We have been using The One and Only Ivan and The Lemonade War to help students practice making inferences and building stronger connections to the text. These stories have encouraged thoughtful discussions, deeper comprehension, and critical thinking in a way that has been exciting and engaging for the entire class.\r\n\r\nReading has become a meaningful part of our morning routine. Students look forward to starting the day with these books and often ask when it will be time to read. Along with the stories, I have been using a study guide packet to support comprehension and skill development, helping students engage more deeply with the texts in a structured and supportive way.\r\n\r\nSince introducing these books, I have noticed increased enthusiasm for reading. Students are more confident, more engaged, and more motivated. This growth is a direct result of the opportunities and resources you made possible.\r\n\r\nThank you for your generosity and for supporting learning experiences that inspire a love of reading. Your contribution has had a positive and lasting impact on our classroom.","fullyFundedDate":1752117589526,"projectUrl":"project/help-me-give-my-students-the-power-of-st/9294016/","projectTitle":"Help Me Give My Students the Power of Stories","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Osborne","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-8_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9505174"},{"teacherId":9505174,"projectId":9158763,"letterContent":"Since the very first day students walked into our classroom, your generosity has made an incredible impact. Almost immediately, students began sharing how the room makes them feel like they are at home. Many have even told me this is the best class they have ever been in — and that feeling is truly thanks to you.\r\n\r\nWhen students first saw the new materials, their faces lit up. The lights around the classroom quickly became a favorite, making lessons feel extra special and fun. The fans have been such a blessing during the warmer months, keeping everyone comfortable and focused. Our TV stand, along with the bins and binders, has completely transformed how we stay organized, helping students easily access materials and take ownership of their learning space.\r\n\r\nThanks to your support, we are able to focus more deeply on our lessons and projects without distractions. Our next steps include continuing to build strong routines, engaging lessons, and a classroom environment where students feel safe, calm, and excited to learn. These resources will continue to support our learning for years to come.\r\n\r\nThank you for giving my students more than just supplies — you helped create a space where they feel valued, comfortable, and ready to learn.
