My students were so excited to receive the books. We were able to read a few of them before the students were dismissed for the summer. \r\nWe read \"Kindness is my Superpower\" the last day of school. I wanted my students to remember that we all need to show kindness to everyone even if we do not receive kindness from others. \r\nWe also read \"Just Now, I Feel Angry\". We talked about things that make us angry and how we can control our anger.\r\nI can't thank you all enough for the outpouring of love you have shown to my students. \r\nYour generosity has not gone unnoticed.","fullyFundedDate":1745856945457,"projectUrl":"project/calling-all-books/9226054/","projectTitle":"Calling All Books","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Floyd","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp1511595_orig.jpg?crop=1:1,smart&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1688401198998","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/s-floyd"},{"teacherId":1511595,"projectId":9092792,"letterContent":"It makes learning so much easier when you have a clean, germ free room.

We also wipe down our chromebooks and whatever else needs to be cleaned.\r\nAt the end of the day, before I leave, I spray the room with the Lysol to ensure that we come back to a germ free, clean room.\r\nThank you so much for all of your support in making our classroom a healthy learning environment.","fullyFundedDate":1743095355895,"projectUrl":"project/you-sneeze-i-sneeze-we-all-sneeze/9092792/","projectTitle":"You Sneeze, I Sneeze, We all Sneeze!","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Floyd","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp1511595_orig.jpg?crop=1:1,smart&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1688401198998","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/s-floyd"},{"teacherId":1511595,"projectId":9084640,"letterContent":"Thank you all for contributing to the education of my 3rd graders.
