This has allowed more teaching time as well since I am not having to pass out whiteboards, markers, and erasers. Students are not able to draw on themselves as well.

Novels such as these provide my students with the opportunity to take a deep dive into grade level appropriate literature. \r\n\r\nI'm thrilled that they will get to explore two different genres, historical fiction and fantasy. While reading \"Bud Not Buddy\", they will gain knowledge of the Great Depression as they travel with Bud on his courageous journey to discover the true meaning of family. Additionally, they will embark on an adventure with Minli to find unwavering friendship, selflessness, family values, and the true meaning of fortune.\r\n\r\nI am looking forward to engaging in rich whole group discussions and observing the positive impact these award winning books will have on my students!\r\n\r\nThank you so much for your generosity and kindness!","fullyFundedDate":1742933366287,"projectUrl":"project/get-lost-in-a-good-book/9177331/","projectTitle":"Get Lost in a Good Book!","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Robinette","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/272x272/tp2660945_272x272.jpg?width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1469828014516","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/jennifer-robinette"},{"teacherId":2660945,"projectId":9211502,"letterContent":"Wow!

These books will provide my students with the opportunity to experience a variety of genres and writing styles. \r\n\r\nIn addition to broadening their interests in literature, these books will enhance their perspectives. They will allow them to see the world through different lenses by exposing them to different emotions, experiences, and environments.
