I am incredibly grateful and so excited to bring these wonderful new books to our students this year. They are all processed, ready to go, and will be available for checkout next week!\r\n\r\nI especially wanted to share a picture of our Axolotl shelf, because you helped make this special collection easy for students to find. With the cute axolotl stuffed animal and now another book added to the collection, I know our students are going to be so excited! They LOVE axolotls!\r\n\r\nThe Polar Bear Ballerina book is especially meaningful to us because we are the Polar Bears—and so many of our girls love ballet. Seeing a student of color represented on the cover will help our students see themselves reflected in our library and will bring so many smiles.\r\n\r\nReplacing our lost Wings of Fire Book 2 was also important because this is such a popular series. And adding a new series with Super Pancake looks like it is going to be a huge hit!\r\n\r\nEvery one of these books has a purpose. You are helping our students see themselves in the books they read, discover new interests, and feel welcomed and represented in our library.\r\n\r\nThank you for helping me make my dreams come true for our students. I want our library to be a place where every child feels that they belong and can find a book that makes them excited to read.\r\n\r\nMy heart is full of gratitude.

I am hoping that this will increase student responsibility in maintaining a clean work space and help students get less sick. When students are present in the classroom, they are learning.

When they miss school, they miss opportunities to learn, make friends, build relationships, and experience social interactions with others.\r\n\r\nWe truly appreciate the donations of wipes to help keep our classroom clean!","fullyFundedDate":1778000567860,"projectUrl":"project/clean-classroom-means-students-are-prese/10002298/","projectTitle":"Clean Classroom Means Students Are Present and Learning!","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Chism","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-3_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9026484"},{"teacherId":1040839,"projectId":10001345,"letterContent":"My small but mighty group of 3rd, 4th and 5th grade students are currently still working on this community project. They started in September with identifying a problem in their community that they wanted to solve. They chose their basketball court, which has dirty, damaged, cracked, graffitied walls. They all agreed that if they could add some color to this space that it would help kids feel more inspired; inspired to be kinder to themselves and others, that they would generally feel more welcome and happy in their play space. So, my students all decided they wanted to paint a mural.\r\n\r\nThey are currently working hard on picking a design for the mural. That has proven to be one of the biggest challenges of this project so far. They are having to navigate differing opinions and the feelings that come with it. They are having to practice a variety of skills in this process: listening, being vulnerable, emotion regulation, collaboration, compromise, critical thinking, etc. Thank you for making this amazing opportunity possible.","fullyFundedDate":1769178139034,"projectUrl":"project/creating-a-colorful-joyful-play-space-f/10001345/","projectTitle":"Creating A Colorful, Joyful Play Space for All","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Rozario","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp1040839_orig.jpg?crop=2089,2089,x72,y10&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1763501147579","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/1040839"},{"teacherId":3581814,"projectId":9753668,"letterContent":"With your donation, our playground area got a fun and colorful addition!
