The board games and educational activities have become a key part of our literacy block, where students work in small groups to practice skills such as identifying main idea, understanding figurative language, and making inferences. Learning through games has encouraged collaboration, discussion, and problem-solving, and I've seen students who are usually hesitant to participate become more confident and excited to share their thinking.\r\nWhen the materials first arrived, my students were thrilled. Their excitement was immediate as they explored the games and flexible seating options. The stools have given students more choice in how and where they learn, helping them stay focused and comfortable during group work and independent practice. Many students commented on how much they enjoyed learning in a new way, and the positive energy in the classroom was clear from the very first day.\r\nAs we move forward, these resources will continue to support our current reading and language arts lessons. Students will use the games to deepen their comprehension skills, apply strategies they are learning in class, and strengthen their ability to explain their thinking using evidence from texts. Because of your generosity, my classroom is a more engaging, supportive, and student-centered learning environment, and my students are excited to keep learning and growing together.","fullyFundedDate":1760651586692,"projectUrl":"project/make-our-classroom-magical-and-magnifice/9829398/","projectTitle":"Make Our Classroom Magical and Magnificent Like M & M's!","teacherDisplayName":"Mr. Evans","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-7_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/10312313"},{"teacherId":10313634,"projectId":9832618,"letterContent":"Thank you so much for the contributing to the wish list made to better support my students!
