My students use these new resources daily, especially during our literacy block. One of the most exciting moments was when students explored the new books for the first time! We had debates about who were the strongest aninmals. There was an immediate buzz of excitement. Students who previously struggled to stay engaged were eager to read and even asked for extra reading time!\r\n\r\nWe've been using the materials during small groups, independent reading, and hands-on literacy centers. For example, students are now participating in book based discussions where they share ideas and make connections, something they were hesitant to do before.\r\n\r\nIn addition, the cleaning materials, including disinfectant wipes, have helped us maintain a clean and safe learning environment. Students take pride in helping keep our classroom materials and shared spaces sanitized, which supports both health and responsibility.\r\n\r\nMoving forward, students will continue building their reading stamina and comprehension skills through guided reading groups and independent projects. These resources are helping them grow into more confident, motivated readers, and your support has made a lasting impact on their learning experience.","fullyFundedDate":1774832898958,"projectUrl":"project/ms-gs-star-scholars/10150599/","projectTitle":"Ms. G's Star Scholars","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Guzman","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-7_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/10462693"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_6186","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":425,"numTeachers":33,"percentFrplEligible":95,"percentAsian":0,"percentBlack":28,"percentWhite":50,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":9,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"Pre-K - 5","studentTeacherRatio":"12.9:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"RURAL","ncesMetroType":"RURAL_DISTANT"},"inStateSupporters":68.6,"schoolId":6186,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Cottageville Elementary School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Cottageville Elementary School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/south-carolina/colleton-county-school-district/cottageville-elementary-school/6186"}
