  • Big Kids Like Picture Books Too

    Funded Nov 23, 2024

    I can’t thank you enough for supporting my project! I can’t wait to share the good news with my students that you were all so generous to support our classroom.

    This Thanksgiving I am thankful for my school, students, and individuals like yourself that support public education.

    On behalf of myself and my students, thank you so much!

    Happy holidays to you and your family!!”

    With gratitude,

    Ms. Molina

  • Not So Scary Speeches

    Funded Oct 5, 2022

    I can't thank you enough for supporting my students with this project. With the transition to this amazing new content and not having a classroom to teach from for most of the school year (The new buildings are almost done!) I have had to think outside of the box for the delivery of quality instruction for my students.

    The iPad and Bluetooth speaker have been invaluable in our class. We have been able to go outside to listen and reflect on speeches which was a huge hit with the students. Sometimes a change of scenery is just what we all need.

    Once I have my own classroom, I will still be able to utilize the iPad and Bluetooth speaker to hold class in other environments. I'll also be able to utilize both pieces of technology in stations we often complete in class.”

    With gratitude,

    Ms. Molina

    This classroom project was brought to life by SONIC Drive-In and 6 other donors.
  • Race to the White House

    Funded Jan 12, 2019

    Thank you so much for your support of my classroom and my students.

    Social Studies is very often not a favorite class of many students. I always strive to incorporate fun application of knowledge into my class each year. After seeing the Race to the White House board game on Amazon I knew this would be a great addition to the civics curriculum in my classroom.

    My students were very excited to see the box arrive and couldn't wait to play the game. They had an great time playing the game and were able to put their skills into action.

    Thank you again for your support!”

    With gratitude,

    Ms. Molina

  • History Fun and Games

    Funded Sep 13, 2018

    Thank you so much for contributing to my project. My students' eyes lit up when I pulled out the board games. They were very excited to play the game and put their knowledge of the Constitution to the test. There were negotiations to see who would get to use which Founding Father game piece. Once the students were able to get started they were able to use the information we covered in class to play the exciting game.

    I can't thank you enough for supporting the learning of my students and showing them that Social Studies can be fun!”

    With gratitude,

    Ms. Molina

I am so happy and fortunate to teach social studies. It brings me such joy to share my passion with my amazing students, however, I feel that I could expose my students to so much more if I had access to just one iPad. For some students, social studies can be really challenging; I strive to reach these students and bring history to life. I am so lucky to have access to a smart board in my classroom. I incorporate this into my lessons almost every day. That being said, I know that there is more I can do to engage my students. With an iPad in my classroom I would have the ability to sync the iPad with the smart board and download apps that teach map reading skills. My students could learn to think like a historian. We could go through the history channel to play trivia games or watch primary source video footage of the topics we are learning. My students would be able to go further than a google search or a photo in a text book and I could use it to build a technology based curriculum tailored to the standards we are learning about. It would allow us to go further than the limitations of the smart board and I could really show my students why I love history. I can't tell you the joy it would bring me to take my students on a virtual tour of the Smithsonian, or to use google earth to show them what the ruins from Ancient Rome look like from the street. With your help I can teach theses students to explore the world from my classroom, I can teach them invaluable research skills and I can bring a new level of engagement to my class.
