I am writing to express my heartfelt gratitude for your generous donation of two items to our classroom. Your support means more than words can convey, and I want you to know just how much we appreciate your kindness and thoughtfulness!\r\n\r\nIn today's ever-changing world, the resources available to our students can significantly impact their learning experience. Your donation of our Word Work Station and Classroom Library has provided us with tools that enhance our classroom environment and promote engagement among these first graders! These items are not just physical objects; they represent a commitment to foster a love of learning!\r\n\r\nThe Word Work station allows students have the opportunity to dive deeper into practicing how to read and pronounce words during our Station time. This resource allows them to explore concepts more thoroughly, encouraging hands-on experience and critical thinking. I have already witnessed their excitement as they use this new item, and the organization in the classroom has greatly increased! We use it every day!\r\n\r\nThe Classroom Library, is equally invaluable. It has opened up avenues for collaboration and creativity among students. With the library shelf, we are able to organize books and easily access them during our Morning Routine for reading. We use it every day!\r\n\r\nYour generosity does not go unnoticed. In a world where resources can often be limited, donations like yours make a difference! They allow us to create a richer, more dynamic learning environment that encourages exploration and curiosity. It is inspiring to see community members like you who understand the importance of investing in education and the future of children.\r\n\r\nI want to assure you that we will put your donations to good use (as we have already!). Our entire class is eager to engage with these new resources, and I am already planning lessons that incorporate them. Your contribution helps us not only to meet curriculum goals but to excite and motivate our students in a way that sticks with them long after they leave the classroom.\r\n\r\nOnce again, thank you for your generosity and support. It will not go unnoticed and will be appreciated daily!","fullyFundedDate":1729787726664,"projectUrl":"project/ms-webbs-classroom-library-book-shelf/8884056/","projectTitle":"Ms. Webb's Classroom Library Book Shelf and Word Work Station","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Webb","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp5094909_orig.jpg?crop=2189,2189,x0,y0&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1726625855618","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/5094909"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_15405","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":546,"numTeachers":40,"percentFrplEligible":74,"percentAsian":0,"percentBlack":0,"percentWhite":40,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":58,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"Pre-K - 1","studentTeacherRatio":"13.6:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"TOWN","ncesMetroType":"TOWN_REMOTE"},"inStateSupporters":83.3,"schoolId":15405,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Young Elementary School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Young Elementary School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/texas/seminole-independent-school-district/young-elementary-school/15405"}
