There is a never ending list of ideas on what we will be using the different colored paper for. We will use them for our interactive notebooks, foldables, crafts, certificates, letters home, and so much more. Being able to use different or even specific colored paper for activities really makes things more organized and more eye catching. I notice a lot more engagement with my students when we are using bright, eye catching colors for different things. One of the biggest things that we use the different colored paper for is with our math and science folders and notebooks. We even use them to color code specific things.","fullyFundedDate":1778136803268,"projectUrl":"project/a-rainbow-of-possibilities/10145246/","projectTitle":"A Rainbow of Possibilities!","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Brown","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp7198058_orig.jpg?crop=1:1,smart&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1770766989022","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/7198058"},{"teacherId":7198058,"projectId":10264167,"letterContent":"Thank you so much for donating towards our class project, \"Paper to the Rescue!\" Paper was in very high demand in our class until you helped to fund this project. In our first grade class we are learning how to find our answers in passages by circling key words and underlining our answers. Since we can't write in our text books this has become our norm to make printed copies. We are also working hard on becoming great writers. We map out our writing on a planning page, create a rough draft, and then write a final draft. You have helped make this possible which will lead to strong readers and writers.

Another great bonus is that my students have been able to use these books for our Accelerated Readers program that our school has. The students read the books twice and then take a comprehension test online to earn points. Since my students have received these books and have read and taken test on them, all of my students are able to go to the end of the year AR party for earning a specific amount of points.
