We practiced comparing and contrasting stories, critically thinking about the central message or moral of the stories. Students even used the structure of the folktales to create their own retelling of a folktale! \r\n\r\nStudents loved seeing characters that represented all of their unique cultures and identities. During read alouds I routinely had students exclaim \"That's just like me!\" or \"That's just like my family!\". Seeing them see representation in a way that they hadn't seen before in school was so special. \r\n\r\nThese books made our unit so meaningful and engaging for students!","fullyFundedDate":1731609207960,"projectUrl":"project/folktales-for-fantastic-learners/8925742/","projectTitle":"Folktales for Fantastic Learners","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Coddington","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-7_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/1452733"},{"teacherId":8848909,"projectId":9068013,"letterContent":"Thank you for your support!

It made learning more fun and interesting for everyone.\r\n\r\nNext, the students will use what they've learned to do creative station to display their math and art projects.

This year we have been teaching writing in small groups which has made a significant impact of students writing skills and motivation. In small groups students can quickly get feedback and have more opportunities to learn from each other. \r\n\r\nWe noticed that our small group leaders were struggling to make group materials easily accessible to students in their groups. With the addition of whiteboards that can be easily moved around our space this problem has been solved. Not only do students get clearer instructions, but our small group leaders are able to take more initiative and will write notes for students during our breif whole group introduction.\r\n\r\nWhen talking to staff and students both said that the whiteboards make know what to do easier. This helps students grow their independent learning skills and will prepare them for their transition into middle school and beyond.","fullyFundedDate":1736382584631,"projectUrl":"project/small-group-whiteboards/8848798/","projectTitle":"Small Group Whiteboards","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Shaw","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-7_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/8849132"},{"teacherId":9719060,"projectId":8722960,"letterContent":"Thank you for creating positive impacts to our class.

During whole-group reading, they collaborated to \"create\" the story through their own words by looking at lively illustrations. These books were often chosen from our fun-book bin during partner and independent reading.
