With your donations and support, I was able to set my students up with an organizational system they will be able to maintain. So far, students have been able to keep their class notes, planners, data trackers, and other important information in their binders and organized with the dividers. They have been doing a great job learning responsibility and organization. I hope this continues through the year and they will have learned some skills they can carry into middle school where organization will be their own responsibility.","fullyFundedDate":1752203099430,"projectUrl":"project/keep-it-organized/9339749/","projectTitle":"Keep it Organized","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Bailey","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-6_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9399411"},{"teacherId":9554592,"projectId":9299854,"letterContent":"Thank you so much for providing Scholastic News for my students this year. It is a full color magazine type resource that has several articles that are kid-friendly, and timely with current events. We are using this resource as part of our Social Studies curriculum. Each week the students read the Scholastic News (cover to cover) and complete a quiz that is on the back of the magazine. It requires students to go back to the text and look for the answers to the questions. Not all questions are as simple as finding a word definition or answering a yes or no question. Students are often given multiple choice questions that require them to go back and physically identify or eliminate certain answers.\r\n\r\nOne thing that we have added to our lesson plans this year is to use the Scholastic News to help students identify text features, text structures, themes, etc. This make using Scholastic News not only a social studies resource based on content, but an ELA resource as we analyze the texts from an ELA point of view. Students work together in small groups to complete the Scholastic News and I try to get them graded before the end of the week. Then, when there are errors, I give them back to students to correct their work so that they are learning from their mistakes. Over time, they get better at completing the quiz because they are learning to analyze the text more closely, while they are learning about current events.\r\n\r\nThank you again for providing this engaging and fun resource. My students are loving it, and I appreciate the opportunity to provide them a resource they enjoy using. Your support in this meaningful way is very encouraging to me as a teacher.","fullyFundedDate":1746316589360,"projectUrl":"project/social-studies-doesnt-have-to-be-boring/9299854/","projectTitle":"Social Studies Doesn’t Have to Be Boring!","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Morris","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp9554592_orig.jpg?crop=2560,2560,x0,y110&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1721584494770","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9554592"},{"teacherId":10030586,"projectId":9339378,"letterContent":"WOW!
