These new titles have already made such a positive impact. The books feature familiar and beloved characters that students recognize, which immediately draws them in and sparks their excitement to read. The text is presented in a way that allows young readers to progress at their own pace, helping them learn without feeling overwhelmed. This thoughtful structure has been key in building both their reading skills and their confidence.\r\n\r\nIt has been incredible to watch students eagerly dive into these books and proudly share that they are \"reading on their own.\" Many have started exploring new series and genres that they had not tried before. One exciting example is the Narwhal and Jelly series—students have enjoyed it so much that they are already asking for more books in the collection. Your generous contribution has not only added wonderful new stories to our library shelves but has also inspired our youngest readers to see themselves as capable, lifelong readers.","fullyFundedDate":1746785981053,"projectUrl":"project/exciting-new-books-for-emergent-readers/9172007/","projectTitle":"Exciting New Books for Emergent Readers","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Hernandez","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-8_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9549315"},{"teacherId":9549315,"projectId":8698178,"letterContent":"I want to express my heartfelt gratitude for your generous donation of a flannel board, felt materials, movement scarves, and other supplies. Your thoughtful contributions have made a tremendous impact on our preschool, kindergarten, and elementary students, enriching their library experiences in wonderful ways.\r\nThe flannel board and felt materials have transformed our storytime sessions for our youngest learners. Flannel stories have become a highlight of our programming, as the students eagerly participate in placing felt pieces on the board to bring stories to life. Recently, during our Gingerbread Man-themed storytime, the children enthusiastically created their own gingerbread man using the flannel pieces. Their engagement, joy, and creativity were truly heartwarming to see, and this activity encouraged both fine motor skills and collaborative play.\r\n\r\nThe movement scarves you provided have added a dynamic and joyful element to our transition songs and activities. They have helped increase student participation during transitions, making these moments smoother and more enjoyable for the children. Beyond the fun, these scarves are also supporting language development and gross motor skills, providing the students with opportunities to move, listen, and learn in an interactive way.\r\n\r\nFor our older elementary students, the cardstock paper has been invaluable for crafting sturdy, personalized bookmarks. The students love coming to the library to decorate and color these bookmarks, which they proudly take home. This activity not only fosters creativity but also encourages a love of reading, as the bookmarks serve as a special reminder of their time in the library.\r\n\r\nYour generosity has had a meaningful impact on our ability to create a welcoming, educational, and engaging environment for all of our students. Thank you for helping us inspire a love of stories, movement, and creativity in the hearts of our young learners.","fullyFundedDate":1729800390462,"projectUrl":"project/enriching-storytime-flannel-boards-and/8698178/","projectTitle":"Enriching Storytime: Flannel Boards and Movement Scarves","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Hernandez","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-8_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9549315"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_6996","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":362,"numTeachers":20,"percentFrplEligible":80,"percentAsian":10,"percentBlack":1,"percentWhite":9,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":73,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"Pre-K - 5","studentTeacherRatio":"18.1:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"URBAN","ncesMetroType":"CITY_LARGE"},"inStateSupporters":88.3,"schoolId":6996,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Gledhill Street Elementary School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Gledhill Street Elementary School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/california/los-angeles-unified-school-district/gledhill-street-elementary-school/6996"}
