Thank you so much for supporting my classroom! My students are going to be so excited to use these new pieces of equipment for our science projects. The elementary educational environment plays a key role in student learning.
High-quality elementary science education is essential for establishing a sound foundation of learning in later grades, instilling a wonder of and enthusiasm for science that lasts a lifetime, and in addressing the critical need for a well-informed citizenry and society. Science is a hands-on subject and my students were not getting the full experience, but thanks to your generosity we can now go exploring!”
With gratitude,

This classroom project was brought to life by Optimum and one other donor.
Thank you so much for supporting my classroom! This project is very important as we are really focusing on spreading kindness throughout the school! The Kindness Club will be very excited to see all the items they are going to use to help spread kindness around the school building. Everyone can always use a little kindness to make their not-so-good day brighter. Research shows that when we cooperate and show kindness to our fellow humans, we become healthier, happier and more successful. This project is going to allow us to recognise and praise students when we notice them being kind and supportive to one another. We truly appreciate your support in this project! Thank you again!”
With gratitude,
Ms. Grist

Math facts are important because they form the building blocks for higher-level math concepts. When a child masters their math facts, these concepts will be significantly easier, and the student will be better equipped to solve them faster.
Math fact fluency is the ability to quickly and accurately recall the answer to basic math facts. To be considered fluent, students should no longer need to rely on strategies such as counting on their fingers or drawing models to compute.
In third grade, students must fluently add and subtract within 1000 using strategies and algorithms based on place value, properties of operations, and/or the relationship between addition and subtraction. Knowing their math facts will allow them to answer questions more efficiently.
