It has been so fun to showcase these new titles at the start of the school year. The book stands helped catch students' eyes and pique their interest in the new titles because they could see the entire cover! Some books are Social-Emotional like \"Humble Pie\", some are STEAM like \"Aaron Slater Illustrator\", and some are interested driven like \"Manfish\". In my classrooms, reading has taken many forms. As a classroom teacher, reading looked like students getting to choose books of various reading levels and topics, me reading to them, them reading with partners, and silent reading. Now as a Specialist teacher, reading more frequently takes form as me reading to students to introduce a concept or project. \"The Questioneers\" is a fantastic series that features many STEAM skills as well as a Social-Emotional Lesson. For example, in \"Aaron Slate Illustrator\", Aaron is an amazing illustrator, but struggles to read. His teacher helps him & his illustrating shine, which in turn boosts his reading skills. In my class, I champion students to persevere through challenges and engage in productive struggle.","fullyFundedDate":1778028135882,"projectUrl":"project/reading-refresh/10232611/","projectTitle":"Reading Refresh","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Kiernan","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp7513295_orig.jpg?crop=1249,1249,x163,y189&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1786651078652","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/7513295"},{"teacherId":4494917,"projectId":10057540,"letterContent":"I cannot thank you enough for bringing the Toniebox into our Transitional Kindergarten classroom. You have helped us create a dedicated \"Listening and Literacy Center\" that has quickly become a favorite for my students.\r\n\r\nIn TK, developing independence is one of our biggest milestones. Traditional listening centers required constant troubleshooting—untangling delicate cords, navigating screens, or pushing tiny buttons. Now, my students are completely empowered. By placing a Tonie figure on the box, they can start their own stories and songs. Watching their faces light up with pride when they realize, \"I can do this all by myself!\" is truly magical.\r\n\r\nBecause the Toniebox is screen-free it provides a immersive experience. While my students are independently engaged with high-quality literature and music, I am now freed up to give focused instruction to small reading groups. Your donation hasn't just given us a wonderful audio player; it has ensured every single child is immersed in language from the moment they step into the classroom.\r\n\r\nThank you for investing in my students' independence, language development, and joy.","fullyFundedDate":1770999958992,"projectUrl":"project/small-ears-big-stories-building-litera/10057540/","projectTitle":"Small Ears, Big Stories: Building Literacy Through Audio Play","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. DeLucia","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/272x272/tp4494917_272x272.jpg?width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1497463235709","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/4494917"},{"teacherId":4494917,"projectId":9830698,"letterContent":"Thanks to your generous support, our new color printer has already made a big difference in our classroom learning. The ability to create colorful, engaging center materials has made a noticeable difference in student participation and focus. My TK students are naturally drawn to bright visuals, and the colorful literacy and math centers have increased both engagement and independence during small group rotations.\r\n\r\nDuring whole group lessons, I am now able to create clear, visually appealing anchor charts that support story comprehension, vocabulary development, and early writing skills. Students are more actively involved in discussions because they can easily connect to the images, symbols, and highlighted text on our charts. Our story engagement has grown because I can now print colorful sequencing cards, character maps, and retelling visuals that make concepts more concrete for young learners.\r\n\r\nThe funded project has also allowed me to quickly and easily create differentiated materials that are made for my students' needs, ensuring that every child has access to high-quality resources. Additionally, I've been able to send home more engaging family communication materials that strengthen the connection between school and home.\r\n\r\nYour generosity has truly brought our classroom to life. The color printer is not just a tool—it has become an essential part of creating an engaging, inclusive, and literacy-rich environment for my students.","fullyFundedDate":1769138443526,"projectUrl":"project/-bringing-learning-to-life-with-color/9830698/","projectTitle":"🎨 Bringing Learning to Life with Color!","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. DeLucia","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/272x272/tp4494917_272x272.jpg?width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1497463235709","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/4494917"},{"teacherId":7513295,"projectId":9627662,"letterContent":"Thank you for donating to my project! This project funded my enrollment in Stanford's National Board Resource Center's Candidate Support Program. My enrollment in this program gained me access to National Board Certified Teacher cohort facilitators and a cohort of educators working toward the same goal (get National Board Certification in Generalist: Early Childhood). \r\n\r\nGoing through the process of becoming National Board Certified is an extremely reflective experience that encourages and requires intentional teaching practices. Being part of Stanford's program has given me access to a community of likeminded educators committed to being the best educators they can be for their students. \r\n\r\nOne aspect of getting certified requires me to submit videos of me teaching. For one, I facilitate a small group focused on solving math word problems. I used my Knowledge of Students to intentionally write problems with things I know each student is interested (ex: writing a soccer word problem for a student that really likes soccer to connect to and get excited about). For one word problem, I had a student exclaim \"BASKETBALL, THANK YOU!\" when they read a word problem I wrote for them. \r\n\r\nIn the coming weeks I am going to teach some science lessons. I am excited for these lessons as I focus on multiple modes of thinking/sharing: independently on whiteboard, turn and talk to a partner, and in a group of 2-3 for a picture walk. \r\n\r\nYour donations have given me access to a community that will support me in improving my skills as an educator and clarify my understanding of what each Component requires- in hopes that I certify the first time around.","fullyFundedDate":1760725712556,"projectUrl":"project/go-for-the-gold-support-team/9627662/","projectTitle":"Go for the Gold: Support Team","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Kiernan","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp7513295_orig.jpg?crop=1249,1249,x163,y189&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1786651078652","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/7513295"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_92187","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":369,"numTeachers":17,"percentFrplEligible":12,"percentAsian":7,"percentBlack":0,"percentWhite":68,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":11,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","percentHawaiianImputed":0,"percentMultiracialImputed":12,"gradesServed":"Pre-K - 6","studentTeacherRatio":"21.7:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":false,"titleOne":false,"metroType":"URBAN","ncesMetroType":"CITY_SMALL"},"inStateSupporters":87.2,"schoolId":92187,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Harbor View Elementary School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Harbor View Elementary School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/california/newport-mesa-unified-school-district/harbor-view-elementary-school/92187"}
