I have a variety of readers in my classes and your donation has been able to supply my students with different leveled books, a plethora of genres, and works that showcase diverse perspectives. Even my more reluctant readers have found joy in books and have been able to share that in class, in their assignments, and with their families.\r\n\r\nReading is embedded not just with the novel studies we conduct, but also through independent choice reading time. This allows my students voice in what they read and exploration of different topics. I have had students say that they actually enjoy reading now! And for my more avid readers who usually stick with one or two genres, they have expressed that they were able to move out of their comfort zone and try something new.\r\n\r\nSo once again, thank you so much for your generous contribution.

Thanks to your support, our third, fourth, and fifth graders have had the opportunity to dive deep into the world of storytelling through the Illustory Create-Your-Own-Book kits.\r\n\r\nFrom the moment our students received their kits, there was a visible spark of excitement in the classroom. Each child was not just writing a story, but crafting their own unique world, one that was meaningful to them. The kits provided them with the tools to create characters, develop plots, and bring their ideas to life—giving them a platform to express themselves in ways they hadn't before.\r\n\r\nThrough this project, our students have gained so much more than just writing skills. They've learned how to be confident in their voices, how to collaborate with peers, and how to persevere through the creative process. Many of them, who initially doubted their abilities, have blossomed into enthusiastic writers and illustrators. By the end of the project, each student proudly held their own published book, a tangible representation of their hard work, creativity, and newfound confidence.\r\n\r\nThe impact has been profound. For some students, this project has unlocked a love for writing that they didn't know they had. Others have developed a stronger sense of pride in their work and an understanding of the power their stories hold. Most importantly, they now see themselves as authors, capable of bringing their ideas to life.\r\n\r\nYour support has helped us create an environment where students not only learn the technical aspects of storytelling but also discover the joy of creating something uniquely their own. As a teacher, there is no greater reward than seeing a student's face light up when they proudly share their finished book with their family and peers.\r\n\r\nThank you for making this possible. Your generosity has directly contributed to fostering a love for learning, creativity, and self-expression in our classroom. We look forward to continuing to nurture this passion for storytelling, and we are grateful to have you as part of our journey.","fullyFundedDate":1731518503576,"projectUrl":"project/ink-imagination-a-journey-into-classr/8883143/","projectTitle":"Ink & Imagination: A Journey into Classroom Publishing\"","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Orr","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-3_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9805325"},{"teacherId":9511117,"projectId":8678125,"letterContent":"Thank you so much for your generous support of our ceramic classroom! The new class set of aprons has had an incredible impact on our students' learning experience. These aprons not only protect students' clothing during their creative processes but also instill a sense of professionalism and pride in their work. Each time students put on their aprons, they feel like true artists, ready to dive into the hands-on, often messy, world of ceramics. This confidence has translated into greater engagement and a willingness to take creative risks, resulting in remarkable projects that showcase their growing skills.\r\n\r\nThe aprons have also contributed to a more efficient and enjoyable classroom environment. Students no longer worry about ruining their clothes, which allows them to focus fully on their craft. Cleanup time has been significantly reduced, as the aprons keep clay and glaze off their clothing and the classroom floor. This has given us more time for instruction, collaboration, and refining techniques. Your generosity has helped create a more positive and productive space for our budding ceramicists to thrive.
