These texts have opened up a world of learning opportunities for our students, introducing them to a variety of skills and concepts that extend beyond just reading. For example, many of the new books offer rich vocabulary, diverse perspectives, and complex storylines that allow us to engage students in deep discussions about themes such as empathy, problem-solving, and critical thinking. These lessons help students connect their personal experiences to the characters and situations in the books, which enhances their comprehension and their ability to think critically about the world around them.\r\n\r\nIn our classroom, reading is an interactive and collaborative process. Students are not just passive readers; they engage with the text through group discussions, drawing connections to other subjects, and even creative projects that bring the stories to life. The classroom environment is buzzing with excitement as students make predictions, ask questions, and share their thoughts. Some students have been especially excited by the new books, particularly those who struggle with traditional texts. For these students, the diverse stories and accessible language have made reading feel more approachable, sparking a love for books they hadn't experienced before. For example, Matthew has been consistently excited about \"The Gold of Black Rock Hill,\" finding the adventurous storyline engaging, which has significantly boosted their confidence in reading. The impact of your support is truly visible in the enthusiasm and growth of our students.","fullyFundedDate":1727971746843,"projectUrl":"project/reading-adventures-decodable-chapter-bo/8817850/","projectTitle":"Reading Adventures: Decodable Chapter Books for Early Success","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Largent","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp9776517_orig.jpg?crop=1:1,smart&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1727201979153","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/mrslargentslibrary"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_54139","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":738,"numTeachers":34,"percentFrplEligible":45,"percentAsian":5,"percentBlack":2,"percentWhite":18,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":66,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"Pre-K - 6","studentTeacherRatio":"21.7:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"SUBURBAN","ncesMetroType":"SUBURB_LARGE"},"inStateSupporters":87.5,"schoolId":54139,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Camino Real Elementary School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Camino Real Elementary School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/california/jurupa-unified-school-district/camino-real-elementary-school/54139"}
