  • Helpful Headphones!!

    Funded Sep 6, 2019

    We have a personalized learning environment with our 2nd through 5th graders. All of those students have theor own device. We use technology every single day. We watch videos to help direct instruction, we practice our facts, spelling, grammar, quizzes, etc. For SO many things. So a lot of times our students are doing slightly different things at the same time while small group instruction is happening. The headphones help tremendously with keeping the noise and distractions to a minimum. Kids can focus on what they're doing and they also drown out some other background noise that may be happening. We ask kids to being headphones from home, but for many that is a struggle. Now all my kids don't have to worry! I appreciate your help and support in this!”

  • Comfy and Creative Ways to Start our Mornings

    Funded Aug 18, 2019

    Thank you so much. Our mornings with our soft start tubs have been so great. The students are loving all the extra choices they have in the mornings, or let's face it, indoor recess too! The students are learning to work collaboratively, learning to share, be creative, and we work as a team in cleaning up as well. It's made our mornings run so smoothly. And they love the additional seating made available by our donors choose. Our floor seats and yoga balls are two of the favorites for sure. This helps ensure all students are learning to the best of their ability. Thank you all again so much for your support in my classroom!”

These materials are going to be a great addition to our classroom by increasing our options for soft starts. Currently we have a small collection per classroom, otherwise we have to share items across our building. I found my students to be very engaged in the building toys to begin their day, so that is why I decided to focus on those materials. We use them every morning, they are also a great addition to indoor recess options as well. We have a mixed grade level homeroom, so this will help students collaborate, be creative, feel safe and confident, build relationships, and so much more to get their day started off on a positive note.
