We used the books for independent reading throughout the year, and after state testing, I incorporated them into literature circles where students could read, discuss, and share their thinking with their classmates.\r\n\r\nThe biggest impact was the diversity and inclusion these books brought to our classroom library. Students were excited to find characters, cultures, and experiences they could connect with, while also learning about perspectives different from their own. The books helped make reading more engaging and meaningful and gave my students more choices to find books they truly enjoyed.","fullyFundedDate":1762882501247,"projectUrl":"project/library-of-belonging-stories-that-matte/9463624/","projectTitle":"Library of Belonging: Stories That Matter","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Gaines","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp10079750_orig.jpg?crop=1:1,smart&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1752542616862","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/10079750"},{"teacherId":10079750,"projectId":9622511,"letterContent":"Thanks to your incredible generosity, my students now have flexible seating options that are transforming the way they learn each day! Many of my students struggle to stay focused and calm when working at traditional desks. The addition of wobble stools, egg chairs, and other flexible seating options has made a noticeable difference in both their focus and engagement.\r\n\r\nFrom the very first day the new seats arrived, my students were thrilled! Their faces lit up as they explored the different seating choices and quickly found the ones that helped them feel most comfortable. It was such a special moment to see their excitement turn into motivation — they were eager to get started on their work and proud to have a classroom that truly supports their needs.\r\n\r\nWe use these new seats every single day. They've become a natural part of our classroom routine, helping students take ownership of their learning space and make choices that help them succeed. As we continue our current lessons in reading and writing, the calm and focus these seats bring have allowed my students to dive deeper into their work with confidence.\r\n\r\nYour kindness and support have made a lasting impact. Thank you for believing in my students and giving them the tools they need to feel comfortable, focused, and ready to learn every day.","fullyFundedDate":1758202829072,"projectUrl":"project/a-classroom-where-every-student-finds-th/9622511/","projectTitle":"A Classroom Where Every Student Finds Their Spot","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Gaines","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp10079750_orig.jpg?crop=1:1,smart&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1752542616862","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/10079750"},{"teacherId":1023753,"projectId":9494914,"letterContent":"With gratitude and thanks- Thank you very much for the STEM supplies, indoor recess games, and fidget toys.
