These resources make a meaningful difference every single day.\r\n\r\nMy students have commented positively about the rotating bookshelf! Since receiving the chair and bookshelf, the kids are flocking to this space more, choosing a book, and best of \r\nAll they are READING! \r\n\r\nOnce we received the boxes, the excitement could be felt. Two of my students, who love building things, assembled the bookshelf. All of the kids applauded them as we found just the right spot in the reading book. \r\n\r\nAgain, thank for your support with this project.","fullyFundedDate":1778226191494,"projectUrl":"project/building-a-cozy-classroom-library/10271000/","projectTitle":"Building A Cozy Classroom Library","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Wilson","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-7_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/10500033"},{"teacherId":4672876,"projectId":10034854,"letterContent":"The \"Ink-redible\" materials arrived in our classroom today, and the excitement was palpable! My students were thrilled to see the new printer and vibrant ink as we unboxed them together. In our classroom, this technology is a game changer; it allows us to instantly turn digital ideas into vivid, physical resources. Having the ability to print in high-quality color helps my students better visualize complex concepts and stay organized during our busy learning center rotations.\r\n\r\nThe most exciting part for the students was seeing the first few colorful task cards come off the printer. They are used to seeing technology used for screens, so seeing it produce something they can hold and use for their games and inquiries felt like magic to them. They are already eager to dive into their next unit with these bright new materials.\r\n\r\nI've already noticed a few of my more reserved learners leaning in with curiosity, fascinated by how the printer works and how clear the images are. For students who rely heavily on visual cues to navigate their day, having access to crisp, colorful prompts is going to make a world of difference in their independence.

In addition to reading the books to the first grade students, they are creating math games for their first grade group. \r\n\r\nOur first Fairy Tale STEM Family night was held in February and was deemed successful.

By stepping into the shoes of characters facing various challenges, my students developed a greater capacity for empathy, a key aspect of the IB Learner Profile attribute of being Caring. The stories also provided a safe space to discuss feelings, identify personal strengths, and explore strategies for managing emotions, fostering crucial aspects of their overall social-emotional development.\r\n\r\nEngaging in rich discussions about the stories encouraged my students to articulate their thoughts, listen actively to peers, and consider different perspectives. This strengthened their IB Learner Profile attributes of being Communicators and Principled, while also inspiring them to think critically about their own social challenges and brainstorm constructive solutions. Many of these stories also naturally sparked conversations around our IB Transdisciplinary Themes, such as \"Who We Are\" (identity and relationships) and \"How We Organize Ourselves\" (community and responsibility), making abstract concepts relatable and personal.\r\n\r\nThe read-alouds truly served as bridges – connecting my students to diverse experiences, to their own inner worlds, and to each other. The discussions sparked by these books have led to a more compassionate, understanding, and emotionally intelligent classroom community. Thank you again for investing in my students' holistic development. Your support is helping us build not just academic skills, but also the essential social and emotional foundations they need to thrive as global citizens.","fullyFundedDate":1746467293642,"projectUrl":"project/building-bridges-ib-social-emotional/9122434/","projectTitle":"Building Bridges: IB & Social-Emotional Development","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Kamps","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp4672876_orig.jpg?crop=547,547,x532,y802&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1763956166650","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/4672876"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_43562","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":780,"numTeachers":60,"percentFrplEligible":65,"percentAsian":6,"percentBlack":7,"percentWhite":35,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":48,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","percentHawaiianImputed":0,"percentMultiracialImputed":2,"gradesServed":"K - 8","studentTeacherRatio":"13.0:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":false,"metroType":"URBAN","ncesMetroType":"CITY_MIDSIZE"},"inStateSupporters":67.5,"schoolId":43562,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Rogers International School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Rogers International School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/connecticut/stamford-public-schools/rogers-elementary-magnet-school/43562"}
