I teach special education students. Many of them need a variety of texts and high interest topics to stay motivated to read. We love the read aloud portion and the activities as well. I love the fact they can take it home to share with their family. \r\n The way it correlates with our curriculum is amazing.

Every time a new book arrives, I see little sparks of curiosity and joy. \r\nThe new books have given us opportunities to practice so many important reading skills like like identifying themes, making inferences, exploring figurative language, and comparing different authors' styles. We also spend time talking about how characters solve problems, which connects directly to the social-emotional lessons I try to weave into my classroom.\r\n\r\nSome students who struggled with reading at the beginning of the year have found series that hooked them, and now they're the ones asking if they can borrow more! One student who never liked reading before discovered graphic novels and now reads during every spare moment. Another has been so proud to read books in both English and Spanish and I want to expand my collection to include stories across cultures and languages. \r\n\r\nThese books have opened doors, not just to stories, but to confidence, curiosity, and connection.

The students also struggled in the beginning with taking care of their pedals. They were a little rough with them and were not using them correctly. This provided an opportunity for me to teach my students how to use and care for the gifts they received. Having the opportunity to use the pedals is also a great motivator for positive behavior in the classroom. I truly appreciate the support you have provided for my classroom and my students.

In 2nd grade, students have been talking about standard units of measurement and understanding how to estimate different lengths. We created yarn paintings where each student needed to estimate the length of the yarn they required before they applied it to their drawing. From there, we cut the lengths and used glue paint to make the yarn stick to their paper and give the project a 3D effect. \r\n\r\nSince most of the school uses yarm, we were very low on certain colors. When we got the box of new yarn, my students were excited to add more tints and shades to their work to make their yarn paintings look more realistic. We were also able to add a few more textures to make better artistic decisions about why we chose the yarn we did. \r\n\r\nOnce the 2nd graders finish using the yarn materials, 3rd graders will get a chance to use it with their large recycled weaving to connect to their pollution project in their homeroom. Other classes will take the materials purchased through this project and learn how to document weather patterns through weaving in the classroom.","fullyFundedDate":1734302207648,"projectUrl":"project/weave-it-to-us/9004737/","projectTitle":"Weave It to Us!","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Lopez","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp3259408_orig.jpg?crop=750,750,x0,y70&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1630865093114","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/lopezart"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_108252","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":1019,"numTeachers":83,"percentFrplEligible":87,"percentAsian":5,"percentBlack":26,"percentWhite":4,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":60,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"Pre-K - 5","studentTeacherRatio":"12.3:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"SUBURBAN","ncesMetroType":"SUBURB_LARGE"},"inStateSupporters":61.2,"schoolId":108252,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Baggett Elementary School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Baggett Elementary School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/georgia/gwinnett-county-public-schools/baggett-elementary-school/108252"}
