My first graders are absolutely thrilled with their new cozy reading area and stuffed animal reading buddies. The moment they walk into the classroom, their eyes light up as they pick a stuffed friend and curl up with a good book. The space has quickly become one of their favorite places to learn, explore stories, and share their love of reading with one another.\r\n\r\nThis project has created more than just a reading nook—it's become a safe, comforting spot where my students feel calm, connected, and confident. They love reading together, encouraging one another, and taking pride in their growing skills. Because of your kindness, our classroom feels warmer and more welcoming than ever.

Some headphones break and either teachers, families, or the school need to purchase more to replace them. This has made instruction easier and uninterrupted.

Many of my students come to school without all of their supplies, so the moment they saw brand-new crayons, markers, and notebooks, there were smiles all around. A few even said, \"This feels like Christmas!\"\r\n\r\nOur next step is to dive into our writing and math journals. Students will be using their new notebooks daily for problem-solving and reflections.
