As a result, our class has earned 75 badges and passed quizzes on 126 books!\r\n\r\nBook Taco has also been a valuable tool for tracking students' progress. The built-in timer and weekly reading log has helped keep them on track. Additionally I host a monthly quiz contest with rewards and game time. This fun challenge further encourages them to dive deeper into their books and take ownership of their reading goals.\r\n\r\nAs many of my students are English language learners, the ability to access book quizzes in both English and Spanish has been incredibly beneficial. It's helping them grow in both reading and language skills, and they feel more confident in their learning.\r\n\r\nYour donation has truly made a difference in their education, and we are all so grateful!","fullyFundedDate":1726893237130,"projectUrl":"project/inspire-a-love-of-reading/8740664/","projectTitle":"Inspire a Love of Reading","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Story","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-2_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9730623"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_40021","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":883,"numTeachers":37,"percentFrplEligible":95,"percentAsian":0,"percentBlack":0,"percentWhite":2,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":94,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"Pre-K - 6","studentTeacherRatio":"23.9:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"URBAN","ncesMetroType":"CITY_MIDSIZE"},"inStateSupporters":84.6,"schoolId":40021,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Isaac Miller Elementary School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Isaac Miller Elementary School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/california/santa-maria-bonita-school-dist/isaac-miller-elementary-school/40021"}
