At the start of each unit, I can pull the books I can utilize for each grade I work with. Now I am more efficient at delivering content with these 'big books' that support my instruction.\r\n\r\nThe book rack also allows me to stand the books on an easel rack, so that my hands are free to gesticulate and point to either pictures or text in the book. The cart is also easily movable and can be shared with other teachers in our multi-grade classroom. \r\n\r\nWe would like you to know how much the students and staff in our classroom appreciate your gift. I never let too much time go by without drawing attention to it so that students know the kindness of someone they never met who felt compelled to gift our class something that can be used to make the most of their education. It conveys how valuable their education is that a stranger was considerate and generous.","fullyFundedDate":1760399166635,"projectUrl":"project/big-books-access-for-beginning-readers/9415234/","projectTitle":"Big Books Access for Beginning Readers","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Noel","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp7243716_orig.jpg?crop=807,807,x0,y16&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1590491690322","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/7243716"},{"teacherId":10289674,"projectId":9766093,"letterContent":"Thanks to your generosity, my Living in Color project has made a meaningful and immediate impact in the classroom. The bright markers, vibrant cardstock, and high quality paper are now used daily to support instruction, organization, and creative expression across ELA subjects. \r\n\r\nStudents use the markers to annotate and highlight One key ideas, revise writing, and clearly show their thinking during lessons. The colored cardstock is used for graphic organizers, vocabulary activities and project-based learning, helping students sort, identify patterns, and make connections between concepts. The variety of colors allows students to visually code information, separate ideas, and present their work with clarity and confidence.\r\n\r\nMany of my students do not have access to these materials outside of school. Having them readily available in the classroom ensures that every student can fully participate in learning without barriers. I have already seen increased engagement, stronger task \r\ncompletion, and greater pride in student work.","fullyFundedDate":1760748197367,"projectUrl":"project/learning-in-color/9766093/","projectTitle":"Learning in Color","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Taylor","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp10289674_orig.jpg?crop=212,212,x0,y43&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1758995785086","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/10289674"},{"teacherId":2673431,"projectId":9731848,"letterContent":"Thank you so much for fully funding \"The Heat is On\"!\r\nThe students were thrilled when the microwave and the toaster oven were delivered.
