I speak to her parents regularly about the resources for her to use, encourage them to ask her about the material on a nightly or every other night basis, and they told me that having the workbook has allowed them to ask more specific questions. They can also have her walk through the material and graphs and diagrams in more detail now that they have such a quality resource in front of them now.\r\n\r\nIt has been a huge blessing to have this resource in the hands of my students and a great way to check how they are understanding the material. Plus, the questions weren't written by me, so it stretches the students to be able to respond to the same material I have taught them, but formatted in a different way.","fullyFundedDate":1511916354223,"projectUrl":"project/discussion-engaging-assessments/2861509/","projectTitle":"Discussion Engaging Assessments","teacherDisplayName":"Mr. Brannon","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-1_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/3585700"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_82958","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":2500,"numTeachers":122,"percentFrplEligible":95,"percentAsian":3,"percentBlack":11,"percentWhite":6,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":72,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"9 - 12","studentTeacherRatio":"20.5:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"SUBURBAN","ncesMetroType":"SUBURB_LARGE"},"inStateSupporters":61.0,"schoolId":82958,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Las Vegas High School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Las Vegas High School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/nevada/clark-county-school-district/las-vegas-high-school/82958"}
