They are eager to explore new ideas, tackle challenges, and support each other along the way.\r\n\r\nThanks to your support, we now have the essential supplies—glue sticks for hands-on projects, pencils for capturing their thoughts, and poster boards and markers for adding creativity. These tools will help my students stay organized, express themselves, and engage deeply in their learning. With the right resources, they can focus on building skills, collaborating with classmates, and creating work they are proud to share.\r\n\r\nYour generosity makes a real difference. It shows my students that their education matters and that their dreams are worth investing in. Because of you, we can create detailed posters, menus, and engaging brochures that bring their ideas to life.\r\n\r\nWe are so grateful for your support!","fullyFundedDate":1762390219402,"projectUrl":"project/equipping-young-minds-for-big-learning/9565074/","projectTitle":"Equipping Young Minds for Big Learning","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. H.

With the majority of the furniture available to students being the traditional plastic chairs, students were not keen to sit and stay a while.

Our rule is the comfy seats are for active readers only, and these seats are indicting them to increase their active reading. Students at our school track there reading by logging minutes. At this time we are almost a 1 million minutes read this year! Making the space an inviting place to come a read has helped us foster that goal.
