These books aren't just stories on shelves — they are mirrors where students see themselves, windows into new worlds, and stepping stones toward stronger reading skills and greater confidence. For many of our learners, access to high-interest, engaging texts is the key to unlocking a love of reading. Because of you, students who once struggled to find a book they were excited about now have choices that match their interests and reading levels. You're not just funding supplies — you're helping build lifelong readers, stronger learners, and kids who feel seen, valued, and inspired every time they open a book. Thank you for believing in them.\r\nWhen the books arrived, the excitement in our classroom was unforgettable. Students eagerly flipped through pages, shared titles with friends, and couldn't wait to start reading. Watching them get excited about the new books shows a powerful reminder of how much this gift truly means.","fullyFundedDate":1769177205904,"projectUrl":"project/level-up-readers-ar-books-to-inspire-gr/9871122/","projectTitle":"Level-Up Readers: AR Books to Inspire Grades 3-5!","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Berton","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp3038461_orig.jpg?crop=750,750,x0,y10&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1649165489765","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/3038461"},{"teacherId":386926,"projectId":9468713,"letterContent":"Thank you so much for your generous donations for the book boxes, storage bags, clipboards, and other supplies for our classroom!
