  • Once Upon a Dream With STEAM Books

    Funded Mar 30, 2017

    Thank you for the high-interest books and puppet we received through your organization. They've already made a huge impact in my instruction and the children's reading skills and abilities. I have been able to integrate the books into my daily instruction by having the students gather in small groups and use the materials you have so generously provided. In one group, the children read the books and then are expected to complete different activities based on their ability level. The other groups greatly enjoy playing with the puppet and acting out plays. They've improved their reading by now being motivated to pick up a book and enjoy what they are reading.”

  • Hands-On Is Minds-On Science

    Funded Jan 17, 2017

    I would like to thank you very much for your generous donation of the three Fairy Tales Problem Solving STEM Kits for my third grade classroom. My students have really enjoyed working in small groups to complete the three fairy tales STEM challenges.

    We have been reading an assortment of fairy tales as part of our fairy tales reading unit. My students have been so excited to revisit these three classic fairy tales and complete the problem solving STEM challenges during our weekly STEM rotations. They really liked the materials, the engineering challenge, and the wonderful characters that were included in each of the STEM kits. This project has really helped bring more excitement and enjoyment to my STEM and reading lessons because now my students have been able to use their creativity and practice their teamwork skills as they worked in small groups to complete each of the fairy tales STEM challenges.

    Your donation has given my class three wonderful STEM kits. This has helped to inspire my student's imagination and positively influence many of these students to pursue careers in the STEM fields. Thank you!”

    With gratitude,

    Mrs. Fink

  • Tooning Up With TOON Books

    Funded Jan 20, 2017

    Thank you so much for your generous donations. Thanks to you my students will have new books to fall in love with. These books were selected with the intention of helping struggling and/or reluctant readers get connected with engaging books. Furthermore, Toon books are a great resource that will provide my students with a immense opportunities to practice reading using visual supports.

    People's generosity never fails to amaze me. These gifts mean so much to me and my students. Your donation, no matter what size, has made a difference for these students.”

  • The Power of S.T.E.A.M Kids and Science

    Funded Jan 15, 2017

    I just wanted to thank you for your generous donation to purchase the Fairy Tales Problem solving Stem kits for my students. I wish you could have seen their faces when the boxes arrived, they were so excited! Science workstations are their favorite part of the day. Science and reading have many process skills in common. The same skills that make good scientists also make good readers: engaging prior knowledge, forming hypotheses, establishing plans, evaluating understanding, and determining the relative importance of information. Therefore, teaching reading and science through STEM activities is very effective and rigorous.

    Hands-on materials are so vital to learn reading and science effectively. The students have to move the pieces around to solve the problem and visualize the skills they are learning. Your donation made it possible for me to be a more effective teacher this year, because it made my students excited to learn more science and reading!

    We are very grateful for your generosity and I especially appreciate the smiles you put on the faces of my students."”

    With gratitude,

    Mrs. Fink

The STEAM activities will help my students become creative problem-solvers and provide them with the necessary STEM knowledge and skills that will make them become innovative and imaginative thinkers. These STEAM kits will also help make abstract STEM concepts tangible by taking teaching out of the textbooks and putting it into the hands of your students. The STEAM kits will also create a better understanding of STEM subjects while building 21st-century skills. These STEAM activities that are available through DonorsChoose would allow my students to expand their learning. These activities would allow science, technology, engineering, mathematics, and coding come to life. The unique combination of the, classroom-friendly software, and engaging, standards-based projects results in a resource that builds students’ confidence to ask questions, define problems and design their own solutions by putting STEM learning directly in their hands. The most amazing thing about these activities is that it builds team work. They solve and learn together as a team. So let's get the “Power With Science, and make our STEAM activities a reality.
