Because of you, our speech sessions have become something truly special.\r\n\r\nOne of the most meaningful changes I have seen is how engaged my students are. They do not want speech session to end. When it is time to clean up, they ask if we can keep going, if I can stay a little longer, if we can read just one more page. Books that once felt intimidating now feel exciting and safe.\r\n\r\nRecently, while reading Enemy Pie, we barely made it through a couple of pages because students were so invested. Every page sparked pauses, questions, predictions, and collaborative conversations. Students shared personal connections, explored emotions, practiced perspective taking, and used new vocabulary naturally and confidently. The story became a bridge for language, social communication, and emotional growth.\r\n\r\nThese moments are powerful. They show that when students are given the right tools and engaging materials, learning does not feel like work. It feels meaningful. Your generosity has transformed my speech room into a space where students feel heard, curious, and eager to participate.\r\n\r\nThank you for helping create a learning environment where students beg to stay, where conversations flow, and where progress happens in the most authentic way possible. Your support has made a lasting impact on my students, and I am deeply grateful.","fullyFundedDate":1764630615488,"projectUrl":"project/speech-tools-wanted-voices-in-training/9786951/","projectTitle":"Speech Tools Wanted: Voices in Training!","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Angelica","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp10298610_orig.jpg?crop=1:1,smart&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1759437126466","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/10298610"},{"teacherId":7805197,"projectId":8898291,"letterContent":"Thank you for your generous contribution!
