Our holiday family diner turned out better then we could have expected. Both Santa Claus and the Grinch made an appearance for the evening. They took pictures with students and families and gave holiday goody bags to kids. It was so nice to see our families enjoy dinner and activities together. Some of our students groups got to perform and present. The gift bags given out by Santa and the Grinch were a hit with the kids. They had game books, candy, fancy pens, stickers and things to keep busy over winter break. Thanks to you we were able to make this a fantastic event.","fullyFundedDate":1764718772324,"projectUrl":"project/holiday-gifts-for-holiday-photos/9909660/","projectTitle":"Holiday Gifts For Holiday Photos","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Peters","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/272x272/tp1569987_272x272.jpg?width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1454703177232","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/n-peters"},{"teacherId":1569987,"projectId":9470468,"letterContent":"Thank you so much for supporting this project. National Rubber Ducky Day was a success. Our students were so happy to be able to adopt their own rubber duck. There were so many kinds to choose from. Dinosaurs to cheerleaders. Pirates to superheroes. The ducks were each numbered so at the end of the day 24 students got to win duck prize packs. Activities like this are so important to us so that our students want to come to school and are happy here. If we can build a base of school being a place they want to be hopefully it will continue in middle school and high school.","fullyFundedDate":1755716463341,"projectUrl":"project/school-is-more-fun-with-ducks/9470468/","projectTitle":"School Is More Fun With Ducks","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Peters","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/272x272/tp1569987_272x272.jpg?width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1454703177232","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/n-peters"},{"teacherId":1569987,"projectId":9265467,"letterContent":"Thank you for supporting projects like this at my school as well as others. One of the hardest things to teach young students is how to care for others. With projects like this we are able to bridge the gap from just educating to creating productive citizens for our community. Allowing students to work on projects to help both people and animals in our community will hopefully lead to a desire later in life to help those who need it. With your help we can teach caring, responsibility and empathy to the future. We appreciate it so much.","fullyFundedDate":1745519982018,"projectUrl":"project/spreading-kindness-in-our-hood/9265467/","projectTitle":"Spreading Kindness In Our Hood","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Peters","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/272x272/tp1569987_272x272.jpg?width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1454703177232","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/n-peters"},{"teacherId":346474,"projectId":9247202,"letterContent":"Thank you so much for your generous support to this classroom project.

Using these story based explanations helps makes understanding phonics fun and intuitive. When introducing the stories we closed the doors and made sure we were keeping the \"secrets\" . Students were so excited and couldn't wait to hear the stories. Incorporating gentures also made the secrets even more engaging and help students easily embed the strategies into thier reading.
