Thank you for considering our classroom, we are now able to expand our reading options in our classroom. As soon as books were placed in the classroom library, every student wanted to grab them and just see what they wanted to read. It was very exciting to see that they were actually interested to grab a book. During literacy workstations, they all wanted to be in the reading section. They do have the option to read any book of their choice as long as they complete a graphic organizer. Having bilingual books was very crucial for our classroom since most of them are Spanish speakers and are learnign English as a second language, these resources couldn't be more perfect. They best part is that they come in both languages and are very illustrated which also helps them with comprehension and making connections. Again, a million thank you for your support.","fullyFundedDate":1593661648561,"projectUrl":"project/bilingual-readers/4899033/","projectTitle":"Bilingual Readers","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Tovar","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp4789314_orig.jpg?crop=1:1,smart&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1691696324838","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/4789314"},{"teacherId":4789314,"projectId":4864496,"letterContent":"I am in disbelief that my students were able to receive new books into our classroom library. We are beyond thankful for the opportunity that you have given them. Being a bilingual teacher and teaching bilingual students has been quite challenging to find resources in Spanish. These resources are more than just typical books, they meet my students needs. They come in various reading levels which allows every single one of my students to be able to read them. They provide different reading skills such as comprehension, reading fluency, vocabulary and decoding among others. These skills are being used during whole group and small group. We are just thrilled to have more options to read and that my students can have many to choose from within our classroom. They are very happy to see our bookshelves stocked with books they can actually read, it gives them some ownership feel.
