The kids have had the opportunity to use it independently during recess and Choice Time with tempura paint sticks, watercolors, colored pencils and a variety of paper selections to create pumpkins, princesses, gardens and many other masterpieces. We have also been making class projects including a poster for our Ruby Bridges Walk to School event last week.

Our students are ages 4 and 5 and they love to read but cannot access the words in the books independently yet. You helped us give them more opportunities to hear wonderful books read to them!\r\n The students in our classroom absolutely love listening to the books on the listening center. They do it during our literacy center time and they even choose to listen to books during the free choice times we have throughout the day. They love to listen to books solo or with friends, and they even love to listen to the same book over and over again! Not only do they enjoy it but they are exposed to what good reading sounds like helping to establish a nice foundation for their own future reading.\r\n Thank you again for donating to this project. The kids are loving every book we have put in the center so far. Every week we put a new book in the center and they cannot wait to see what they get to listen to next!","fullyFundedDate":1734648563210,"projectUrl":"project/listening-to-and-loving-literature/8896038/","projectTitle":"Listening to and Loving Literature","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Brugh","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/272x272/tp4756575_272x272.jpg?width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1504398790242","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/4756575"},{"teacherId":3356181,"projectId":8523937,"letterContent":"Thank you so much for your generous contribution to our class wish list.

The likelihood of me getting these white boards without donations would have been slim to none. \r\nEvery time we take a math test, the kids fill their white boards up with a positive message for themselves so that they can start their test off on the right foot. That is one of the cutest ways we utilize the white boards. \r\nThank you again for choosing to donate to my cause.
