Having a full class set of novels transformed our reading experience. My students were able to follow along closely during our daily read-aloud, which led to rich discussions about character development, theme, and the emotional growth of the characters. Even the hesitant readers were so invested in the story, they wanted to read aloud too. Your gift allowed every student to feel included and engaged as readers.\r\n\r\nAfter finishing the book, we celebrated in true Winn-Dixie fashion with a class party inspired by the joyful gathering at the end of the story. Students were thrilled to watch the movie afterward, pointing out details that connected with, or differed from the novel. Comparing the book and the movie helped them think deeply and critically about storytelling choices. In addition to the books, we also received several chess sets and puzzles. These have quickly become a favorite in our classroom. Students choose them during indoor recess, during our after-school program, and even as a quiet activity when they finish their work early. I love being able to offer them fun activities that help them learn.\r\n\r\nYour generosity brought excitement, connection, and meaningful learning to our classroom.

Because of your generosity, my class had incredible opportunities to learn through hands-on exploration. The 3D human body torso was a favorite. Students were fascinated as they took it apart, studied each organ, and then reassembled it. We studied 5 human body systems for our informational writing unit. It made learning about anatomy come alive in a way that no textbook could.\r\n\r\nAnother highlight was the construction kits. They dove right in, working together to design, build, and problem-solve. These activities sparked so much creativity and curiosity, and it was wonderful to see the excitement on their faces as their projects came to life.\r\n\r\nYour support makes a real difference in my classroom.

For my students, the majority of whom are Native American, having access to a library that reflects their identity and heritage is profoundly meaningful. These books provide mirrors to see their cultures and traditions, creating a sense of pride and belonging. At the same time, they also serve as windows into the experiences of other communities, helping to build empathy and a broader understanding of the world.\r\nThe impact of your generosity is already visible in our classroom. My students are excited to discover stories that resonate with their lives and experiences. They've been eager to read about characters who look like them, share similar values, and navigate familiar challenges. These connections help validate their perspectives and instill confidence. Beyond that, exploring works by authors from diverse backgrounds enriches their learning and inspires them to dream big, knowing their unique stories matter. \r\nYour support is a meaningful investment in our students' education and personal growth. By providing them with a library that reflects their heritage and celebrates diversity, you are helping to nurture self-esteem, curiosity, and a love of learning. Thank you for helping these young minds see the beauty in their own identities and the value of embracing humanity. Your kindness makes a lasting difference in their lives, and we deeply appreciate it.\r\nThe book titled, \"Raven: A Trickster Tale From the Northwest\" was a class favorite. After reading the story, students made connections and found similarities in some of the Spokane Tribal stories they have grown up with. Additionally, each student drew a bird using the Pacific Northwest Native American art style seen in the book. \r\nWith Gratitude,\r\nMs. Leibrant and class","fullyFundedDate":1726698967516,"projectUrl":"project/decolonize-our-class-library/8787753/","projectTitle":"Decolonize Our Class Library!","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Leibrant","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-1_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9255921"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_121501","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":null,"numTeachers":null,"percentFrplEligible":91,"percentAsian":0,"percentBlack":0,"percentWhite":0,"percentIndigenous":22,"percentLatinx":2,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"Not specified","studentTeacherRatio":null,"demographicsDataSource":"MDR District Record","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":false,"metroType":"RURAL","ncesMetroType":"RURAL_DISTANT"},"inStateSupporters":70.7,"schoolId":121501,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Wellpinit Elementary School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Wellpinit Elementary School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/washington/wellpinit-school-district-49/wellpinit-elementary-school/121501"}
