Your support has greatly enhanced our collection and provided meaningful reading opportunities for our students and teachers. We are truly grateful for your investment in literacy and learning.\r\n\r\nMany of our donors love books, and we are happy to share how this text is used to support instruction. The Wild Robot helps students develop key literacy skills such as analyzing character development, identifying themes, and making inferences using evidence from the text. The story also invites thoughtful conversations about empathy, perseverance, relationships, and belonging—topics that strongly resonate with our students and encourage deeper understanding.\r\n\r\nReading connected to the library is an engaging and collaborative experience. Students check out the books for independent reading, use them during classroom instruction, and participate in small-group and whole-class discussions. Having access to a class set allows students to read the same text at the same time, promoting shared conversations, peer learning, and stronger comprehension. The library has also become a place where students want to come to discuss favorite moments, recommend books to others, and explore similar titles.\r\n\r\nSeveral students, including those who were previously reluctant readers, have shown particular excitement for The Wild Robot. The accessible chapter format and engaging storyline have helped build confidence and motivation. Students eagerly request the book, enjoy discussing the characters, and are proud to share their ideas and predictions with peers. It has been especially rewarding to see students grow more enthusiastic about reading.\r\n\r\nYour donation has provided more than books—it has supported meaningful instruction, inspired a love of reading, and strengthened our school's reading community. Thank you for helping make these experiences possible for our students.","fullyFundedDate":1761933187985,"projectUrl":"project/wild-about-our-novel-study/9664490/","projectTitle":"\"Wild\" About Our Novel Study!","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Brabham","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp232814_orig.jpg?crop=1120,1120,x0,y190&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1725289878999","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/232814"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_15604","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":180,"numTeachers":18,"percentFrplEligible":95,"percentAsian":0,"percentBlack":59,"percentWhite":27,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":8,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"Pre-K - 6","studentTeacherRatio":"10.0:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"RURAL","ncesMetroType":"RURAL_DISTANT"},"inStateSupporters":20.8,"schoolId":15604,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Northeast Elementary School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Northeast Elementary School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/louisiana/east-baton-rouge-parish-public-schools/northeast-elementary-school/15604"}
