My PreK students are naturally curious, independent, and eager to do things on their own. Thanks to your generosity, they were able to choose books that sparked their interests, explore stories independently, and build confidence as emerging readers. The books helped expand their vocabulary, strengthen early literacy skills, and inspire their imaginations through joyful, self-directed reading experiences.\r\nThe Tonies audiobooks made a meaningful difference in how my students learned and interacted with stories. The interactive format allowed children to listen, follow along, and engage with books independently while developing listening comprehension, language skills, focus, and critical thinking. Many students became more engaged and excited about reading, and they eagerly looked forward to listening and learning each day.\r\nBecause of your support, my students were able to take greater ownership of their learning and grow as confident, enthusiastic readers. The experiences and skills they gained have helped build a strong foundation for future academic success and a lifelong love of reading.\r\nThank you for your kindness, generosity, and belief in my students. Your donation provided opportunities that will continue to benefit them far beyond our classroom, and we are truly grateful for the positive impact you have made on their learning journey.","fullyFundedDate":1768840107878,"projectUrl":"project/little-readers/10040861/","projectTitle":"Little Readers","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Flores","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp10412391_orig.jpg?crop=1:1,smart&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1768789808335","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/mrskarinaflores"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_42272","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":669,"numTeachers":55,"percentFrplEligible":49,"percentAsian":0,"percentBlack":1,"percentWhite":2,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":95,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","percentHawaiianImputed":0,"percentMultiracialImputed":0,"gradesServed":"Pre-K - 5","studentTeacherRatio":"12.2:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"SUBURBAN","ncesMetroType":"SUBURB_LARGE"},"inStateSupporters":71.4,"schoolId":42272,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Kendale Lakes Elementary School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Kendale Lakes Elementary School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/florida/miami-dade-county-public-schools/kendale-lakes-elementary-school/42272"}
