With your contribution, we have high-interest, age-appropriate decodable books during our small-group instruction. I was so excited to introduce these books to students. As a teacher, I greatly appreciate how each book focuses on a specific phonics skill. As students progress through each book, the phonics skill increases in complexity. Alongside each book comes with explicit lessons to help instruct me on how to support students through each book. \r\n\r\nReading happens everyday in our classroom. Students read independently as well as meet with me for individualized and differentiated instruction. When students meet with me, I teach them how to read the decodable books you helped fund. My goal is to give them the skills to read, so they are more confident to read on their own. \r\n\r\nThank you again for supporting our classroom and our community of readers.","fullyFundedDate":1723865853754,"projectUrl":"project/decodable-books-for-my-firsties/8567205/","projectTitle":"Decodable Books for My Firsties!","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Lam","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/272x272/tp2451892_272x272.jpg?width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1467842258685","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/2451892"},{"teacherId":9550475,"projectId":8703284,"letterContent":"Thank you for the donation towards my novel study By The Great Horn Spoon.
