Because of your generosity, my students have had access to Dog Man and Magic Tree House books, and they absolutely love them. In fact, they are reading through the books so quickly that we are already starting to run out! It has been wonderful to see students so excited to choose a book and eager to move on to the next one.\r\n\r\nYour support also provided my students with access to Time for Kids on their computers. While we don't use this resource during our regular classroom instruction, it has given students another opportunity to read and learn outside of class. I know they are using it because they frequently come back to my classroom excited to tell me about something they have read. They ask questions, share new information, and sometimes teach me about topics I don't know much about myself!\r\n\r\nMost importantly, these resources are helping my students see reading as something they can choose to do—not simply something that is assigned to them. Watching them become curious, enthusiastic readers has been one of the most rewarding outcomes of this project. Thank you for giving my students books and resources that have helped make reading exciting.","fullyFundedDate":1778297594609,"projectUrl":"project/building-strong-readers-and-writers-one/10069982/","projectTitle":"Building Strong Readers and Writers-One Response at a Time","teacherDisplayName":"Dr. Beaird","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-5_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9347529"},{"teacherId":9347529,"projectId":10291159,"letterContent":"Thank you so much for supporting our Reading Together, Thinking Together project! Because of your generosity, my students now have access to multiple copies of the Ivy and Bean and Critter Club series, along with two sets of Magic Tree House books. These books have allowed students to read together, talk about their thinking, and build both their comprehension skills and their confidence as readers.\r\n\r\nOne of the most exciting parts of this project has been watching a group of students read Ivy and Bean. For some of these children, this is the first chapter book they have ever read! They are discovering that they can tackle a longer book, follow the characters and story across chapters, and share their ideas with classmates. Seeing their excitement and growing confidence has been incredibly rewarding.\r\n\r\nBecause our school does not have a library, these books have also given my students something our school currently cannot provide—a selection of books they can choose simply because they want to read them. Several students are choosing Magic Tree House books to read outside of school, and they are genuinely excited about selecting their own books rather than always reading something assigned in class.","fullyFundedDate":1780520778769,"projectUrl":"project/reading-together-thinking-together/10291159/","projectTitle":"Reading Together, Thinking Together","teacherDisplayName":"Dr. Beaird","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-5_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9347529"},{"teacherId":10403381,"projectId":10646162,"letterContent":"Thank you so much for your generous donations of paper and the incentives prize box.

There are so many fun things to make them and I was struggling to keep up with supplies.\r\n My students love rewards of all kinds, especially tangible ones.

Students were thrilled to see the new resources and immediately began asking questions and thinking about all the different ways they could use them.\r\n\r\nOne of my favorite parts of this project has been seeing students become more confident and willing to try new things. The materials have allowed us to make our learning more hands-on and student-centered, giving students opportunities to work together, be creative, and apply what they are learning in ways that feel authentic and exciting. Instead of simply learning about a concept, students are able to experience it, experiment with it, and make something of their own.\r\n\r\nBecause of your support, these resources will continue to be used throughout the school year and will benefit many more students in the future. Our next steps are to continue incorporating the materials into upcoming lessons and projects, giving students even more opportunities to create, collaborate, and build skills they can carry with them beyond the classroom.
