These resources give my struggling learners extra practice in reading and math at just the right level, which helps them build confidence and close skill gaps. Unlike traditional worksheets, these materials are interactive, engaging, and tailored to meet different learning needs, which keeps students motivated and willing to try their best.\r\n\r\nThe most exciting part for students has been the variety of fun, hands-on activities we now use to practice important skills. Games, task cards, and small-group activities make learning feel less like \"extra work\" and more like an exciting challenge. I have seen students who used to shy away from certain subjects actually look forward to practice because the materials are colorful, creative, and designed for success.\r\n\r\nOne student in particular, who often became discouraged during reading time, now lights up when we use these resources. The differentiated activities let him practice at his own level and celebrate small wins, which has boosted his confidence tremendously. Your support has truly made learning feel more achievable and joyful for all my students, and I am so grateful for the difference you have made in our classroom.","fullyFundedDate":1752671628419,"projectUrl":"project/remediation-that-works/9434601/","projectTitle":"Remediation That Works","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Mills","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/272x272/tp1012032_272x272.jpg?width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1532089821635","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/happypawpark"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_34982","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":362,"numTeachers":24,"percentFrplEligible":95,"percentAsian":1,"percentBlack":30,"percentWhite":44,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":9,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"Pre-K - 5","studentTeacherRatio":"15.1:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"URBAN","ncesMetroType":"CITY_SMALL"},"inStateSupporters":70.2,"schoolId":34982,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Highland Park Elementary School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Highland Park Elementary School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/virginia/roanoke-city-school-district/highland-park-magnet-elementary-school/34982"}
