It is a very popular choice among our English teachers, but due to loss and age there was not even one full class set. Because of the generosity of the donors, we now have enough books to check out to two classes at a time, allowing more students to read this important book. The set has already been checked out by two teachers so far this year, and we've only had the books for a short time.\r\n\r\nThis book serves as a powerful warning against censorship and the dangers of a society that abandons critical thinking for superficial entertainment, and with your help more of our students are able to read this novel that has retained its relevance even decades after it was written. I'm so grateful for your donations.","fullyFundedDate":1764684444185,"projectUrl":"project/class-novel-refresh/9896771/","projectTitle":"Class Novel Refresh","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Crawford","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp2196293_orig.jpg?crop=1:1,smart&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1673298719603","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/mrs-crawford-rosemont"},{"teacherId":10314205,"projectId":9834054,"letterContent":"Thank you for funding our very first project! The reactions from my students have been so encouraging! There has been more interest in the classroom library than ever since our new additions. This project was intended to reach all of my students, but particularly my reluctant readers. Catching a flash of excitement in their eyes when they recognize titles and grab them off the shelf tells me all I need to know. Advanced students are also benefitting. When extension activities run out, \"fast-finishers\" now have an avenue to explore and find a new favorite book. Overall, the additions to our classroom library have had such a wonderful affect on our classroom culture and the opportunities students have for increased literacy!","fullyFundedDate":1761835708637,"projectUrl":"project/high-interest-classroom-library/9834054/","projectTitle":"High-Interest Classroom Library!","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Jenks","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp10314205_orig.jpg?crop=2316,2316,x0,y386&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1760552266608","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/10314205"},{"teacherId":2196293,"projectId":9195663,"letterContent":"Getting teens to see the library as a cool place to be is no easy feat. Thanks to the generous donors, I'm getting closer to accomplishing that goal. \r\n\r\nThe students love to choose a new bookmark when they come in with their classes to check out books. Uno and Connect 4 have been very popular games for students to play at lunch, and it's so nice seeing them interact with each other instead of staring at their phones. The origami station is just getting started, so only a couple of students have tried that out so far. Students vote for the most popular \"this or that\" when they check out a book using the poker chips. But the biggest hit so far is Gumby. I hide Gumby on the bookshelves, and students have to find him in order to win a snack. Students love it, and they ask me all the time if someone has found Gumby.\r\n\r\nI can't thank the donors enough for their help in upgrading the experience for the teenagers in my high school library.","fullyFundedDate":1746606018741,"projectUrl":"project/fun-in-the-library/9195663/","projectTitle":"Fun in the Library","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Crawford","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp2196293_orig.jpg?crop=1:1,smart&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1673298719603","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/mrs-crawford-rosemont"},{"teacherId":2196293,"projectId":9337536,"letterContent":"I was so excited to receive this class set of \"Long Way Down\" by Jason Reynolds. Many of our novels are older and less appealing to teenagers, and this book encourages students to engage in conversations about tough topics.\r\n\r\nThe 10th grade classes at my high school read this book last year and are planning to read it again this winter. We only had 1 class set, and teachers were having to share the 1 set and take turns reading it. Several copies also got lost. With this new set from Donors Choose, 2 teachers at a time can now borrow a class set, allowing for more classes to be able to read this book. \r\n\r\nWith budget cuts and no funds to spend on new class sets of novels, I am so grateful for the donors who helped to fund our project. I can't thank you enough!","fullyFundedDate":1754321134003,"projectUrl":"project/engaging-all-high-school-readers/9337536/","projectTitle":"Engaging All High School Readers","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Crawford","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp2196293_orig.jpg?crop=1:1,smart&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1673298719603","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/mrs-crawford-rosemont"},{"teacherId":9074496,"projectId":9196096,"letterContent":"Thank you so much for your heartfelt donation. Having a classroom set of books is essential and the kids really like the fantasy world that is the hobbit. They see Bilbo Baggins grow and change, finding courage when things seem impossible. You helped do this! I always pair this with the first film adaptation of the Hobbit too and it is cool to see them compare and contrast.\r\nThe students are all engaged and this could not be possible without the donation of books through this project. They find the adventure, dragons, and creatures along the way fun and it helps learning not feel forced but instead it is an adventure too!","fullyFundedDate":1744061943761,"projectUrl":"project/teaching-self-development-and-courage-th/9196096/","projectTitle":"Teaching Self-Development and Courage Through the Hobbit!","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Ramirez","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp9074496_orig.jpg?crop=1:1,smart&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1708558849451","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/englishramirez"},{"teacherId":389050,"projectId":8922424,"letterContent":"We want to extend our deepest gratitude for your generous contribution to our DonorsChoose project.
