  • Rally and Celebrate with Eagles Mascots and Games

    Funded Oct 31, 2018

    Words can not express my gratitude for your kindness and generosity towards my students. I am excited to share with them the good news that our project was funded. I know they will enjoy learning with these new activities, and our school events will be greatly enhanced by the presence of our very own mascot! Thanks again and God bless each of you.”

    With gratitude,

    Ms. Robertson

  • Reading and Math Intervention Resources Needed for ESL Teacher

    Funded Feb 17, 2017

    Thank you so much for supporting education, and specifically my students. These resources will be of great use to the children. My students face many difficult obstacles in their community, and resources like these will give them access to experiences they wouldn't normally have. May God bless each of you!”

    With gratitude,

    Ms. Robertson

My ELL students are reading below grade level expectations even with interventions in place. The Evan-Moor skills books and center activities will allow me to provide them developmentally appropriate instruction in my intervention groups. This reduces frustration and increases success! It also improves comprehension which is the ultimate goal. When commonly used words are mastered the students will be able to increase their reading levels. I will teach them to use the pictures and letter/sound connections to figure out unknown words. It is my goal to have ELL students reading on grade level by the time they leave our elementary school. My students also struggle with word problems, so I have requested some daily word problem books at lower levels so they can have success at their reading level. Lastly, my students struggle with re-grouping when adding and subtracting multi-digit numbers. That is why I am requesting money manipulatives of varying place values (pennies are hundredths, dollars are ones, 100 dollars are hundreds, etc.) for solving addition and subtraction problems with re-grouping. ELL students are unfamiliar with many topics in reading books. I will use these books in small groups so I can give these students instruction specifically for them. This will create self-confidence, improve reading, and create a love of reading!
