The students were stunned when they entered the classroom and saw the enormous bulky boxes. Their eyes were so wide! The excitement of curiosity was so spenceful. Upon opening the boxes the students were jumping for joy to have a cushion chair to read their chapter books during independent reading time. \r\nFrom the day the cushion chairs were delivered, the students have been using them to read during our 30 minute reading time daily. One student told me that they didn't realize how quickly the time flies by when reading while using the cushion chair. Another student said, \"Mrs. Nichols, thank you so much for getting the cushion chairs for us. I am enjoying being able to relax on it and dive deep into my book.\" The cushion chairs are developing lifelong readers in the classroom to inspire the students to read daily. \r\nLastly, thank you for the donation of the figurative language game. The students were in their competitive mode when I introduced how to play the game. Students are using the similes, metaphors, and idioms sayings in class when appropriate to add nonliteral language to their vocabulary.","fullyFundedDate":1760392622275,"projectUrl":"project/get-comfy-and-cozy-for-reading/9823977/","projectTitle":"Get Comfy and Cozy for Reading","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Nichols","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-9_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/4356516"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_44458","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":721,"numTeachers":47,"percentFrplEligible":21,"percentAsian":4,"percentBlack":22,"percentWhite":51,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":9,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"1 - 5","studentTeacherRatio":"15.3:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":false,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"SUBURBAN","ncesMetroType":"SUBURB_MIDSIZE"},"inStateSupporters":63.1,"schoolId":44458,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Allen Frear Elementary School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Allen Frear Elementary School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/delaware/caesar-rodney-school-district/allen-frear-elementary-school/44458"}
