Funded May 8, 2024The new resources have genuinely transformed our classroom environment and learning experiences. For instance, the sentence strips have been fantastic for helping students build sentences. We've also been using the large magnetic notebook paper to model paragraph writing during our writing lessons, which has been incredibly effective. The dry-erase markers and whiteboards are great for writing practice. The triangular pencils have been a big hit for helping students learn how to hold a pencil correctly.”

Thank you for your donation!! My first grade students were so excited when we received our items. When my students are done with math or independent work they can work at a center.
