Because of your kindness, our classroom now has valuable resources that are helping students grow as readers, writers, and bilingual learners every day.\r\n\r\nThe letter tiles and word-building materials have provided students with hands-on opportunities to practice word formation, phonemic awareness, and spelling. These interactive tools have helped students become more confident as they manipulate sounds and letters to build words and make connections between reading and writing.\r\n\r\nThe bilingual flashcards and books have been especially meaningful for our multilingual learners. These resources support biliteracy development by allowing students to strengthen their skills in both languages while building vocabulary, comprehension, and a love of reading. Students are excited to see themselves and their languages represented in the books they read.\r\n\r\nThe whiteboards have become an essential part of our daily instruction. They give students a safe space to practice writing, spelling, and responding to learning activities while receiving immediate feedback. The ability to write, erase, and try again encourages risk-taking and perseverance as students develop their literacy skills.\r\n\r\nYour generosity has provided tools that make learning engaging, accessible, and meaningful. Most importantly, these resources are helping students build the foundational skills they need to become successful readers and writers. Thank you for investing in our students' education and helping create opportunities for growth and achievement.\r\n\r\nWith sincere gratitude,\r\n\r\nRoxana Ramos Martinez\r\n Hazel Valley Elementary School","fullyFundedDate":1774320943599,"projectUrl":"project/readers-rising-building-strong-bilingua/9923468/","projectTitle":"Readers Rising: Building Strong Bilingual Foundations in Literacy","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Ramos Martinez","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp5206534_orig.jpg?crop=1:1,smart&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1689005376441","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/mrsramosmartinez"},{"teacherId":1070145,"projectId":9923060,"letterContent":"Thank you so much for providing my scholars with a healthy snack.
