I can not fully express how my kids felt seeing all of the new books that came into the classroom. The students were so surprised and could not wait to open them and get to reading. \r\n\r\nTo help build the excitement, I would add a few new books each week until they were all displayed. I have a shelf that has a \"Book Spotlight\" poster above it with paper spotlights shining down on the books. The kids always looked there as they went book shopping for new books. Many times, they only lasted a couple minutes before finding their way into a student's hands. As soon as that student was finished, there was another eagerly awaiting the book. \r\n\r\nThey also loved the decodables!! These were great for building their phonics skills and helping them to move up many levels in their ELFAC testing. Now all my students are near or at grade level. Knowing I am sending strong students into third grade makes me unbelievably happy. They are some of the most prepared kids I have sent on in a while, and I know it is in part due to the decodables. \r\n\r\nThank you for supporting my classroom in this endeavor. Your impact will see them through for years to come.","fullyFundedDate":1734622343286,"projectUrl":"project/books-the-gateway-to-a-bright-future/8921261/","projectTitle":"Books: The Gateway to a Bright Future","teacherDisplayName":"Mr. Keith Fawcett","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-3_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9826864"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_46889","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":309,"numTeachers":25,"percentFrplEligible":46,"percentAsian":5,"percentBlack":37,"percentWhite":43,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":9,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"Pre-K - 5","studentTeacherRatio":"12.4:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"URBAN","ncesMetroType":"CITY_LARGE"},"inStateSupporters":81.5,"schoolId":46889,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Lakeview Fundamental Elementary School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Lakeview Fundamental Elementary School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/florida/pinellas-county-schools/lakeview-fundamental-elementary-school/46889"}
