These resources will make a meaningful difference for our Kindergarten through 2nd-grade English Language Learners (ELLs) and our 6th through 8th-grade students.\r\n\r\nThe picture dictionaries will be especially helpful for our younger ELL students as they continue developing their English language skills. During their Florida FAST Assessments, these dictionaries will provide visual references to help students better understand English vocabulary. They will also be valuable tools during whole-group and small-group instruction throughout the school year, helping our students build confidence and strengthen their language skills.\r\n\r\nThe calculators will provide our middle school students with reliable tools to use in their classrooms and during their Florida FAST Assessments. Having a physical calculator to use alongside the digital calculator on their testing platform gives students an additional resource to support their problem-solving skills. Our students are already enjoying their brand-new calculators, which have fully functioning buttons and stay on as they work!\r\n\r\nYour generosity helps ensure our students have access to the tools they need to learn, grow, and succeed.

Scholars participate in read-alouds, partner discussions, and hands-on activities using graphic organizers and gradual release instruction. Several reluctant readers have become more confident and eager to participate, volunteering to read aloud and sharing thoughtful insights during discussions. Many scholars now ask to keep reading even after lessons end, showing increased motivation, confidence, and a genuine love for reading made possible by these new books.","fullyFundedDate":1765998518994,"projectUrl":"project/tornado-novel-study/9963172/","projectTitle":"Tornado Novel Study","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Rhoden","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp9307266_orig.jpg?crop=1575,1575,x0,y0&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1752544825651","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/mrs-rhoden2"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_98411","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":357,"numTeachers":39,"percentFrplEligible":3,"percentAsian":3,"percentBlack":2,"percentWhite":48,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":41,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","percentHawaiianImputed":0,"percentMultiracialImputed":5,"gradesServed":"K - 8","studentTeacherRatio":"9.2:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":false,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"SUBURBAN","ncesMetroType":"SUBURB_LARGE"},"inStateSupporters":78.5,"schoolId":98411,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Imagine Schools Palmer Ranch on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Imagine Schools Palmer Ranch","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/florida/sarasota-county-school-district/imagine-school-at-palmer-ranch/98411"}
