I know it is difficult for them at first, but I am confident that with daily practice, we will achieve our goal.

By using technology to record themselves reading, students can listen back, notice their pacing, expression, accuracy, and phrasing, and then try again. Instead of fluency practice feeling like just another assignment, it has become an opportunity for students to hear their own growth.\r\n\r\nOne of the most exciting parts for my students is being able to become the \"voice\" behind their reading. They love recording, listening to themselves, and working toward a smoother and more expressive performance. Some of my students still struggle with confidence when reading aloud, but these tools give them a safe way to practice, make mistakes, and try again. Little by little, they are learning to take more risks, recognize their progress, and feel proud of how far they have come. Those small moments of growth are our own kind of mic-drop moments! 🎤📚\r\n\r\nBecause of you, my students have more opportunities to grow as readers and to develop confidence at their own pace. Your support is helping them strengthen their fluency, celebrate their progress, and discover that becoming a confident reader happens one practice, one recording, and one brave try at a time.

I am writing to express my deepest gratitude for your support in bringing brand-new soccer balls to our elementary physical education classes. Your donation has directly transformed the way our students experience movement, teamwork, and health every single day. The Immediate Impact: Active Participation for All Before your donation arrived, our physical education department struggled with a severe shortage of functional equipment. Students often had to wait in long lines for their turn, or share deflated, worn-out balls among large groups. Now, our classes are filled with non-stop movement. Having enough soccer balls means that every single child can actively practice their footwork, passing, and\r\ndribbling skills at the exact same time. This drastic reduction in wait time has drastically increased their moderate-to-vigorous physical activity during class.\r\n\r\nBuilding Skills and Confidence. Soccer is an amazing tool for elementary students. It teaches crucial gross motor skills, tracking, and spatial awareness. Because of you, our students are building physical competence, which directly boosts their emotional confidence. Children who used to shrink away from sports are now eagerly stepping up to practice, feeling proud of their individual progress. The joy on their faces when they\r\nsuccessfully control a brand-new soccer ball is entirely thanks to your kindness.","fullyFundedDate":1772636069938,"projectUrl":"project/strong-hearts-soccer-start-in-pe/10099770/","projectTitle":"Strong Hearts & Soccer Start in PE!","teacherDisplayName":"Mr. Green","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-2_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/8315202"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_87029","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":528,"numTeachers":48,"percentFrplEligible":95,"percentAsian":0,"percentBlack":6,"percentWhite":7,"percentIndigenous":1,"percentLatinx":76,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","percentHawaiianImputed":2,"percentMultiracialImputed":4,"gradesServed":"Pre-K - 4","studentTeacherRatio":"11.0:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"URBAN","ncesMetroType":"CITY_LARGE"},"inStateSupporters":63.7,"schoolId":87029,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Prairie Queen Elementary School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Prairie Queen Elementary School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/oklahoma/oklahoma-city-school-district/prairie-queen-elementary-school/87029"}
