When the magnetic letters and dry-erase boards arrived, my students were so excited—they couldn't wait to dive in.

Now my tactile kiddos—who really need to touch and move things to make sense of sounds—can tap out words, slide the magnetic letters into place, and then write them on their boards. I've already seen a boost in confidence and participation, especially from the kids who usually sit back during whole-group lessons.\r\n\r\nNext up, we'll be using these tools for some word-building challenges and vowel team games. It's been so exciting to see my students light up when learning finally \"clicks\" for them. Your support helped make that happen, and I'm so grateful.","fullyFundedDate":1672420615458,"projectUrl":"project/fun-with-words/7080097/","projectTitle":"Fun with Words","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Deaton","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/272x272/tp1052736_272x272.jpg?width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1487348723074","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/ms-drum"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_1885","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":614,"numTeachers":45,"percentFrplEligible":62,"percentAsian":5,"percentBlack":36,"percentWhite":26,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":28,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"K - 5","studentTeacherRatio":"13.6:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"URBAN","ncesMetroType":"CITY_MIDSIZE"},"inStateSupporters":71.4,"schoolId":1885,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Reedy Creek Elementary School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Reedy Creek Elementary School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/north-carolina/wake-county-public-school-system/reedy-creek-elementary-school/1885"}
