  • Listen Up!

    Funded Jan 30, 2023

    My class and I are so thankful for the new headphones! They use them to access important learning materials for our math curriculum. Additionally, they access fun and educational coding programs like scratch junior. Before we only had a very small number of headphones so only about 3 kids could participate at a time. Now tho, the whole class can work on our math skills practice program success maker while I teach a small group, or do one on one assessments. These headphones have helped make my classroom a fun and pleasant place to teach.”

    With gratitude,

  • Making Great Choices

    Funded Sep 29, 2022

    My first graders have made an incredible amount of growth in all academic areas this year. They have also made amazing growth socially and emotionally. In our class we earn class points toward free play time in the afternoons. My students have learned how to work together and follow expected behavior and make strong choices so they can, together, earn the ten points needed for free play time. They are motivated to earn free play because the awesome materials that you helped purchase are fun, engaging, social, creative, and educational (that one's for me though haha). Thank you again so much!”

    With gratitude,

  • My First Graders Come First!

    Funded Aug 27, 2016

    I am so grateful that you helped fund my project "My First Graders Come First". The materials I bought make learning fun and natural for my students.

    The math games I got allow them to work in pairs or independently to practice a variety of skills like counting, composing and decomposing numbers, place value and geometry.

    The literacy games I go help my students practice phonics like beginning, middle, and end sounds to help them sound out words in text more easily.

    The Piggy and Elephant library you helped me purchase serves every student every day. They love these characters and we use the stories to practice comprehension skills like re-telling and identifying character traits.

    My students are amazing, and your support helps them grow e=more each day!”

    With gratitude,

    Teacher Laine

These materials will provide my students with independent learning activities and books. While some students work independently I can work on targeted math and phonics/ comprehension instruction. For my diverse group of kids, small group instruction and differentiation are key. I will use the phonics stations to target skills that different students are working on; what's great about these phonics games is that students can also use them independently while I work with strategy groups on other skills. The math folder games are excellent for the workshop model I use because students can work in pairs or independently. Finally, I need an 'Elephant and Piggy' collection and Spanish books so my classroom library has familiar characters and a diversity of languages!
