We truly appreciate your kindness!\r\n\r\nIn our classroom, reading is an interactive and joyful experience that fosters a love for stories and learning. We focus on developing print concepts by teaching children that print carries meaning, understanding how books are organized, and recognizing front covers, titles, and author names. Engaging with books involves shared reading, active discussions, and encouraging children to predict and retell stories.\r\n\r\nWith our new texts, we're introducing skills such as identifying letters and sounds, understanding that print is read from left to right and top to bottom, and recognizing word boundaries. To connect phonemes with graphemes, students practice segmenting sounds in words, matching sounds to their corresponding letters, and blending phonemes to form words. These foundational skills support their decoding abilities and foster early literacy development.","fullyFundedDate":1745848137105,"projectUrl":"project/building-book-by-book/9229901/","projectTitle":"Building Book by Book","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Jackson","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp1732493_orig.jpg?width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1692046106241","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/1732493"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_77990","uses�ǿմ�ý":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":109,"numTeachers":19,"percentFrplEligible":95,"percentAsian":0,"percentBlack":100,"percentWhite":0,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":0,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"Pre-K - 5","studentTeacherRatio":"5.7:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"URBAN","ncesMetroType":"CITY_LARGE"},"inStateSupporters":44.9,"schoolId":77990,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Jefferson Elementary School on @�ǿմ�ý:","schoolName":"Jefferson Elementary School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/missouri/st-louis-public-schools/jefferson-elementary-school/77990"}
