We read the novel, studied classic poetry, and even wrote some poems of our own. We dove into our own creativity in making our journals, too. It was amazing to see students who claimed all year long that they didn't like to read bag to read the novel and write their own poetry! It was such a wonderful project, and I can't wait to do it again this year! Thank you so much for being a part of our incredible year of learning.","fullyFundedDate":1742965457002,"projectUrl":"project/love-that-poetry-with-love-that-dog/9137825/","projectTitle":"Love That Poetry with Love That Dog!","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Riddle","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp9528664_orig.jpg?crop=960,960,x0,y0&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1714955951266","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9528664"},{"teacherId":5163445,"projectId":8580310,"letterContent":"Thank you for providing my classroom with fantastic resources to enhance fitness in the BEST Room. Fitness plays a crucial role in helping my students, who often face emotional challenges, regain a sense of control during their outbursts. They particularly enjoy using the stationary bikes, as it allows them to track their steps while staying in one place instead of wandering the school. Each student has discovered something they love in the room, including the slam balls, which they never imagined they could throw around, given their weight of 30 pounds. Transforming my students' mindset is the most rewarding aspect of introducing these changes to my classroom environment. Thank you to \"The Gates Foundation\" for matching the people who support me.","fullyFundedDate":1723730384515,"projectUrl":"project/growth-done-by-da-best/8580310/","projectTitle":"Growth Done By DA BEST!!","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Walker","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/272x272/tp5163445_272x272.png?width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1517847904309","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/5163445"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_15398","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":981,"numTeachers":79,"percentFrplEligible":95,"percentAsian":0,"percentBlack":19,"percentWhite":2,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":75,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"6 - 6","studentTeacherRatio":"12.4:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"SUBURBAN","ncesMetroType":"SUBURB_LARGE"},"inStateSupporters":65.8,"schoolId":15398,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Cobb Sixth Grade Campus on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Cobb Sixth Grade Campus","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/texas/galena-park-independent-school-district/cobb-sixth-grade-campus/15398"}
