helps them stay engaged and attentive throughout lessons. This has led to increased productivity, improved concentration, and a calmer classroom atmosphere.\r\n\r\nThe classroom book sets have enriched our literacy instruction in powerful ways. Having multiple copies of high-quality texts allows us to engage in shared reading, small group discussions, and collaborative learning experiences. Students are building stronger reading comprehension skills while also developing a deeper love for reading.\r\n\r\nAdditionally, the document camera has enhanced whole-group instruction. It allows me to model lessons more effectively, share student work in real time, and provide immediate feedback. This visual support has strengthened understanding and boosted student confidence.\r\n\r\nBecause of your generosity, my students are learning in an environment that is more engaging, inclusive, and supportive of their individual needs. Your investment in our classroom is truly an investment in their growth and success.\r\n\r\nThank you again for your kindness and commitment to education.
