  • Reading Workstations in Kindergarten

    Funded Jan 17, 2021

    With the timing of this project being funded 2 different classes have been able to experience these resources. Last years group loved seeing all of the new manipulatives during workstations. They were able to explore, get hands on, and use their knowledge of letters and sounds to play these games.

    Now that a new group of Kindergarteners have started with me this year, they are slowly getting to use the new learning resources as well.

    So far we have used the Alphabet locks. They love this game because they get to find the matching letters to sounds and more and use the keys to unlock all of the locks. This is such a great resource for fine motor skills as well for many of them.

    As we implement more of the resources that were apart of this funded project I know they will love building words, matching items, making puzzles, and so much more.

    We can't thank you all enough for helping to fund this project! Our classroom and the kids greatly appreciate all of the items that came with it! It keeps learning fun in the classroom!”

    With gratitude,

    Mrs. Dane

  • Technology Rocks in First Grade!

    Funded Mar 29, 2017

    Thank you so much for your donation to our classroom. With Summer Break coming right when I received my Chromebook the students haven't been able to do too much with it. At the end of last year we were able to do fun educational games with it during Guided Reading on Friday's. The students loved it. We are currently working on rules to implement the Chromebook again.

    It has also helped me ton when it comes to testing. All of my testing materials are right at hand and I am able to mark answers quickly and keep track of students progress as we go. We are slowly working the chromebook into Guided Reading stations. So far a few students have been able to do word building games on it and have enjoyed learning new things.

    Thank you again for your wonderful donation to our classroom!”

    With gratitude,

    Mrs. Dane

In first grade students are still learning so many different aspects of the learning process. During lessons when we are using the SMARTBoard, if a student needs my help on a problem, I have to take extra minutes away from the lesson to assist them. This takes away from our learning time. Sometimes, I even have to shorten the lesson. In first grade, students need a lot of one-on-one attention and extra help! This iPad would help us greatly by allowing me to continue the lesson even when I am walking around and helping students. There is a wonderful app through the App Store that would go on the IPad and project to the SMARTboard remotely, wherever I am in the classroom.
