What began as a project for one class has grown far beyond what I ever imagined—it has begun to inspire students across multiple grade levels.\r\n\r\nThe books and resources you helped provide have become the foundation for exciting literature study groups. Students have not only deepened their understanding of stories, but they've also developed a genuine love for reading. It's been such a joy to see groups of students eagerly discussing the next big event in a book, or even asking to stay longer because they don't want their reading group to end. Conversations about literature are now spilling out into the hallways and playgrounds—students are talking about books in a whole new way!\r\n\r\nYour support has not only given us access to high-quality literature, but also to valuable resources from Teachers Pay Teachers and other supplies that make these book studies engaging and meaningful. These tools have allowed us to extend learning, provide enrichment opportunities with tutors, and create an atmosphere where students are excited to explore and think deeply about what they read.\r\n\r\nThank you for believing in our students and in the power of reading. Your generosity continues to make a lasting difference—one story, one discussion, and one inspired student at a time.","fullyFundedDate":1748047914488,"projectUrl":"project/empowering-young-minds-through-literatur/9204270/","projectTitle":"Empowering Young Minds Through Literature: A Novel Study Adventure!","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Trowbridge","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp9937914_orig.jpg?width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1741396833361","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9937914"},{"teacherId":10036802,"projectId":9359557,"letterContent":"Thanks to your generous support, our classroom library has blossomed into a space where young readers are growing in confidence, curiosity, enthusiasm, and joy.\r\n\r\nThese new books have opened the door to so many essential skills for my first graders—everything from learning how to sound out new words, to building reading stamina, to making meaningful connections between stories and their own lives. We are also practicing comprehension strategies, such as predicting what might happen next, identifying story elements like characters and setting, and retelling stories in their own words.\r\n\r\nReading in our classroom now feels like an adventure. Students eagerly browse the shelves, choose books that match their interests, and find cozy spots to dive into their stories. We've built routines where children read independently, share books with partners, and gather for read-alouds that spark lively discussions. The energy around books is contagious—students are recommending stories to one another, swapping favorites, and even asking if they can take books home to keep reading.\r\n\r\nSome students who once hesitated to pick up a book are now leading the way. One student lights up every time she finds a book about strong, adventurous girls, proudly showing her friends. \r\n\r\nThese moments remind us that access to the right books truly helps children see themselves, dream bigger, and grow as readers.\r\n\r\nYour gift hasn't just put books on our shelves—it has given my students daily opportunities to practice essential literacy skills, discover new worlds, and fall in love with reading. Thank you for helping us create a classroom where books are treasured, shared, and celebrated every day.","fullyFundedDate":1748048501458,"projectUrl":"project/inspiring-a-love-of-reading/9359557/","projectTitle":"Inspiring a Love of Reading","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Korn","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp10036802_orig.jpg?crop=547,547,x892,y244&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1747321159538","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/10036802"},{"teacherId":9505213,"projectId":8618182,"letterContent":"Thank you so much for your incredible generosity and kindness in supporting our classroom!
