Your kindness has brought such excitement and curiosity into our kindergarten classroom.\r\n\r\nEach month, when the new magazines arrive, my students light up with joy. These magazines have quickly become one of our favorite parts of the week! We use Let's Find Out to explore age-appropriate nonfiction texts that help build early reading and comprehension skills. The engaging photos, simple text, and fun activities make reading feel like an adventure for my young learners.\r\n\r\nScience Spin has been a perfect way to bring science to life for our class. From learning about animals and weather to exploring plants and space, the magazine connects directly to our science curriculum in a hands-on, meaningful way. The real-world topics spark great classroom discussions and often inspire our writing time, too. After reading, we love drawing pictures and writing sentences about what we've learned—helping us grow not only as scientists but also as writers.\r\n\r\nThanks to you, my students are developing a love for reading and science that I know will stay with them for years to come. You've helped create a classroom environment full of wonder, learning, and joy—and for that, I am incredibly grateful.v","fullyFundedDate":1757518178902,"projectUrl":"project/learning-with-scholastic-magazines/9579145/","projectTitle":"Learning With Scholastic Magazines","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Mollo","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp2371589_orig.jpg?crop=1:1,smart&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1645270471987","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/ms-mollo"},{"teacherId":2371589,"projectId":9126177,"letterContent":"It's hard to believe we are already nearing the end of the school year!

Many of them have worked so hard this year to learn how to sound out words and are now able to read decodable books on their own—a huge accomplishment that they're incredibly proud of. These books will serve not only as tools for continued growth, but also as joyful reminders of the fun-filled days we've spent learning, laughing, and growing together.\r\n\r\nYour generosity has made a lasting impact, and I truly cannot thank you enough for being part of our classroom community.
