My students love graphic novels, and they love I Survived so this has been a great contribution. These graphic novels make reading a historical fiction so accessible to my students who can't tackle a novel yet. They can't get enough of them. I have multiple copies of several of them so they especially enjoy reading with a friend.\r\nThe novel sets we received through this project have also been so helpful. My students love reading a novel as a whole class and disscussing it. Having a complete novel set enables each student to hold a book in their hands. It also inspires them to read more from the same author, more books in a series, and more books from the same genre. They love to meet the challenge of reading a variety of genres in our 40 Book Genre Challenge.\r\nReceiving contributions from donors has made this possible in my classroom. I appreciate your support so much and so do my students!","fullyFundedDate":1785806034706,"projectUrl":"project/a-book-for-every-reader/10191796/","projectTitle":"A Book for Every Reader","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Clark","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-10_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/10478599"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_12094","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":158,"numTeachers":18,"percentFrplEligible":31,"percentAsian":0,"percentBlack":0,"percentWhite":82,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":14,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","percentHawaiianImputed":0,"percentMultiracialImputed":3,"gradesServed":"Pre-K - 12","studentTeacherRatio":"8.8:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":false,"titleOne":false,"metroType":"RURAL","ncesMetroType":"RURAL_REMOTE"},"inStateSupporters":100.0,"schoolId":12094,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Fort Elliott School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Fort Elliott School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/texas/fort-elliott-consolidated-independent-school-district/ft-elliott-high-school/12094"}
