These new books have transformed how students experience language—not just as a subject to study, but as something to explore, enjoy, and connect with personally.\r\n\r\nWith these texts, students are developing essential language skills in a more natural and meaningful way. They are building vocabulary through context, improving reading comprehension, and gaining confidence in interpreting authentic and leveled French texts. Beyond language mechanics, these books allow us to introduce cultural understanding, storytelling techniques, and critical thinking skills. Students are learning to make predictions, identify themes, and discuss characters—all in French, which is an incredible accomplishment at their level.\r\n\r\nReading in our classroom now looks dynamic and student-centered. You might see students curled up with a book of their choice during independent reading time, participating in small group discussions, or sharing recommendations with classmates. We've created a space where reading feels accessible and enjoyable, rather than intimidating. Students are no longer just completing assignments—they are choosing to read.\r\n\r\nSome students, in particular, have truly come alive through this project. A few who were previously hesitant to participate are now among the most eager readers, proudly finishing books and asking for more. Others have discovered genres they love, from graphic novels to short stories, which has helped them stay engaged and motivated. It has been especially rewarding to see students take ownership of their learning and build confidence in their abilities.\r\n\r\nYour support has not only provided books—it has opened doors for curiosity, confidence, and connection. Thank you for helping us foster a love of reading and language in our classroom.","fullyFundedDate":1759286975723,"projectUrl":"project/french-library/9687685/","projectTitle":"French Library","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Rebulard","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp7123049_orig.jpg?crop=1:1,smart&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1581827578923","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/ms-rebulard"},{"teacherId":10237811,"projectId":9860593,"letterContent":"Thank you so much for helping my class get new tools to improve our presentations. We have already used the speaker in class to administer the PACER test, which is part of our FITNESSGRAM physical fitness testing. Having the ability to amplify my voice in the gym has also been a great help. Giving directions and instruction is much easier and all the students are able to hear. \r\n\r\nNext week we begin our TABATA workout presentations. For this assignment the students will create a group work out and lead the class through their workout. By having the speaker with two microphones, they will have a much easier time getting the classes attention and leading the large group exercises. I'm excited for all the different ways we will implement the new technology into our daily routines. \r\n\r\nThank you so much for helping use reach our goal and supporting our students.

I have been using the new technology to record accurate times on the track, teach students about biomechanics and show them how to improve their abilities.\r\n\r\nOne of the apps that I have been using does a photo finish at the end of a race. The students get so excited to see their video or photo finish and see their times. The kids want to race over and over every time there is a close race they are jumping with excitement when they see the photo on the ipad. \r\n\r\nAnother app that I have been using is one that records slow motion video and allows you to draw on top of the video to show students where their form needs improvement. This is very valuable in track events like hurdles, high jump, long jump and more. The baseball coach has also started using the same software to help with batting and pitching. I have started a track and field unit in my PE classes and will be using it to help students there as well.

We've been incorporating the magazines into our weekly French lessons, using the articles to practice reading comprehension, build vocabulary, and spark conversations entirely in French. One memorable moment was when students worked in small groups to read an article together and then proudly shared what they understood—many were surprised by how much French they could already read and understand.\r\n\r\nWhen the students first saw the magazines, their reactions were full of excitement and curiosity. They loved that the materials felt \"real\" and authentic, like something a student their age in a French-speaking country would read. The colorful photos, engaging topics, and age-appropriate articles immediately captured their attention and motivated even hesitant readers to participate.\r\n\r\nThanks to you, our next steps include using *Allons-y!* as a foundation for ongoing projects, such as creating short written responses, discussing cultural topics highlighted in the magazine, and connecting what we read to speaking and listening activities. Students will also use the magazine as inspiration for their own mini-articles in French. Your support has brought language learning to life and helped our students feel more confident and connected as they continue their journey in learning French.

We are using the bandages, food, and cleaning supplies daily—whether it's quickly caring for a scraped knee after recess, offering a snack to a student who needs fuel to focus, or cleaning and sanitizing shared spaces so everyone feels safe. One small moment that stood out was when a student confidently came to the classroom knowing we had what they needed; after a bandage and a snack, they were able to return to learning with a smile.\r\n\r\nWhen students first saw the supplies, they were genuinely excited and relieved. They noticed right away that our classroom was stocked with things that help take care of them, and it made them feel supported and valued. Several students even commented that our room felt more \"safe\" and \"ready,\" which speaks volumes about how important these basic resources are to their sense of well-being.\r\n\r\nBecause of your support, our next steps are focused on maintaining healthy routines so learning can stay front and center. We are continuing lessons that emphasize self-care, responsibility, and looking out for one another, while ensuring that hunger, minor injuries, or cleanliness never become barriers to learning.

Many of my 9th graders are hesitant to read, and the book was the perfect way to get them into it!\r\n\r\nWhen we began, one of my students, A, confided proudly to me that he hadn't read a book since third grade. But the compelling story and its accessible language affected a great deal. By the end, A was one of the students who participated the most in discussion. Now he's looking forward to our next novel, Orbiting Jupiter by Gary D. Schmidt. (We already have my copies, so I won't come asking again anytime soon.)\r\n\r\nOnce again, thanks for your support!

It has been a lot of fun for the students and a great way for me to get some good data. \r\nThe first thing we did was measure everyones vertical jump height so we have a base measurement. We will continue to track our progress throughout the year to see the impact of our strength and conditioning work outs. Some students have already made some measurable improvements. \r\nWe have also started using the resistance runners and it is proving to be a fun and impactful way to train our student-athletes.

Your contribution made it possible for our students to engage in meaningful, active learning experiences that they will remember for years to come.\r\n\r\nOur classes have been having an amazing time with the Ball Hoop Toss activity, which combines the volleyballs you provided with the hula hoops in a challenging and exciting way. In this activity, partners work together to simultaneously toss and catch a hula hoop while also tossing a volleyball through that hoop, aiming for successful exchanges. The smiles on our students' faces as they master the timing and coordination required are priceless! What makes this activity so special is that it goes beyond just physical skills—it requires students to communicate clearly with their partners, problem-solve together, and support each other through trial and error.\r\n\r\nYour generosity has given our students more than just equipment; you've given them opportunities to develop crucial cooperative skills, build confidence, and experience the joy of working together toward a common goal.
