Because of your donation, I have developed a curriculum for the novel that my department and I will use with our English 11 students. These curriculum materials--incorporated into our unit on \"The American Dream\"--include vocabulary activities, character analysis, journaling prompts, reading strategies to apply to the novel, and a final reflection on the novel's key themes.\r\n\r\nIn our classroom, reading is interactive and often done as a whole-class activity. With graphic novels, students will often choose to read as reader's theater (reading aloud as a particular character, using the visual cues to see when to speak). This makes reading fun for kids, who get to know characters and feel a connection to their individual parts of the collective story.\r\n\r\nYour support hasn't just filled our bookshelves; it has opened doors.

The index cards are being used during our study sessions to help students organize and review key concepts, making studying more effective.

These items may seem small, but they are essential in creating an environment where my students can focus on learning without distraction.\r\n\r\nWhen the students first received the materials, their faces lit up with surprise and appreciation. Many of them expressed their gratitude, and it was clear how much these small but meaningful items meant to them. It was an important moment for our class because it reminded them that there are people who care about their well-being, beyond just their academic success. This kind of support builds trust and encourages a sense of community in our classroom.\r\n\r\nLooking ahead, we are diving deeper into our current lesson on personal organization and responsibility. The index cards will continue to help students take ownership of their learning, and the personal hygiene items will ensure that they feel confident and comfortable while participating in class.
