Because of your donation, our students have increased access to high-interest books that truly excite them and make reading something they look forward to each day.\r\n\r\nThe books you helped provide are already making a difference. Students are engaged in reading discussions, eager to share ideas with their peers, and motivated to dig deeper into the texts. Having choice-driven, high-interest titles allows students to practice important comprehension skills—such as making inferences, analyzing characters, and supporting their thinking with evidence—in a meaningful and authentic way.\r\n\r\nBook clubs also help build confidence and community. Students are learning to listen closely, ask thoughtful questions, and collaborate with classmates around a shared text. These are skills that extend far beyond reading and support their overall growth as learners.\r\n\r\nYour generosity has directly enriched our classroom and opened the door for richer conversations, stronger comprehension, and a greater love of reading. Thank you for investing in my students and for helping make learning engaging and joyful.\r\n\r\nWith sincere appreciation,","fullyFundedDate":1764095805613,"projectUrl":"project/partner-books-for-4th-graders/9922353/","projectTitle":"Partner Books for 4th Graders","teacherDisplayName":"Mr. Bean","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-6_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/10360891"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_55700","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":281,"numTeachers":20,"percentFrplEligible":22,"percentAsian":2,"percentBlack":10,"percentWhite":82,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":2,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"3 - 5","studentTeacherRatio":"14.0:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":false,"titleOne":false,"metroType":"RURAL","ncesMetroType":"RURAL_FRINGE"},"inStateSupporters":73.6,"schoolId":55700,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Mast Landing Elementary School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Mast Landing Elementary School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/maine/rsu-5/mast-landing-elementary-school/55700"}
