Your donation has made a bigger difference than you may realize.\r\nBefore we had the bins, books were often lying around the classroom, making it difficult for students to see what books were available and know where to put them when they were finished. Now, our books have a clear, organized home. Students can easily see their choices, find books that interest them, and independently return them to the correct place.\r\nThe bins have also helped me as a teacher. I can quickly see which books we have, which ones students are reading, and which types of books they are most interested in. This helps me make better decisions about what books to add to our classroom library so I can continue building a collection that encourages my students to read.\r\nMost importantly, your generosity has helped create a classroom where books are accessible, inviting, and ready to be enjoyed. Thank you for helping my students become excited, independent readers!","fullyFundedDate":1778635601380,"projectUrl":"project/organizationstudent-success/10119135/","projectTitle":"Organization=Student Success","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Walker","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-6_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/10097830"},{"teacherId":412007,"projectId":9730131,"letterContent":"Thank you so much for your generous support in providing American Sign Language and hearing-awareness resources for my students. Because of you, our classroom is becoming a more inclusive space where students can communicate, connect, and learn in multiple ways.\r\n\r\nHow we are using the new resources:\r\nWe are using the ASL books, posters, and workbooks during daily morning meetings, small groups, and literacy centers. Students are learning basic signs for greetings, feelings, classroom needs, and the alphabet. Storybooks such as Jack Signs!, Never Mind: Duke the Deaf Dog, and Ling Ling Bird Hears with His Magic Ears are helping students understand differences in communication, hearing, and accessibility while building empathy and awareness. Students also practice tracing and signing letters using the ASL workbooks and alphabet posters.\r\n\r\nOne meaningful moment occurred when students began using ASL signs spontaneously during transitions and to express their feelings, proudly helping peers remember signs they had learned.\r\n\r\nStudent reactions:\r\nThe students were excited and curious when they first explored the ASL materials. They loved seeing the hand shapes, copying signs from the posters, and discovering how characters in the stories use sign language and hearing devices to communicate. Many students were especially engaged during read-alouds, eagerly practicing signs together and asking thoughtful questions about Deaf culture and different ways people communicate.\r\n\r\nNext steps for our learning:\r\nNext, students will continue building their ASL vocabulary and applying signs during daily routines. We will connect sign language to social-emotional learning by practicing signs for emotions and needs, and students will use the books and visuals to role-play inclusive communication. These resources will support ongoing lessons focused on kindness, accessibility, and understanding differences—skills that will help students become respectful and compassionate communicators.\r\n\r\nThank you again for your generosity and for helping our students learn that communication can happen in many meaningful ways.","fullyFundedDate":1758843665079,"projectUrl":"project/we-can-communicate/9730131/","projectTitle":"We Can Communicate","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Gardiner","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp412007_orig.jpg?crop=171,171,x0,y0&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1727140807688","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/agardiner"},{"teacherId":412007,"projectId":9654536,"letterContent":"Thank you so much for your generosity and for making these social-emotional learning resources possible for my students. Because of you, our classroom now has calming, hands-on tools that help students recognize, express, and manage their feelings in healthy ways.\r\n\r\nHow we are using the new resources:\r\nWe are using the sensory bottles, calm-down jar, sand timers, and feelings books daily as part of our emotional regulation routines. Students choose a sensory bottle or timer during calm-down breaks to help regulate their bodies, and we use A Little SPOT books during small-group lessons to practice identifying emotions and positive thinking strategies. One especially meaningful moment was when a student independently chose a sensory bottle and timer during a moment of frustration and was able to rejoin the group calmly after a few minutes.\r\n\r\nStudent reactions:\r\nThe students were incredibly excited when they first saw the materials. They were immediately drawn to the colors, movement, and textures of the sensory tools and were eager to explore the feelings books. Many students proudly shared which emotion they recognized on the faces in the books, and several asked to use the tools right away to help themselves feel calm and focused.\r\n\r\nNext steps for our learning:\r\nNext, students will continue practicing emotional awareness by matching feelings to strategies that work best for them. We are building independence by teaching students how to choose a tool, use it appropriately, and reflect on how it helped them. These resources will support ongoing lessons focused on self-regulation, positive thinking, and problem-solving—skills that will benefit students far beyond the classroom.\r\n\r\nThank you again for investing in our students and helping create a calm, supportive learning environment where every child can succeed.","fullyFundedDate":1756481988133,"projectUrl":"project/little-spot/9654536/","projectTitle":"Little Spot","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Gardiner","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp412007_orig.jpg?crop=171,171,x0,y0&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1727140807688","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/agardiner"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_33303","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":451,"numTeachers":null,"percentFrplEligible":53,"percentAsian":0,"percentBlack":0,"percentWhite":79,"percentIndigenous":2,"percentLatinx":14,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","percentHawaiianImputed":0,"percentMultiracialImputed":1,"gradesServed":"K - 5","studentTeacherRatio":null,"demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"TOWN","ncesMetroType":"TOWN_REMOTE"},"inStateSupporters":53.3,"schoolId":33303,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Naples Elementary School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Naples Elementary School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/utah/uintah-school-district/naples-elementary-school/33303"}
