When they hold I Wish You More in their hands, they are receiving much more than a book. They are receiving a message that says, \"You matter. Your dreams matter. Believe in yourself.\"\r\n\r\nMy students come to school each day with different experiences, abilities, and challenges, but they all share something beautiful—a curiosity and excitement for learning. Your generosity allows me to continue nurturing that excitement while helping them grow as confident readers.\r\n\r\nOur classroom motto is \"Turn Your Can'ts Into Cans and Your Dreams Into Plans.\" This project brings those words to life. I want every child who walks through my classroom door to understand that where they start does not determine where they can go.\r\n\r\nBecause of you, my students can take this message home, share the joy of reading with their families, and have a book they can return to whenever they need a little encouragement.\r\n\r\nYears from now, they may not remember every lesson from first grade, but I hope they remember how it felt to have someone believe in their dreams.\r\n\r\nThank you for being one of those people. Thank you for helping my first graders dream bigger, read more, and believe that anything is possible.","fullyFundedDate":1781615823265,"projectUrl":"project/dream-read-believe/10109504/","projectTitle":"Dream, Read, Believe!","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Littleton","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp2653526_orig.jpg?width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1590773710751","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/2653526"},{"teacherId":9553895,"projectId":9235114,"letterContent":"This project made a real difference in how smoothly our classroom ran each day.
