Organized Headphones
Funded Jul 30, 2024Headphones are allowing students to stay focused on their iReady Reading and math program, as well as hear the program more clearly. Students are enjoying this new product as they are not always able to purchase headphones themselves from home. In addition, many students struggle with distractions. By having headphones, they are able to block off extra noise and focus on the task they are completing in the moment.
I have found that my girls love them most and are able to get their work done and be role models for the rest of the class. The color organizers with the headphones allow headphones to stay in good condition and not get tangled either.
Thank you again!”

Recess Equipment
Funded Jun 12, 2023Students are using the soccer balls, kickballs, chalk, and jump ropes at recess. Our playground area is very limited, and these materials allow them to use something, while hanging with their friends.
Students were amazed to realize they had all new supplies for recess just for them. They felt like they were important and thought of as we started this new year. They were most excited for the variation of color they could choose from the soccer ball colors.
I think the next steps would be to add more supplies for recess so all interests are met.”

Funded Jun 12, 2023The seat sack organization has been amazing! In the past, I have always had students shove things in their desk and get super disorganized. With these seat sacks, students are able to put all of their new reading materials in one spot for easy access. Their desk is used for the math curriculum so it's easy to take out during parts of the day.
The students couldn't believe they had their own place to put new materials. They were so happy to have the extra support to keep them organized.
Next steps are to keep them clean to reuse them other years, as well as not overstuff them so they don't rip.”

Funded Jun 12, 2023The headphones have been the best supply so far! It helps with our testing windows, as well as our independent time using iReady, ST Math, and arc bookshelf on our chromebooks. Students are happy to have their own headphones, as they cannot always afford their own.
In addition, the seat cushions make reading as a whole group comfy instead of sitting on the cold, hard floor. I find some students even using them on their chair for extra cushion. They are always excited to pick their color of green or blue. They also have their own organization system in the room.
Supplies such as scissors and glue sticks have been used to support our reading curriculum. This week they are working on creating characters as a puppet form to use them in writing their own stories with elements such as characters, conflict, resolution, setting, etc.”
