We thought the students needed this book to read, so they could find our the places that they could go from kindergarten and the things that they could do. Many of the students in my classroom were not able to read, but they were introduced to words to learn how to begin reading.\r\nThe students in my classroom who were already reading were able to read the book to their parents. This book will be a keepsake and something to remember their kindergarten school year by. The students enjoyed being able to receive their own copy of the book.","fullyFundedDate":1712458083891,"projectUrl":"project/oh-the-places-you-will-go/8299053/","projectTitle":"Oh, the Places You Will Go","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Johnson Craig","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-1_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/7191721"},{"teacherId":7191721,"projectId":8606266,"letterContent":"Thank you for your support for my project.
