  • Binders for Organization

    Funded Sep 10, 2024

    Thank you so much for your generous donation towards my project "Binders for Organization." We are using the binders in class to organize student work, such as their stories they are writing, corrected math and spelling tests, and notes they are taking in class.

    The binders have been very useful in class and are a great way to teach organizational skills to students. All of their work is kept in one place and is easy for them to access.

    Once again, thank you so much for your donation! Your kindness does not go unnoticed!”

  • Future Volleyball Athletes

    Funded Dec 2, 2023

    Thank you so much for your generous donation towards my project "Future Volleyball Athletes." My students have always enjoyed passing a volleyball around at recess, and now through this donation, we are able to set up a net for them to hit the ball back and forth in game-like situations.

    The addition of new volleyballs is also key to the students being able to enjoy the game of volleyball. They have already played games against each other and these donations have instilled a greater love for the game.

    Once again, thank you so much!”

My students love to read, and with the opportunity to read in the comfort of bean bags and floor chairs, they will maximize the sustainability of their work time. Many times, my students will lose focus due to distractions surrounding them, or the discomfort of their chairs. The projected outcome of providing students with a variety of seating options allows them the opportunity to be able to focus and work in comfort. These flexible seating options will provide students the opportunity to work in a comfortable environment while focusing on their learning outcomes. These seating options are ideal for our reading centers. While students are focused during their independent reading, I am able to run small guided reading groups simultaneously and devote my instruction without distractions.
