I love how their little faces light up when they see I have board games for them to play.

We are starting with THE CHOCOLATE TOUCH by Patrick Skene Catling. For many of my students, this is one of the first brand new books they have been given to read. A couple of them commented on how good the new books smelled. \r\n It is a true pleasure to experience this fun story through the eyes of enthusiastic 4th and 5th grade children. They enjoy taking turns reading aloud to the whole group and they are full of predictions about what will happen to the main character next. We only have about 20 minutes of reading time four days a week, which helps keep the students engaged with the story. \r\n Thanks to generous people like you, my students get to experience the fun of reading literature about kids similar to themselves. When we finish THE CHOCOLATE TOUCH, we will read HATCHET, by Gary Paulsen. I know that most of these students do not read with their families at home, so I hope that this special reading time helps them develop a strong, lifelong love of reading.","fullyFundedDate":1746043256511,"projectUrl":"project/books-to-grow-on/9246912/","projectTitle":"Books to Grow On","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Karen","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp6499216_orig.jpg?crop=1932,1932,x0,y115&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1709076310639","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/6499216"},{"teacherId":3047895,"projectId":9465165,"letterContent":"Dear Donors,\r\nThank you so much for your generous support of our elementary music classroom through DonorsChoose!

These are resources that are rarely accessible within the classroom budget. The students were thrilled to see the new watercolor inks!
