I would like the students to dive further into the stories and learn new story elements and learn strategies for retelling stories or important events in the story. As for my older students, being able to comprehend and tell important details/events would be awesome to achieve as well!","fullyFundedDate":1730387431221,"projectUrl":"project/good-books-great-readers-snacks-to-fu/8837459/","projectTitle":"Good Books, Great Readers & Snacks to Fuel Minds","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Hong","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-6_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9692710"},{"teacherId":9692710,"projectId":8681423,"letterContent":"Thank you so much for your donation to support my classroom and students! My students have absolutely loved reading the books \"Pencils on Strike\" and \"If You Laugh, I'm Starting This Book Over\". They ask me to read them all the time! My students have also enjoyed using the putty as a fidget option to help them stay relaxed and focused. They also love that the putty changes colors! The one that gets bickered over the most is the red and yellow. \r\n\r\nI have also enjoyed reading the following books to my students with more significant needs: \"My Mouth is A Volcano\", I Have Ants in My Pants\", and \"The Girl Who Makes a Million Mistakes\". These stories are more personal and relatable to my students and puts the understanding of the story more to their level. \r\n\r\nMy students were most excited for the Blue Ball seat as well. That is another item that is constantly up for battle of who gets to use it! \r\n\r\nThank you again so much for purchasing these items for my students! I hope these materials will continue to bring students many laughs and happiness.","fullyFundedDate":1727474517208,"projectUrl":"project/happy-minds-and-happy-hearts/8681423/","projectTitle":"Happy Minds and Happy Hearts","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Hong","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-6_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9692710"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_55707","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":373,"numTeachers":24,"percentFrplEligible":30,"percentAsian":3,"percentBlack":1,"percentWhite":82,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":7,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"K - 6","studentTeacherRatio":"15.5:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":false,"titleOne":false,"metroType":"UNCLASSIFIED","ncesMetroType":"TOWN_DISTANT"},"inStateSupporters":73.9,"schoolId":55707,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Bannach Elementary School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Bannach Elementary School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/wisconsin/stevens-point-area-public-school-district/bannach-elementary-school/55707"}
