We support students across many subject areas, including math, science, English, social studies, computer science, business, and career and technical education.\r\nThe resources you helped provide will have a direct and meaningful impact in the classroom.

Growing a collection of books that students want to talk about just warms my heart. Almost immediately, students noticed the new literary additions to the room and were borrowing them for our reading Wednesdays. A few students even wanted to stick with a new book for their new round of Book Talk presentations. Some Book Talk posters are in the pictures provided. I now keep a check-out list of books for my classroom so students can take them home. Of the new batch that you generously provided, Six of Crows, Nightmare Before Christmas, Spaceboy, and Go Ask Alice have been checked out of my room's growing library. \r\n\r\nWe've also put the white boards and prizes to good use. We played a few review games to ensure the students are understanding each act of the play Macbeth. Every group, which are named after Macbeth characters, try to answer each question by writing their answers on the white board. Every group that gets the answer correct, earns a point. The group with the most points at the end wins a prize. Students become fully engaged when duckies or stickers are on the line. Three out of my six classes ended with a tie. I've never seen engagement higher.\r\n\r\nThe tiny ducks and anime stickers have been insanely popular with the students. On a couple occasions, I recognized a fellow teacher who was having a rough day. It's amazing what a little duck and note can do for moral. When a teacher's mood improves, the better they are to handle their classrooms.Teaching a co-taught level of English, I have several students on the spectrum. When they are having a difficult day, letting them pick a sticker has been a huge help in preventing meltdowns. I also used a duck and sticker as a motivator to get a student to not be late to class. We made a deal, if she didn't end up on my 5 minute after school detention list for and entire week (placement triggered by tardies), I would give her a pink duck and a sticker. She earned it 😁 This student was on my list every day until we made this deal. Not only are these tiny rewards improving student attention and behavior in my class, but it's boosting moral and attendance in other classes as well. \r\n\r\nWe are going to have another round of Book Talks when we return from spring break. I can't wait to see what the kids have to say!","fullyFundedDate":1766786329447,"projectUrl":"project/group-participation-and-cultivating-book/9740435/","projectTitle":"Group Participation and Cultivating Bookworms","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Morales","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-10_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9354619"},{"teacherId":9351561,"projectId":10014477,"letterContent":"Thank you so much for your incredibly generous donation to our \"Building Community through Fun Fridays\" project. The games, candy, colored pencils, and blue tape and other supplies have done so much more than fill a supply closet; they have fundamentally shifted the energy in our hallways and created a space where every student feels welcome to join in the fun.\r\n\r\nYou should have seen the students' faces when the materials first arrived! High schoolers can sometimes be a tough crowd to impress, but the sight of brand-new games, a mountain of candy, and art supplies broke right through that \"too cool\" exterior. \r\n\r\nThe absolute highlight so far has been \"The Floor is Lava.\" We used that blue tape to transform the hallway into a massive obstacle course. It was a sight to behold, seeing kids who are usually glued to their phones leaping over \"lava pits\" and navigating the paths we taped out. It turned a normal Friday into something the kids are still laughing about. That tape might seem like a small thing, but it gave them a reason to be active and silly together and put smiles on everyone's faces!\r\n\r\nLooking ahead, our next step is to keep this momentum moving. We are currently brainstorming new ways to ensure that \"Fun Fridays\" never feel repetitive. Our ongoing goal is to find fresh, exciting ways to make students genuinely excited to be at school.
