My students are using them during reading and writing workshops, small-group instruction, and independent practice. One standout moment was during a recent reading lesson when students used the materials to analyze a text and then turn their thinking into written responses. Students who usually struggle to stay engaged were excited to participate, share ideas, and explain their thinking with confidence. Watching them collaborate, ask questions, and truly own their learning reminded me why these resources matter so much.\r\n\r\nWhen my students first saw the materials, their reaction was pure excitement. They immediately wanted to explore, touch, and try everything. Several students asked, \"Are these really for us?\" and \"Do we get to use these every day?\" That excitement quickly turned into motivation—students were eager to start lessons and took more pride in their work because they felt valued and supported.\r\n\r\nThanks to our donors, the next steps for my students include diving deeper into our current reading and writing unit. They will continue using these materials to practice critical thinking skills, strengthen comprehension, and build confidence in expressing their ideas both orally and in writing. We're also beginning a new project where students will apply what they've learned to create written responses and presentations that showcase their growth. Your generosity has not only provided tools—it has created opportunities for my students to feel empowered, capable, and excited about learning every single day.","fullyFundedDate":1768689970426,"projectUrl":"project/help-create-a-fun-nice-and-comfortable/10029234/","projectTitle":"Help Create a Fun, Nice, and Comfortable Classroom!","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Rojas","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-5_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/10406708"},{"teacherId":9357189,"projectId":8012714,"letterContent":"Thanks to your generous support, our new preschool climbing equipment is making a meaningful difference in our classroom every day.

As a first-year 5th grade teacher in a Title I school, I am deeply grateful for your generosity and belief in my students. Your support helped us fill our classroom library with high quality novels that are both culturally relevant and deeply engaging for young readers.\r\n\r\nThe impact of this project has been immediate and meaningful. I have 5 students in my class who struggled to read and are now working through the different level of books provided by your support. These stories have increased motivation, strengthened reading stamina, and sparked thoughtful conversations about empathy, resilience, and identity. Several students have even begun taking books home to continue reading beyond the school day.\r\n\r\nMost importantly, these books have helped students feel seen and capable. Many of my readers who previously felt intimidated by chapter books are now taking risks, asking questions, and celebrating their progress as readers and thinkers. Your generosity helped create a classroom where every child can explore new worlds, see themselves in stories, and build a lifelong love of reading.","fullyFundedDate":1753109065892,"projectUrl":"project/igniting-young-minds-bringing-novels-to/9430892/","projectTitle":"Igniting Young Minds: Bringing Novels to Our 5th Grade Classroom","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. T","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp9789151_orig.jpg?crop=1:1,smart&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1750786353204","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9789151"},{"teacherId":9608673,"projectId":9229247,"letterContent":"The items you purchased for my classroom have made a huge impact.

The new seating has transformed independent reading time into something my students look forward to every day.\r\n\r\nMy students were beyond excited when they first saw the new materials. Their faces lit up as they explored the library and discovered that they had a special place to enjoy their books. They were also thrilled about the desk pets, which have given them the chance to practice responsibility in a fun and meaningful way. Knowing they were the very first to use these items made them feel so special and valued.\r\n\r\nThis project has encouraged my students to read more often and take pride in their classroom.
