  • Reading Comprehension Fun!

    Funded Sep 26, 2019

    Thank you for providing some fun Reading comprehension activities for my students. With these materials my students have been interactively practicing their reading. They have been able to get sight word and phonics practice.

    The Giant Writing paper has been of great help teaching my students how to use and write on notebook paper. We have been using the giant magnetic paper during writing time and then we put it away for the next day. It makes our writing process so much easier and it provides a visual for them.

    We have been learning about sequencing and thanks to these materials my students were able to get a hands on experience. Sequencing has become a skill they want to practice over and over because they enjoy putting the events in order and writing sentences to match.

    I have a few English Language Learners and thanks to all these great visuals and resources my students have been able to make connections and practice their reading and vocabulary. Thank you!”

  • Seating Options!

    Funded Oct 1, 2019

    Thank you for providing my students with a fun and safe seating option. We are very thankful for the wobble stools. My students cant wait for reading time to get an opportunity to use these fun seating options. During reading to self or small group time, my students get excited to have these as one of our seating options.

    During small group time my students use these wobble stools at the small group table, while they are working on reading and math. They love to safely move and wobble on these stools. Thank you!”

  • Practice, Practice!

    Funded Apr 10, 2019

    Thank you for all the fun and educational materials. We have been busy using and enjoying them. My students have been working really hard with their addition and subtraction skills. They have been learning and practicing place value concepts. They have become so confident that they were excited to practice more addition and subtraction 3 digit equations.

    For the students that were struggling with this math concept, Having worksheets that helped their place value and their digits stay organized and aligned helped provide that extra visual support to understand the reasoning why and how place value addition and subtraction works. Once they saw that connection they became more excited and wanted to practice more.

    After they mastered that we started learning and practicing multiplication. These materials have helped us learn and practice many math skills.”

  • Ready, Read, Comprehend

    Funded Apr 10, 2019

    Thank you for your generosity and help, we we are very thankful to have leveled books to now add to our library. My students have been practicing the foundation skills needed to learn, and are super excited to get their hands on new books. Having these books with simple sentences and pictures, has helped my students read and feel confident about their reading. The early readers have especially enjoyed the new books.

    These new books have helped me teach them the patterns of words within and they have been able to gain the confidence they need by recognizing the sight words they have worked so hard all year long to learn.

    In the classroom when its independent reading time they borrow books from our library that are at their reading level. Thank you for helping me provide access to materials to help my student boost their reading!”

  • I Can Hear It Read!

    Funded Oct 19, 2018

    Thank you for your generosity! Providing headphones for the classroom has been so helpful. Having these headphones allows my students to work independently on reading programs while I meet with small groups during reading workshop. Some of the skills my students work on during this time are basic reading skills such as listening to stories read aloud to them, working on phonics, and reading short phrases or stories while answering comprehension questions.

    Your generosity has tremendously helped my students gain the confidence they need with reading because of all the fun practice they receive. They have fun practicing the skills they need with a tablet and headphones. They truly enjoy quietly listening to stories read to them and the headphones are perfect for them to block out the noise out while they enjoy a story. Thanks to your donations my students look forward to learn and practice their reading skills every day!”

    This classroom project was brought to life by Verizon and one other donor.
I am asking for containers to help my students have a place to store everything they need throughout the day. With these containers my students will be able to have their individual book box to store all their books and classwork. They will also have their team containers (classroom caddies), that will hold pencils, erasers, and pens for them to share. The mailbox will be used as a way to send papers home with them. These materials will help with the setup and structure of our classroom in order to maximize learning time! With these materials my second graders will be able to easily access everything they need and have a place to hold their materials that need to go home.
