Each scholar worked to their highest potential and put forth their best work. Your donation provided an incentive for each scholar and through that incentive they did work even they did not know they were capable of. The laptop was given to the first place winner and has set them up for a terrific high school career. \r\n\r\nThis project brings so many opportunities and learning to each scholar every year that I do it.

The addition of graphic novels, picture books, nonfiction texts, and beloved series like Diary of a Wimpy Kid has created new opportunities for students to build reading stamina, engage in meaningful conversations about character and theme, and explore texts that reflect both their own lives and the lives of others. These new books are helping students develop important literacy skills like inference, perspective-taking, and text structure—all through stories they choose to read.\r\n\r\nReading in our classroom happens everywhere: curled up on beanbags during independent reading, side-by-side in partner book talks, or during quiet morning arrival when students sneak in a few extra pages before the bell. Some students have taken on the role of \"book recommenders,\" creating informal mini-reviews to post on our shelves. One of my reluctant readers, who never finished a book last year, has now read four graphic novels and is currently working his way through Dog Man. Another student who speaks English as a second language gravitated toward bilingual picture books and nonfiction with strong visual supports—and now confidently reads aloud to classmates.\r\n\r\nYour gift has done more than fill a bookshelf. It's ignited curiosity, built community, and empowered students to see themselves as readers. Thank you for helping create a library that mirrors the diverse, dynamic kids who use it every day.","fullyFundedDate":1742950306707,"projectUrl":"project/mr-websters-library-of-diversity-and-d/9045482/","projectTitle":"Mr. Webster’s Library of Diversity and Discovery","teacherDisplayName":"Mr. Webster","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-8_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9890795"},{"teacherId":9547573,"projectId":9091947,"letterContent":"I want to express my deepest gratitude for your generous contribution to our classroom. Many of my students come from low-income backgrounds, where the school provides all three meals a day. Because of your support, they now have access to healthy snacks and water, ensuring they stay nourished and hydrated throughout the day. Proper nutrition plays a crucial role in their ability to focus, learn, and engage in classroom activities, and your kindness is making a tangible difference in their daily lives.\r\n\r\nThe excitement on my students' faces when they saw the new resources was priceless! They eagerly grabbed their snacks and water bottles, expressing joy and appreciation. These simple yet essential items have helped create a more comfortable and productive learning environment. Recently, during a hands-on literacy activity, I noticed how much more attentive and engaged they were, reinforcing just how important proper nutrition and hydration are for their success.\r\n\r\nLooking ahead, we are diving into a new project focused on [current lesson or project]. With their energy replenished, my students are eager to explore and participate actively. Your generosity has not only provided nourishment but also fostered a sense of care and support that means the world to them.

The cozy reading nook created with the floor pillows has become a favorite place for my students to dive into books, fostering their love for reading. The double-sided dry-erase clipboards have added an interactive element to our lessons, making activities like math and spelling hands-on and fun. The Crayola crayons have unleashed my students' creativity, allowing them to bring their ideas to life through vibrant art projects. \r\n\r\nBeyond creativity, these resources have helped us build essential skills. The lanyards and organizational tools have taught students responsibility, while the math materials, like number lines and markers, have made abstract concepts more tangible.

These items have transformed our classroom into a space that's both supportive and inspiring. \r\n\r\nThanks to your generosity, I've been able to create an environment where learning feels exciting and accessible for every child.
