Thanks to your support, reading time has become one of the most vibrant and anticipated parts of our school day.\r\n\r\nWhen our students open these pages, they aren't just reading stories—they are actively analyzing character motivations, examining how authors build mood through descriptive language, and learning to draw evidence from text to support their interpretations. These fresh titles allow us to dive deep into crucial core literacy skills, such as identifying central themes, evaluating character development over time, and comparing contrasting perspectives in modern literature.\r\n\r\nIn our classroom, reading is an interactive, shared experience. During independent reading and small-group literature circles, you can hear the quiet buzz of students debating character choices, recommending favorite chapters to peers, and jotting down reflections in their notebooks. Having high-interest, accessible books on our shelves ensures every student finds a story that speaks directly to them.\r\n\r\nThese books have made a particularly powerful difference for several of our reluctant readers. Seeing brand-new, relevant titles waiting for them was the exact spark they needed; students who previously struggled to stay engaged are now asking if they can take their books home over the weekend or read ahead during free time.\r\n\r\nYour support has not only expanded our classroom library, but it has also built real confidence and a lasting love of reading in my students. We are deeply grateful for your investment in our classroom community!","fullyFundedDate":1777926705177,"projectUrl":"project/more-books/10162758/","projectTitle":"More Books!","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Soto-King","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp6154588_orig.png?crop=398,398,x0,y0&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1579280165904","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/6154588"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_704","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":842,"numTeachers":64,"percentFrplEligible":87,"percentAsian":25,"percentBlack":5,"percentWhite":34,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":33,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","percentHawaiianImputed":0,"percentMultiracialImputed":0,"gradesServed":"6 - 8","studentTeacherRatio":"13.2:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"URBAN","ncesMetroType":"CITY_LARGE"},"inStateSupporters":66.9,"schoolId":704,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Intermediate School 96 Seth Low on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Intermediate School 96 Seth Low","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/new-york/new-york-city-dept-of-ed/is-96-seth-low/704"}
