As the year went on we started having them draw and journal more using sentence stems as examples. \r\n\r\nIt was super cool getting to look back at where they started and where they ended. It was also an amazing gift to give parents.

Through you dronation of our puppet stage, my students were able to reenact stories we already read. Stories like the 3 little pigs, Goldilocks and more. They also were able to be creative and expressive with their own imagination by coming up with their own stories and putting on a play. Not only did this engage them in their learning, but it gave them an outlet to work on the communication skills. Through this activity I saw many students began to come out of their shells, talk more clearly and more in general. It was amazing to see the growth and it's all thanks to your generosity.","fullyFundedDate":1712084682236,"projectUrl":"project/little-puppeteers/8181693/","projectTitle":"Little Puppeteers","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Cannon","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp9062361_orig.jpg?crop=1:1,smart&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1690203904461","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9062361"},{"teacherId":9062361,"projectId":9070099,"letterContent":"Thank you so much for your support.
