These new texts have opened the door to important early-reading skills such as recognizing sight words, building fluency, and developing comprehension through picture clues and simple story structures. Because the books are engaging and accessible, my students are gaining confidence as they practice sounding out words, retelling stories, and exploring new vocabulary in a way that feels exciting rather than intimidating.\r\nReading time in our classroom has quickly become one of the most joyful parts of the day. Students choose books that match their interests—animals, silly stories, friendship tales—and settle into cozy corners of the room to read independently or with a partner. I've noticed that they are not only reading more, but also talking more about what they read, asking thoughtful questions, and making connections to their own lives. The library has truly become a space where curiosity and imagination thrive.","fullyFundedDate":1761141051343,"projectUrl":"project/book-corner/9784744/","projectTitle":"Book Corner","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Contreras","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-6_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/10064811"},{"teacherId":5496338,"projectId":4196030,"letterContent":"Thank you so much for supporting my classroom and helping us receive a Cricut! This new resource has brought so much excitement and creativity into our classroom. My students were amazed when they first saw the Cricut and learned about all the different things we could create with it. They were especially excited to see their ideas turn into real designs that we could use and display around our classroom.\r\n\r\nWe have been using the Cricut to create materials that make our learning more engaging and hands-on. One of my favorite moments was watching the students see a design being cut for the first time. They were fascinated by the process and couldn't wait to see the finished product. The Cricut has allowed us to add a creative element to our classroom projects and has helped students take even more pride in their work.\r\n\r\nOur next step is to continue incorporating the Cricut into classroom lessons, projects, and displays. Students will have opportunities to help create materials connected to what we are learning and use their creativity to make our classroom feel like their own. This resource will continue to support learning throughout the school year in so many different ways.\r\n\r\nThank you again for your generosity and for investing in my students. Your support has given them a wonderful new tool for learning, creating, and expressing their ideas. We are so grateful!","fullyFundedDate":1563903670994,"projectUrl":"project/enhancing-student-projects-with-a-cricut/4196030/","projectTitle":"Enhancing Student Projects With a Cricut","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. B.","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp5496338_orig.jpg?crop=1085,1085,x931,y0&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1563955779765","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/k-barrientos27"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_27416","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":455,"numTeachers":26,"percentFrplEligible":95,"percentAsian":0,"percentBlack":2,"percentWhite":0,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":96,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","percentHawaiianImputed":0,"percentMultiracialImputed":0,"gradesServed":"Pre-K - 6","studentTeacherRatio":"17.5:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"SUBURBAN","ncesMetroType":"SUBURB_LARGE"},"inStateSupporters":73.6,"schoolId":27416,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Janie P Abbott Elementary School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Janie P Abbott Elementary School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/california/lynwood-unified-school-district/janie-p-abbott-elementary-school/27416"}
