The resources you helped to provide is being used to teach students from any location on the school campus. As the teacher I am able to do small study and intervention groups that promotes learning even in an outdoor setting. The resources help to better my teaching craft which includes building connections, relationships through literacy and the craft of my students learning in a safe but fun space outside of their normal classroom setting. A favorite classroom moment highlight was seeing my students actually excited and volunteering to be active and involved in small group learning for once. Students love getting the opportunity to hold and engaged with the I-pad and choosing answers in the palm of their hands. Students now have the opportunity to work with a device that may or may not be familiar from their home setting. In their eyes they are having fun. Through a teachers prospective I see learning while having fun but also building fine motor skills, building language and literacy skills while building relationships with peers and teacher. I see the impact of having learning as an opportunity to take ownership of their own learning and at their own pace. Please know that you are appreciated and my students and I are grateful for you taking a part in helping us succeed in not only literacy but education as a whole.","fullyFundedDate":1733189321988,"projectUrl":"project/literacy-on-the-go/8802024/","projectTitle":"Literacy On the Go!!","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Crawley","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp7749769_orig.jpg?crop=1:1,smart&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1620927448288","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/7749769"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_109280","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":706,"numTeachers":30,"percentFrplEligible":95,"percentAsian":1,"percentBlack":65,"percentWhite":5,"percentIndigenous":1,"percentLatinx":18,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"K - 8","studentTeacherRatio":"23.5:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"URBAN","ncesMetroType":"CITY_LARGE"},"inStateSupporters":72.7,"schoolId":109280,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Gate City Charter Academy on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Gate City Charter Academy","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/north-carolina/north-carolina-department-of-education/gate-city-charter-academy-opening-fall-2016-/109280"}
