Your kindness has helped transform our sixth-grade English Language Arts classroom into a more comfortable, welcoming, and inspiring place where students can learn, collaborate, and grow. The excitement surrounding our new classroom resources has been wonderful! Our loveseat, flexible seating options, and additional classroom supplies are helping us create a learning environment that feels less like a traditional classroom and more like a cozy community of readers and writers. My students now have opportunities to choose comfortable spaces where they can read independently, work with partners, participate in small-group instruction, and share their ideas with classmates.\r\n\r\nOne of the most meaningful parts of this project is seeing how these resources can make such a difference in our students' everyday learning experiences. The new seating creates opportunities for students to feel more relaxed and confident while tackling challenging reading assignments, discussing literature, and developing their writing skills. Our additional resources, including chart paper, colorful markers, and classroom organization materials, are helping us make learning more interactive, organized, and engaging. These materials allow us to create visual anchor charts, collaborate on reading strategies, and build a classroom where students feel a sense of belonging and ownership. **You have given my students more than furniture and supplies—you have helped create a space where they feel valued, supported, and excited to learn.**\r\n\r\nAs we continue through the school year, my students will use these resources during literature circles, independent reading, collaborative writing activities, and small-group lessons. We are working toward becoming stronger readers, more confident writers, and thoughtful classmates who encourage one another. My hope is that our cozy classroom becomes a place where students discover books they love, feel comfortable sharing their thoughts, and develop memories that last long after sixth grade. Your generosity is helping make that vision possible. **From the bottom of my heart, thank you for believing in my students and investing in their futures.** Your kindness reminds them that people beyond our classroom walls care about their education and want to see them succeed. We are incredibly grateful for your support!\r\n\r\nWith heartfelt appreciation,\r\n\r\nMs. Kirby & Our Sixth-Grade Readers \r\nMillington Intermediate School","fullyFundedDate":1787165341852,"projectUrl":"project/a-cozy-classroom-where-readers-thrive/10358653/","projectTitle":"A Cozy Classroom Where Readers Thrive","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Kirby","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp10541390_orig.png?crop=1254,1254,x0,y0&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1792670111804","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/10541390"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_93298","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":544,"numTeachers":31,"percentFrplEligible":90,"percentAsian":1,"percentBlack":33,"percentWhite":38,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":14,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","percentHawaiianImputed":0,"percentMultiracialImputed":10,"gradesServed":"4 - 6","studentTeacherRatio":"17.5:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"TOWN","ncesMetroType":"TOWN_FRINGE"},"inStateSupporters":54.5,"schoolId":93298,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Millington Intermediate School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Millington Intermediate School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/tennessee/millington-municipal-schools/millington-middle-school/93298"}
