Adventures in Reading Book Clubs
Funded Nov 26, 2024I am incredibly grateful for your generous donation to fund book sets for our classroom book clubs. Your support will have a significant impact on my students' literacy development and overall educational experience.
Book clubs are crucial for elementary students because they foster a love of reading by providing a social space to discuss books, share perspectives, and deepen understanding of the text. While also building important communication skills, encouraging critical thinking, and promoting empathy through exposure to diverse characters and themes. Your donation will provide my students with the opportunity to engage in meaningful discussions, develop strong reading habits, and become lifelong learners.”

Fueling Future Minds Through Non-Fiction Books
Funded Oct 3, 2024I am incredibly grateful for your generous support in funding my non-fiction book grant. Your contribution will have a profound impact on Twin Creeks students, enabling them to delve into a vast array of subjects and expand their factual knowledge. By exposing them to diverse perspectives and complex ideas, I aim to cultivate a generation of critical thinkers who can analyze information, form informed opinions, and solve problems effectively.
Furthermore, your support will enhance my students' vocabulary and reading comprehension skills. Access to a wide range of non-fiction texts will allow them to encounter new words and sentence structures, fostering language development and fluency. By engaging with challenging texts, my students will learn to analyze complex ideas, make inferences, and synthesize information, ultimately strengthening their overall academic abilities.”

This classroom project was brought to life by SONIC Foundation and one other donor.Flexible Seating
Funded Oct 11, 2019Thank you so much for allowing me to have flexible seating in our classroom. My students were thrilled when all the large boxes showed up in our room, and they were even more excited to start using the lap desks and stools. We have had the items for a while now and not a single day goes by that they haven't been used. During flexible work time, students immediately grab a lap desk or stool and make their way to a place in the classroom to work.
These two items have allowed my students more choices within their school day. I have noticed student engagement go up when allowed to sit around the room and use the desks and stools.
Thank you again for allowing my students access to these items. The lap desks and stools will be used in my class for years to come.
Sincerely,
