The new graphic novels you provided have energized our classroom reading time and given students accessible, high-interest texts that build real literacy skills. Graphic novels are especially powerful for helping readers practice sequencing, understanding character development, and drawing inferences from both text and illustrations. Paired with the relaxation lighting, our reading area now feels warm and inviting and is an ideal space for students to settle in, focus, and truly enjoy reading.\r\n\r\nI'm already seeing students engage with books in ways they hadn't before. One student who rarely chose to read independently has already finished multiple graphic novels and excitedly shared his favorite scenes with classmates. Another has started using our cozy reading corner as a peaceful spot to unwind with a book between activities. Your generosity has created a space where reading feels enjoyable, approachable, and something students look forward to each day. Thank you for making this impact possible.","fullyFundedDate":1763905559914,"projectUrl":"project/lighting-the-way-with-books-and-calm-spa/9842896/","projectTitle":"Lighting the Way With Books and Calm Spaces","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Simmons","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-3_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/10177265"},{"teacherId":8782843,"projectId":9641412,"letterContent":"Thank you so very much for your donations! The tissues and hand sanitizer are almost gone due to cold/flu season, and we greatly appreciate having them! My students have also enjoyed the treats as rewards for their hard work or the choice of free time earned to play Chess instead. \r\n \r\nMy students were thrilled to swap out their old grungy folders for their new shiny folders with sticky notes included in the pockets to help them in their core classes. The podium has been a huge success with helping my students with their wiggles and also to stay awake on those difficult days.","fullyFundedDate":1758544503523,"projectUrl":"project/high-school-support-and-incentives/9641412/","projectTitle":"High School Support and Incentives","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Koster","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-2_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/8782843"},{"teacherId":5071367,"projectId":9618813,"letterContent":"Our after-school students are absolutely loving the new materials!

The students have been meeting once a month early in the morning before their first class, before breakfast, to get their bodies moving and center themselves for the day. There's something about coming together during those early morning hours, moving as the sun is rising, that creates a powerful environment for learning. The students have been exposed to new kinds of movements and challenges both physical and mental.\r\n\r\nThe students are learning how to regulate their systems by trying different breathing techniques, different movements, and building their sense of awareness. The students have all been participating and were excited to pose for the pictures to say thank you. The mats have given the opportunity for the students to also practice responsibility as they use and care for them.\r\n\r\nWe are excited to continue the program and see how the learning evolves.

These resources will make lessons more interactive and meaningful, helping each student grow in confidence and curiosity.\r\n\r\nAs an educator, it's inspiring to know that there are people like you who believe in the power of education and the importance of giving students every chance to succeed.

They are also more eager to ask for assistance in assignments and activities, knowing there is a reward for them. When students are given these snacks, their energy levels stay balanced throughout the day and it has improved attention, memory, and participation in class. This brain fuel is what they need to think clearly and solve problems accurately, during these long school days. \r\n\r\nThese rewards may seem small, but even these smelly/scratch and sniff stickers, pack a powerful motivational punch. They are fun scented rewards that are handed out for a variety of things including good behavior, effort, and/or academic achievements. They are more than just stickers, they're badges of pride.

We are deeply grateful for your generous support. Some of our students come from underprivileged backgrounds, and while they care very much about how they present themselves and the spaces they learn in, they often don't have access to the supplies they need at home.\r\n\r\nYour gift of tissues, hand sanitizer, and cleaning supplies does more than just keep our classroom clean and healthy—it gives our students the chance to take pride in their environment. With these resources, they can create a space that reflects care and dignity, helping them feel more confident and respected every day.\r\n\r\nWe also appreciate your generous donations of scented pencils, pencil topper animals, earbuds, and food for our classroom. These contributions make a tremendous difference for our high school students. Positive rewards give them something exciting to work toward, and your support helps us recognize both their academic efforts and the good choices they make each day.\r\n\r\nThe food treats and prize items not only motivate students, but also show them that their hard work and positive behavior are valued. For many of our students, these rewards create lasting encouragement and help build a classroom culture where effort and kindness are celebrated.\r\n\r\nThank you for empowering our students to not only learn, but also to thrive in a setting where they feel valued and supported.","fullyFundedDate":1756858313448,"projectUrl":"project/motivation-matters/9655703/","projectTitle":"Motivation Matters","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Gootkin","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-5_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/10227048"},{"teacherId":10186410,"projectId":9618757,"letterContent":"On behalf of my students and myself, I want to thank you for your generous donation to our \"From Chaos to Cozy: A Reading Retreat.\" Your support has made a difference in the experiences that I have been able to provide to my students on a daily basis.\r\n\r\nMy students and I have already used our new resources in a variety of ways. During our Charlotte's Web Novel Study, students were able to relax and unwind on the classroom carpet and enjoy each other's presence. Students were very excited when it was time to read, as it meant they could sit back and take a break from their desk.\r\n\r\nThis is my first year in the classroom I am currently teaching in, so there have been a few missing materials and pieces to make it feel complete. When the carpet and reading bins arrived, it was the first thing my students noticed and were excited that not only would their reading materials be easy to find, but they would have a safe place to relax with one another.","fullyFundedDate":1755649905379,"projectUrl":"project/from-chaos-to-cozy-a-reading-retreat/9618757/","projectTitle":"From Chaos to Cozy: A Reading Retreat","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Weber","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-6_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/10186410"},{"teacherId":10177265,"projectId":9595962,"letterContent":"Thanks to your generosity, our classroom has undergone a powerful transformation, becoming a space that not only supports academic growth but also encourages emotional regulation, personal responsibility, and self-respect.\r\n\r\nOne of the most exciting parts of this project is how we've integrated the new flexible seating options into our classroom reward system. Students don't automatically get to use these items; they earn access to them by reaching behavioral milestones and achieving higher ranks within our structured behavior system. These ranks reflect consistent positive behavior, emotional growth, and academic engagement.\r\n\r\nThe day the materials arrived, our students were buzzing with excitement. One student, who had proudly earned her rank, was the first to choose a bean bag as her new learning spot. With a huge smile, she said, \"This makes me feel like I really earned something big.\" That moment perfectly captured the heart of this project.\r\nThese seating choices are more than just about comfort; they're a visible symbol of progress. They help students stay focused and calm, but more importantly, they serve as powerful motivators. When students know they're working toward something meaningful, it inspires accountability and pride in their progress.\r\n\r\nYour support did more than fund new furniture, it helped us create a classroom culture. Thank you for believing in our students and being part of something that truly matters.","fullyFundedDate":1755380579549,"projectUrl":"project/wiggle-while-you-work/9595962/","projectTitle":"Wiggle While You Work","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Simmons","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-3_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/10177265"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_97871","usesÐÇ¿Õ´«Ã½":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":59,"numTeachers":22,"percentFrplEligible":94,"percentAsian":3,"percentBlack":33,"percentWhite":12,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":51,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"3 - 8","studentTeacherRatio":"2.7:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"SUBURBAN","ncesMetroType":"SUBURB_LARGE"},"inStateSupporters":61.5,"schoolId":97871,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about New Beginnings - Naples on @ÐÇ¿Õ´«Ã½:","schoolName":"New Beginnings - Naples","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/florida/collier-county-public-schools/new-beginnings/97871"}
