For instance:\r\n\r\nIn my classroom, reading is often a dynamic process. It includes shared reading sessions where students can read aloud and discuss texts together. There is also an emphasis on independent reading time, allowing students to explore books that interest them personally. We use reading logs and discussion groups to facilitate engagement and deeper comprehension.\r\n\r\nI've noticed that certain students have shown a particular enthusiasm for the new books. For example, a few students who typically struggle with reading have been drawn to graphic novels and picture books, which help them feel more confident. Their excitement often spills over into class discussions, where they share their thoughts and connections to the text. Additionally, students from diverse backgrounds have expressed joy in seeing stories that reflect their own experiences, leading to a stronger sense of belonging in the classroom. \r\n\r\nOverall, the new books not only enrich our curriculum but also create an inviting atmosphere that motivates all students to read and learn.","fullyFundedDate":1723157390462,"projectUrl":"project/first-year-4th-grade-literacy/8561396/","projectTitle":"First Year! 4th Grade Literacy","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Franklin","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp9231343_orig.jpg?crop=1447,1447,x2338,y445&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1713650446603","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9231343"},{"teacherId":6850835,"projectId":8580394,"letterContent":"In our classroom, the new resources have transformed the way my students engage with their learning. Recently, we embarked on a project to build a stuffed animal hotel, and the moment the students first saw the materials, their eyes lit up with excitement. They were thrilled to have easy access to colorful cardboard, scissors, and markers, which made the entire project feel more organized and efficient. The students immediately dove into brainstorming and planning, collaborating enthusiastically as they shared their ideas. \r\n\r\nThis newfound structure has not only made our class more organized but has also fostered a sense of ownership and creativity among the students. Looking ahead, we will continue to refine our hotel designs, adding finishing touches and preparing for a presentation day where they will showcase their hard work.
