Funded Sep 1, 2023Thank you for the opportunity to enhance the learning of my 6th graders. The students loved learning about Anne Frank and it inspired some to start their own diaries. The book, The Diary of Anne Frank, also helped my students to understand narrative writing and perspective. In writing class, the students were asked to create a journal entry from the perspective of Anne Frank. They enjoyed this assignment and were able to empathize with Anne Frank's experience because of the insight the book provided for them.
Additionally, the students have been enjoying the items that were donated for our "calm corner." They particularly like the knot pillows! The calm corner provides the students with a safe and calm place in the classroom to read quietly and/or calm down if they are feeling dysregulated.
Thank you for supporting my 6th graders and myself this 23/24 school year!”
With gratitude,
Mrs. Donovan
