We have been able to make our classroom library a comfortable area filled with books and cozy seating options for silent reading time. To help my class get some extra practice, my students have been using the writing tablets for writing their spelling words in a more engaging way. Having several choices for organizing materials has made storage and finding our resources easier for all of us. \r\n\r\nWhen the packages from this project started arriving to our classroom, my students said \"It feels like Christmas!\" If that does not show you how excited they have been to be able to receive and utilize these materials, I do not know what else would! My students were especially excited to use the writing tablets during small group time and sit on a fun green cushion while reading a book of their choice. Not to mention, how obsessed these young minds have been with the solar system rug!\r\n\r\nThis year, we are striving to make the holidays more meaningful to students beyond the tangible treats and toys they may receive during these times. Within the coming weeks, our first grade students will begin a turkey project. We are planning to use the construction paper and markers from this project to help students and their families complete their own turkey! While students are constructing their own turkey, they will be learning about the significance of turkeys for the United States of America and the impact that Thanksgiving has had on our communities.\r\n\r\nThank you again for your sincere generosity and know that our little class of first graders is so grateful for your kindness. We hope to spread that feeling to everyone!","fullyFundedDate":1785180020739,"projectUrl":"project/ms-rowans-first-classroom/10357771/","projectTitle":"Ms. Rowan's First Classroom","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Rowan","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp10540939_orig.jpg?crop=506,506,x91,y146&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1782751730093","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/10540939"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_33984","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":437,"numTeachers":31,"percentFrplEligible":65,"percentAsian":0,"percentBlack":1,"percentWhite":94,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":1,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","percentHawaiianImputed":0,"percentMultiracialImputed":2,"gradesServed":"Pre-K - 7","studentTeacherRatio":"14.1:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":false,"metroType":"RURAL","ncesMetroType":"RURAL_DISTANT"},"inStateSupporters":85.5,"schoolId":33984,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Eastern Elementary Middle School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Eastern Elementary Middle School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/virginia/giles-county-school-district/eastern-elementary-middle-school/33984"}
