Your donation has made a huge difference in our school library and has helped us create a more student-friendly space. We've introduced book bins and sturdy book bags, and the positive impact has been immediate and wonderful.\r\n\r\nThe moment the students first saw the new bins was absolutely priceless. Their eyes lit up with excitement as they immediately started exploring the different sections. The students can find their favorite author and keep saying how excited they are that they are all together. Which they always have been, but it just shows what a difference the bins make. Our student volunteers have also taken so much pride in the new system, which has given them a more organized way to participate and take ownership of the library.\r\n\r\nWe are already putting the new resources to great use. This month, we're focusing on our author study of Kevin Henkes, and the new bins make it so easy to display his books prominently. The students are excitedly finding his titles and checking out multiple books. We're also using the new book bags for our reading groups, which has streamlined the process of getting books for our lessons and has given us more time to focus on our discussions. Thank you again for helping us foster a lifelong love of reading in our students!","fullyFundedDate":1748535955768,"projectUrl":"project/help-us-browse-our-library/9072979/","projectTitle":"Help Us Browse Our Library!","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Solis","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-10_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9903599"},{"teacherId":10005431,"projectId":9284724,"letterContent":"Thank you so much for donating to my classroom! The kids are LOVING the new games. When playing games, they forget that they are actually working on important communication skills. As you probably know, the amount of resources that the school system can purchase are somewhat limited. It gets very expensive for me to buy all these supplies for my students on my own. Your generosity is greatly appreciated! You have helped bring joy to kids who need it most. Most of my students struggle financially and academically. I wish you could see the face of the little non-verbal boy when bees fall from the tree in the Honeybee Tree game. He tries so hard to say bees and leaves and my turn when we play. The Greedy Granny game causes squeals of excitement every time she wakes up. Between turns, we practice our speech goals. It is so much fun!
