  Thank you all for supporting "Writing Pops With Toner." Your generosity is completely overwhelming and has been instrumental in taking literacy to the next level.

  As you can see from the photos, my students were so eager and excited about printing their animal reports. They conducted online research and grabbed BEAUTIFUL color images of animals to include in their reports. My students are looking forward to writing and publishing reports on other topics and using the color printer to ensure their writing "pop' with color.”

• Say What?

  Funded Mar 27, 2018

  Again, thank you so much for supporting our classroom project to enhance classroom discussions. Being able to communicate, and collaborate a are 21st century skills. Having a Qball enables my students to fully participate in classroom discussions where they can agree or disagree, build on the ideas of others, and build their academic vocabulary and language skills. Now, even the students who speak softly will not go unheard. With the Qball they are able to connect ideas and/or build on the ideas of others. No doubt, the best part of having a Qball in the classroom is being able to toss it around. Thank you for making classroom discussion fun!”
