We worked together to organize our classroom library, and the different colors made it easy for students to see where books belong and how to find the kinds of stories they love.\r\n\r\nOne of my favorite moments was watching the students begin to take ownership of the library. The color organization system has helped them access books more independently, and they are starting to return books to the correct places on their own. One student in particular has absolutely loved helping organize the library and takes her role very seriously. She often volunteers to help check that the bins are in the right place!\r\n\r\nNext, we'll continue using our organized library during independent reading and literacy centers. My goal is for students to feel confident choosing books, exploring new topics, and taking care of our shared classroom space. These supplies are helping create a library that is welcoming, accessible, and truly student-owned.","fullyFundedDate":1769178041918,"projectUrl":"project/cozy-library-corner/9859009/","projectTitle":"Cozy Library Corner!","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Austad","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-10_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/10066099"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_66914","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":742,"numTeachers":36,"percentFrplEligible":52,"percentAsian":12,"percentBlack":3,"percentWhite":31,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":39,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"Pre-K - 8","studentTeacherRatio":"20.6:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"URBAN","ncesMetroType":"CITY_SMALL"},"inStateSupporters":90.0,"schoolId":66914,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Southport Elementary School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Southport Elementary School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/california/washington-unified-school-dist-yolo/southport-elementary-school/66914"}
