  • All in the Family!

    Funded Oct 28, 2023

    Thank you so much for allowing my students to take their learning home to our families! These Family Engagement "Take Home Packs" have allowed my students and parents to continue to participate in fun interactive activities at home while still building important literacy and math skills. This has become a way for families to continue to build communication within the home, give additional support, and provide enrichment for their child. Parents have taken an active role in their child's education.

    When the students first saw the materials they couldn't believe their eyes. They were so grateful and excited to be taking these packs home. Right now the packs are split up according to the specific targeted skill each child needed more support in. Upon our return in January after Winter break, the packs will be switched.

    Through these Family Engagement packs parents have been able to take part in the skills their children are learning and support the areas needing extra practice for academic success. They have provided the additional resources needed to give parents everything they need to help their child with confidence. We want to thank you from the bottom of our hearts. My students, their families, and myself are truly FOREVER grateful!”

Parents have taken an active role in their child's education.

    When the students first saw the materials they couldn't believe their eyes. They were so grateful and excited to be taking these packs home. Right now the packs are divided in half, so approximately half the students have a math take home pack and the other half have a reading take home pack. Upon our return in January after Winter break, the packs will be switched and those who got the math pack first will now receive the reading and vice versus.

    This classroom project was brought to life by Sergey Brin Family Foundation and 3 other donors.
With iPads, my students will have access to great technology. My students will be able to access apps that reinforce skills and enable higher level learning. iPads will help my students who are kinesthetic and visual learners and open up the doors of education to help individualize their learning experiences. The iPads will become a tool that will help create more authentic learning experiences in the classroom as well as build twenty first century skills that my students need in order to be successful in a quickly evolving technical world. My students will be able to work in centers with the iPads, writing, reading, learning phonemic awareness skills, working with math manipulatives and more. They will be able to create both independent and collaborative projects in order to show true understanding of concepts. Without consistent access to technology, my students are not able to access 21st century skills. I believe that they deserve to explore and learn on the same level as students who have this access. Our classroom will be forever changed by the addition of iPads. All students will be able to access learning through technology on a daily basis - amazing!
