Having an organizational bin has allowed students to feel ownership of their belongings, while also helping them develop important skills on how to be organized throughout their day. \r\n\r\nThese bins have enhanced our classroom by giving students a tool they can use to succeed.

Several students have become a pilot or astronaut and visited various places, while others have turned into detectives with the spy costume. The spy costume has been particularly popular for students. We've created clues to help solve mysteries, put on television shows that are occasionally spooky for the student that loves Halloween, and snuck around the classroom being a spy. \r\n\r\nOur new wooden doll furniture has been a hit, especially since our old set was getting so worn out and broken after years of use! Students were thrilled to unpackage each piece and add it to our box. The extra bubble wrap was a delight as well. \r\n\r\nThe wooden train tunnels and bridges have been wonderful as well.

Through this text, my students honed their ability to analyze character development, understand themes, and identify figurative languageāall while deepening their historical knowledge. These skills not only supported their growth as readers but also prepared them for more advanced academic challenges.\r\n\r\nIn our classroom, reading is an interactive and collaborative experience. Students discuss chapters in small groups, connect historical events to the text, and engage in creative activities like journaling from a character's perspective or debating the motives of historical figures. The excitement was palpable as students eagerly dove into discussions, challenged one another's ideas, and shared their interpretations.\r\n\r\nYour donation gave my students the tools to not only read but also to think critically, connect deeply, and appreciate the power of storytelling.
