They participated in themes like censorship, conformity, and the destructive nature of technology. We compared what Ray Bradbury wrote in 1953 with our current society. Students drew conclusions and had lively discussions throughout this novel. Students tracked character change and participated in a final compare and contrast essay. \r\n\r\nThank you so very much for supporting my classroom and giving students an opportunity to have access to a classic like Fahrenheit 451.","fullyFundedDate":1746480640349,"projectUrl":"project/classic-novel-study/9245131/","projectTitle":"Classic Novel Study","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Yette","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp9754701_orig.png?crop=200,200,x0,y58&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1726602980544","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9754701"},{"teacherId":4811925,"projectId":8213903,"letterContent":"The impact that these books have had on my readers is huge. By teaching this book at the beginning of the school year and having this experience, my students turned into readers this year. The average growth for reading was huge in their test scores and I had students telling me that they have not only read one book this year, but several. These books sparked a love of reading when so many just don't like to read anymore.\r\n\r\nThank you so much for fulfilling this request.

Having a class set of headphones has been valuable to the learning environment. Students can listen to music while they work. They can all be researching a project and watching different videos at the same time without bothering others. During state testing each student had a comfortable, reliable set of headphones to use.\r\n\r\nThe different colors of the headphones has also been fun. I have never seen so many boys fight over the pink ones. Some students have liked them so much, they forget to return them to me at the end of the period.\r\n\r\nThank you so much.","fullyFundedDate":1708277991854,"projectUrl":"project/new-headphones/8213995/","projectTitle":"New Headphones","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Patnode","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/272x272/tp4811925_272x272.jpg?width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1505857210633","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/4811925"},{"teacherId":9754701,"projectId":8795091,"letterContent":"Students are able to watch videos at their own pace without the sound of others disrupting their learning.

Your contribution has made a significant difference in the learning experience of my students and I want to share some of the remarkable ways these headphones have enhanced our classroom environment \r\n\r\nThe headphones have allowed my students to engage with learning materials through multiple modalities. Whether they are listening to audiobooks, watching educational videos, or following along with interactive lessons, the ability to personalize their auditory experience has fostered greater engagement and comprehension. Students are learning not only through reading and writing but also through listening, which caters to diverse learning styles.\r\n\r\nIn addition, the headphones have proven invaluable in helping student to manage their anxieties.Music has a profound ability to soothe and calm, and many of my students have used the headphones to listen to calming tunes during stressful periods.
