The texts are helping students build important skills such as reading comprehension, vocabulary, making predictions, and sharing their ideas about what they read. The Scholastic magazines have sparked curiosity and encouraged students to ask questions, make connections, and think more deeply about stories and topics that interest them.\r\n\r\nReading in our classroom is a time for exploration and discussion. Students read independently, with partners, and in small groups. They love talking about their favorite articles, sharing interesting facts they learn, and recommending topics to their classmates. Having access to these magazines has made reading even more exciting and engaging.\r\n\r\nSome of our students who were hesitant readers before are now eagerly reaching for the Junior Scholastic magazines and asking for more time to read. It has been especially rewarding to see their confidence grow as they discover topics that match their interests. Because of your generosity, our students are developing a love of reading and seeing themselves as successful readers. Thank you for making that possible!","fullyFundedDate":1790821559285,"projectUrl":"project/reading-the-world-scholastic-magazines/10484454/","projectTitle":"Reading the World: Scholastic Magazines for ELs","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Bravo","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp8471400_orig.png?width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1790875595995","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/teacherbravo"},{"teacherId":10532539,"projectId":10340166,"letterContent":"I want to start by thank you for your generous donations!\r\n\r\nMy students are using the new hygiene products as part of our health unit on personal hygiene and wellness. As we learn about how to properly care for our bodies, I am able to provide students with supplies such as deodorant, mouthwash, chapstick, sanitary napkins, and combs so they can practice the skills we are learning in class. These resources make the lessons more meaningful because students are not only learning about healthy habits, but also have access to some of the products they need to put those habits into practice. This is especially meaningful because many of my students come from low-income households, where access to personal hygiene products can sometimes be a challenge.\r\n\r\nMy students were very excited and grateful when they first saw the materials. They were curious about where the products came from and immediately wanted to know more about the people who donated them. Many students were eager to say thank you and expressed how helpful it was to have these supplies available to them. It was a great reminder that something as simple as a hygiene product can make a meaningful difference for a student.\r\n\r\nOur next steps are to continue learning about different aspects of health and wellness and to encourage students to take responsibility for caring for themselves. We will continue connecting personal hygiene to physical health while also discussing how taking care of yourself can improve self-esteem and contribute to your mental, emotional, and social health. I want my students to understand that hygiene is more than simply looking or smelling clean—it is an important part of taking care of their overall health and well-being. Having these resources allows students to practice what they are learning and hopefully carry these healthy habits with them beyond the classroom.","fullyFundedDate":1782845465929,"projectUrl":"project/every-student-deserves-to-feel-their-bes/10340166/","projectTitle":"Every Student Deserves to Feel Their Best","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Huerta","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp10532539_orig.jpg?crop=1040,1040,x87,y75&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1781589992957","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/huerta2b"},{"teacherId":1309613,"projectId":10071923,"letterContent":"Thank you for donating to my classroom.
