Organized Students = Successful Students

Funded Oct 31, 2016

The donated materials have made a great impact in the learning and work productivity of my students. Student grades are no longer being affected due to missing work. In addition, there is little to no time lost when transitioning from one assignment to another. With your help and generous donation, I was able to put together a binder for my students with all the necessary materials for their English class.

Every student received a binder, dividers, red homework folder, and a pencil pouch. The dividers help students categorize their classwork and notes. The red folders stand out in their backpacks. They also help them keep their homework assignments neat and clean. In the pencil pouch every student was supplied with pencils, pens, highlighters, and ear buds. The ear buds have been extremely helpful when students have had to view videos in class. Before they each had their ear buds, students had to use the speaker in order to listen to videos. The ability for students to listen to the audio of these videos without surrounding noise has helped to create a better learning environment, especially for students who struggle with attention. This project has made a greater positive impact than expected. Not only did it help provide a more organized and structured learning environment, but it has also helped my students work more independently.

All of my students were very happy and excited to receive their new classroom supplies. Many of them have expressed that they like how everything is organized and feel good about not losing their work and keeping it neat. They like the feeling of always being prepared for class and like that the binders help minimize distractions. One student even said, "I like this. We should have done this since the beginning of the school year!"”
