You have provided my students and me with valuable resources that were desperately needed. You provided my classroom with a beautiful plum purple rug that we are using for storytime andshared reading experiences. We didn't have a rug previously, so this time of experience was impossible. My students helped open the rug and place it in the classroom. They loved it so much from the very beginning. The wanted to rub on it and sit on it constantly. Some of the responses were, \"It's so pretty!\" \"I love the color!\" \"It feels so good!\" \"It's our school color!\" I really couldn't be more pleased with it.\r\n You also donated little leveled readers, which my students have been reading everyday. The students have even commented that these books are helping them to become better readers. We received several educational games in your donation. One of the favorites is Owl Vowels. Students sort word cards into each Vowel Owl Container with the matching vowel sound. We also received basketball shooting sight words and several file folder games. The students have said how these activities make reading fun for them. We will continue to use these materials to improve reading performance. The students and I appreciate your kindness and support more than words can say. You are a hero to America's youth!","fullyFundedDate":1789596915375,"projectUrl":"project/help-support-growing-readers/10315466/","projectTitle":"Help Support Growing Readers!","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Olivia Combs","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp1528984_orig.jpg?crop=1:1,smart&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1784645197477","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/1528984"},{"teacherId":1528984,"projectId":9920575,"letterContent":"I'd like to thank you from the bottom of my heart for supporting both my students and me.

This has allowed my young learners to focus on the program and give their undivided attention to their daily lesson without outside stimuli interrupting them. So many students have told me that they loved the headphones and could focus and hear the lesson so much better. Also, the little prizes encouraged students to try their their best so they could earn a trip to prize box.
