It's amazing what having an organized area to place books from our curriculum does. Being able to neatly organize each unit book is helpful and makes management of getting each book, when the time comes, a breeze. The unit books no longer need to sit stacked on the floor or all stuffed into students desks. Both of these options caused a mess. But not anymore! Students have more space in their desks and it looks much neater in a bookshelf, rather than stacked on the floor. \r\n Thank you for your kindness and generosity!","fullyFundedDate":1757813215092,"projectUrl":"project/storage-for-our-curriculum/9512563/","projectTitle":"Storage for Our Curriculum","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. LeDonne","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/272x272/tp721546_272x272.jpg?width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1515611258328","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/721546"},{"teacherId":9279211,"projectId":9541388,"letterContent":"The Author's Chair is IMPACTFUL.
