On the very first day of school, we used our new rhythm sticks and egg shakers while singing multiplication facts, and the kids had so much fun turning math into music. The very next day, I read A Bad Case of Stripes (one of the books you provided) and the students loved it! We had a great discussion about being yourself and having confidence, and it was such a meaningful way to start the year. We've also started reading Summer of the Monkeys together as a class. It's such an engaging story, and I've noticed students paying attention and being excited to find out what happens next.\r\nThe snacks you sent have been so helpful for keeping students focused and energized throughout the day, and the grow lights you funded have allowed me to keep three live plants in our windowless classroom. The plants have brightened our space and given the kids a fun way to connect with nature. Your donations have made our classroom feel more welcoming, engaging, and full of opportunities to learn.

These additions have been transformative for my students and their reading journey. With these texts, I've been able to teach critical skills like fluency, comprehension, and vocabulary development, all while fostering a love for diverse genres. For instance, mystery books have helped students practice making predictions and inferences, while biographies have introduced them to historical figures and narrative structures. By providing engaging and relevant stories, your donation has opened the door to countless \"aha!\" moments for my students.\r\n\r\nIn our classroom, reading has taken on a whole new life. Students are exploring new genres, such as fantasy, historical fiction, and graphic novels, many for the first time. These books are not just sitting on the shelves—they are being devoured during independent reading time and discussed enthusiastically in our small groups. I have seen significant improvement in students' prosody as they practice reading aloud with expression and rhythm. For others, fluency has improved as they eagerly reread favorite passages to fully grasp the story. The excitement in the room during \"book talk\" time, where students recommend stories to their peers, is truly heartwarming.\r\n\r\nOne student, in particular, has especially benefited from your generosity. A reluctant reader at the beginning of the year, they discovered a series of adventure books among the new additions. Since then, I've noticed a complete transformation; they're now often the first to open a book and the last to close it at the end of the day. The joy they've found in reading has also boosted their confidence in other areas of learning. Moments like these are a direct result of your kindness and support.\r\n\r\nThank you again for making such a meaningful impact on our classroom. These books are not just tools for teaching—they are gateways to discovery, inspiration, and growth.","fullyFundedDate":1725293699634,"projectUrl":"project/classroom-basics/8727664/","projectTitle":"Classroom Basics","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Ogden","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp9515188_orig.jpg?crop=1487,1487,x268,y300&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1713470868992","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9515188"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_33342","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":590,"numTeachers":null,"percentFrplEligible":10,"percentAsian":0,"percentBlack":0,"percentWhite":91,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":4,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"K - 5","studentTeacherRatio":null,"demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":false,"titleOne":false,"metroType":"SUBURBAN","ncesMetroType":"SUBURB_LARGE"},"inStateSupporters":86.4,"schoolId":33342,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Mapleton Elementary School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Mapleton Elementary School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/utah/nebo-school-district/mapleton-elementary-school/33342"}
