With the funding of my projecting, 'The Power of Literacy', I have spruced up our library with new books and provided some comfy setting arrangements. Likewise, the Dogman games and puzzles have been a big hit! In particular, the Dogman Flip-O-Rama matching game has been a fan favorite because it includes ringing a bell every time a match is discovered.\r\n\r\nStudent reactions have all been 'supa' positive! Everyone wanted to play the games and everyone wanted to sit in the chairs. Likewise, adding more Dogman books, as well as some of Dav Pilkey's other books, has increased the interest in reading altogether including buddy reading. Multiple students like to read the same Dogman books together side by side. This is a wonderful way to support students at different levels because they are able to follow along as the other reads aloud.","fullyFundedDate":1764598928170,"projectUrl":"project/the-power-of-literacy/9649713/","projectTitle":"The Power of Literacy","teacherDisplayName":"Mr. Ward II","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-9_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/10223396"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_117446","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":null,"numTeachers":null,"percentFrplEligible":95,"percentAsian":7,"percentBlack":43,"percentWhite":12,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":22,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"Not specified","studentTeacherRatio":null,"demographicsDataSource":"MDR District Record","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":false,"metroType":"UNCLASSIFIED","ncesMetroType":null},"inStateSupporters":79.9,"schoolId":117446,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Children's Village Head Start on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Children's Village Head Start","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/pennsylvania/philadelphia-city-school-district/children-s-village/117446"}
