Because of you, our students now have access to new, high-interest books that are already making a meaningful difference in how they read, think, and learn.\r\nThese new titles have allowed us to dive into important reading skills such as identifying theme, analyzing character development, and using textual evidence to support opinions. For many of my students, these are challenging skills, but having engaging books in their hands makes the learning feel natural and fun. We've also been practicing making inferences, drawing connections between texts, and exploring diverse perspectives—critical lessons for both academic success and real-world understanding.\r\nIn our classroom, reading time is one of the most focused and joyful parts of the day. You'll see students curled up in cozy corners, heads bent over their books, completely absorbed in the worlds they're discovering. We also hold regular book talks where students recommend their favorites to their classmates—something that's helped create a reading community where everyone's voice matters.\r\nThanks to your kindness, our students aren't just learning how to read—they're learning to love reading. You've given them access to new stories, new ideas, and new opportunities to grow.","fullyFundedDate":1747844579078,"projectUrl":"project/struggling-readers-library/9243779/","projectTitle":"Struggling Readers Library","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Meyer","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp6625774_orig.jpg?crop=1662,1662,x0,y0&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1606934573688","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/6625774"},{"teacherId":9249977,"projectId":9487623,"letterContent":"Thanks to your generosity, our classroom library has grown in ways that directly impact student learning and excitement for reading. With these new texts, students are building confidence by reading books at their level—without feeling like they stand out for having a \"lower level\" book. The wide range of texts allows everyone to find something that feels just right for them, while also encouraging them to stretch their skills and try new genres. Many of the books are rich in diverse characters and perspectives, which has also spark meaningful discussions. These lessons go beyond reading—they help build critical thinking and social-emotional skills that students carry into every subject.\r\n\r\nIn our classroom, reading has become both a personal journey and a shared experience. Students enjoy choosing from the new titles during independent reading time, and they also use them in small group discussions, where they learn to support their ideas with text evidence. The variety of books has made it possible for every student to find something that excites them.\r\n\r\nOne student, who used to avoid reading time, now looks forward to sharing details with his classmates. Seeing students light up with excitement when they find a book that speaks to them reminds us daily of the power your support has brought to our classroom.","fullyFundedDate":1755717190989,"projectUrl":"project/readers-in-the-making-fueling-growth-wi/9487623/","projectTitle":"Readers in the Making: Fueling Growth With Great Books","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Stivers","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-9_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9249977"},{"teacherId":9631405,"projectId":8570825,"letterContent":"Thank you so much for your generosity!

They run straight for the games as soon as they walk into the room, eager to incorporate them into the skills they are working on. The variety of games and resources you've provided has made therapy sessions more exciting and engaging. The students have especially loved Twister. Not only does it allow them to move around and satisfy their sensory needs, but it's also a versatile tool for targeting a variety of speech and language goals. \r\n\r\nThe wordless picture books have also been a fantastic addition to our sessions. They are perfect for helping my students develop skills like inferencing, sequencing, and sentence structure.
