We haven't yet started note taking, but that's our next step. The kids love annotating their thinking on sticky notes to remind them what they wanted to talk about. I love classroom book clubs.

After recess, it went down again when we all came in. However, it again went back up after a little while.

I have been organizing supplies for the students, and having the skinny dry erase markers and erasers is helpful. The kids will also be excited about their triangular pencils to start the school year! I am excited to have the magnetic dry erase marker organizer for the classroom whiteboard too. My markers won't be rolling off the tray or getting misplaced now that they have a \"home\". I will be using the dry erase pockets to set up and organize our classroom writing wall so the students will have a place to store and display a year's worth of writing.

It helped my second graders begin to differentiate between tattling to get someone in trouble and knowing when to get an adult involved. These books have also helped them with tools to try and salve small problems independently. Dealing with the small problems that occur at recess and lunch can take time away from getting started when we return to class. You've helped me with books to curb this. They helped at the end of the last school year, and I am excited to begin the upcoming school year with these read alouds that teach important social skills!","fullyFundedDate":1744210916777,"projectUrl":"project/tattle-no-more/9246066/","projectTitle":"Tattle No More!","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Williams","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp3682907_orig.jpg?crop=1:1,smart&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1721593919062","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/denise-williams"},{"teacherId":9118739,"projectId":9157883,"letterContent":"My students absolutely loved the books.

They would make inferences, predictions, ask and answer questions, and summarize important events. Sometimes they would agree with each other, and sometimes they would disagree. It was amazing to watch their conversation develop over the year.

Then we made coin tacos to reinforce our money skills. The kids were able to choose which toppings they wanted, and then they figured out the total cost of their tacos. \r\n\r\nYesterday, to celebrate earth day, we made earth emojis with water color paints, and added a page about how we plan to reduce, reuse, and recycle. ♻️ Today, we added a third page to reinforce some geography and writing. I didn't get any pictures, but we wrote paragraphs about where our spot on earth is. We included our continent, country, state, county, and city.

Before receiving the folders, student belongings were often a chaotic mix of loose papers, crumpled assignments, and misplaced notes. This disorganization made it difficult for students to stay on top of their work and often led to frustration and lost learning time. The new folders provided a structured system for organizing their materials, directly supporting our AVID focus on developing essential organizational skills. Seeing students confidently access their work and maintain a tidy learning space has been truly rewarding. This simple tool has empowered them to take ownership of their learning and apply the AVID strategies we've been working on throughout the year.\r\n\r\nBeyond the folders, the donation of markers and erasers has revitalized our note-taking process. Students are now enthusiastically creating colorful and engaging notes, using the markers to highlight key concepts and the erasers to refine their work. This has made learning more interactive and fun, and I've seen a noticeable improvement in student engagement and retention of information.","fullyFundedDate":1690868323783,"projectUrl":"project/super-supplies-for-super-students/7593033/","projectTitle":"Super Supplies for Super Students","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. H.","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/272x272/tp4726373_272x272.png?width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1535924364680","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/4726373"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_91822","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":394,"numTeachers":18,"percentFrplEligible":82,"percentAsian":26,"percentBlack":1,"percentWhite":5,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":62,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"Pre-K - 6","studentTeacherRatio":"21.9:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"URBAN","ncesMetroType":"CITY_SMALL"},"inStateSupporters":75.3,"schoolId":91822,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Northcutt Elementary School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Northcutt Elementary School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/california/garden-grove-unified-school-district/mamie-l-northcutt-elementary-school/91822"}
