Our first-grade students were thrilled to receive the new books and have been thoroughly enjoying them.\r\n\r\nIt is truly rewarding to witness their growing excitement for reading—an important step in their educational journey.

It ensures that all students can hear the teacher clearly, regardless of where they are seated, which helps reduce distractions and keeps students more engaged. This is especially beneficial for students with hearing impairments, auditory processing challenges, or those learning English, as it provides equitable access to instruction and enhances language development. For teachers, using a microphone helps preserve their voice, reducing strain and fatigue from projecting throughout the day. It also supports classroom management by naturally commanding attention and making transitions smoother. Additionally, allowing students to use the microphone during presentations or read-alouds builds confidence, improves speaking and listening skills, and encourages participation from even the more reserved students. Overall, a microphone fosters a more inclusive, accessible, and effective classroom environment.","fullyFundedDate":1715476971391,"projectUrl":"project/future-public-speakers-coming-soon/8150726/","projectTitle":"FUTURE Public Speakers Coming Soon!","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Shellie Davies","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp754223_orig.jpg?width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1720236575779","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/754223"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_32628","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":595,"numTeachers":28,"percentFrplEligible":95,"percentAsian":0,"percentBlack":2,"percentWhite":15,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":80,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"Pre-K - 5","studentTeacherRatio":"21.2:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"SUBURBAN","ncesMetroType":"SUBURB_LARGE"},"inStateSupporters":65.2,"schoolId":32628,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Wildomar Elementary School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Wildomar Elementary School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/california/lake-elsinore-unified-school-district/wildomar-elementary-school/32628"}
