It may seem like a small detail, but in a busy classroom, having access to sharpened pencils can make a huge difference in keeping students focused and ready to learn.\r\n\r\nBefore this project was funded, we were constantly dealing with broken, ineffective sharpeners and dull pencils. It disrupted lessons, slowed down our momentum, and often left students feeling frustrated. Thanks to you, those interruptions are now a thing of the past. The new sharpeners are efficient, durable, and easy for students to use independently, which helps our day run more smoothly and gives students a greater sense of responsibility for their materials.\r\n\r\nThis simple tool helps keep our learning environment calm, organized, and productive. When students don't have to worry about whether their pencil is sharp enough to complete a task, they can focus on what matters—thinking critically, writing confidently, and staying engaged.\r\n\r\nIt's amazing how something as basic as a pencil sharpener can boost both student independence and classroom efficiency.

Thank you very much.\r\nTeaching books really entails understanding what the core points are from them and helping them see how things not only come out in an interesting book but also how they apply to the real world. This might sound odd when talking about fantasy and magic but even with these there are core truths we can distill from the text and help students understand them and use them to start thinking about things, real things. They are life microcosms, the best ones, which can serve as a beginning point to understand the world and the people in it.\r\nEven fantasy can help do this because, after all, if it were entirely unrelated to life or to what people feel and think, they would not be read. This is beside the fact that they tend to be more engaging to students these days.\r\nReading books can help promote critical thinking, in other words. This can go too far at times with analysis of everything about it. This can stomp out what is appealing about the book in the first place. It also takes the fun out of it and that means that the engagement we want and need disappears. We need the story to capture the students interest, keep them engaged, so that we can teach them something about the truths these books contain, about life, about the human condition, etc. \r\nReading the words themselves and understanding the text and the story also helps students to be able to think, to put things together and see how ideas and narratives flow. This is important in helping students learn to communicate.\r\nThere were students that were much more involved than others of them were. That is often the case, most especially in lower income areas like ours was. But these engaged students were excited to read it.","fullyFundedDate":1746787057880,"projectUrl":"project/reading-is-fun/9200277/","projectTitle":"Reading is Fun","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Clark","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-1_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9636021"},{"teacherId":5106925,"projectId":9280874,"letterContent":"I wanted to take a moment to extend my heartfelt thanks for your generous contribution to my DonorsChoose project, \"Cancel the noise learning with headphones\".
