As fellow book-lovers, we know you'll be excited to hear about how we're using them. This project is about so much more than just reading; it's about seeing how real people create real change.\r\n We're moving beyond our Language Arts lessons to focus on empathy and real-world fairness. The new books, especially those featuring diverse climate heroes, teach my students two main things:\r\n * Critical Thinking: They are learning to spot unfairness—how historical and social issues make climate change harder on some communities than others. They analyze the stories to understand the \"why\" and the \"how\" of inequality, giving them powerful critical-thinking skills.\r\n * Empowerment: Most importantly, they are learning that they have power and they can make a difference in their communities. We use these stories as blueprints for action, helping students see that making a difference starts with passion and a belief in a better future, regardless of their age or background. I encourage my students to share their own stories and to take pride in who they are.\r\n The coloring books and craft paper you donated are a huge hit! They let students express what they've learned visually. For instance, a student might draw a portrait of an activist or create a poster about an issue they care about. This turns reading into a hands-on, artistic experience and helps us process serious topics in a supportive way.\r\n The excitement is contagious, but I've noticed a few students truly shine. Students who find traditional essays tough are thriving! They use the art supplies to communicate their understanding and take pride in being the class experts on presenting information visually. When students are reflected in diverse stories of climate leaders is profoundly validating. They are standing taller and speaking up more, often proposing local ideas because they now see proof that people who look like them are already making a big impact. They are learning that their experiences are central to the conversation.\r\n Your generosity is directly helping these students find their voice and feel empowered to act. Thank you for making them feel seen!","fullyFundedDate":1757085050028,"projectUrl":"project/voices-for-change-special-ed-climate-ju/9482671/","projectTitle":"Voices for Change: Special Ed Climate Justice Narratives","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Matthies","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-3_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9823404"},{"teacherId":9838231,"projectId":8945645,"letterContent":"I want to extend my heartfelt thanks for your generous contribution to our classroom project. Your support has made a tremendous difference in the lives of my students, and I'm excited to share the impact with you.\r\n\r\nThanks to your donation, we were able to add flexible seating options and fidgets to help with mental health and focus. We were also able to further our math learning with the calculators. These resources have transformed our learning environment into a more inclusive, engaging, and student-centered space.\r\n\r\nMy students have shown noticeable improvements in both their academic engagement and emotional well-being. For example, \"One student who often struggled to stay focused now eagerly uses alternate seating during reading time and is staying engaged longer than ever before.\" It's small shifts like these that create lasting change.\r\n\r\nBeyond the tangible items, your gift sent a powerful message to my students: that there are people who believe in them and are willing to invest in their success. That kind of encouragement is priceless.\r\n\r\nThank you again for your kindness and support.
