Audiobooks for Early Readers!

Help Active Learners Focus and Move!
Funded Feb 21, 2022This project has had an AMAZING impact on my students' day to day experience in the classroom. I mostly wanted flexible seating to support my neurodivergent students, but it has benefited EVERY student in my classroom. Every morning they choose their seat for the day that will help them learn best. They can move to anywhere in the classroom with their flexible seating to help them focus. Many of my students choose to use the noise reducing headphones to help them during independent work, and the noisy times when we are singing songs or counting together. Our new offices have really helped my learners block out distractions and focus on their task. I love that the fidgets and chair bands help my kiddos to wiggle while they work. Their attention has improved, and they do their best work when they are able to move, stand and stretch out. Thank you so much for making this project possible. I have wanted to try implementing flexible seating for many years in my classroom, and your donations made it possible. Now I have seen the amazing results and will continue to use these items every year.”

Exciting Books for Eager Young Readers
Funded May 5, 2020WE DID IT! Our project has been funded, and when my students walk through our classroom doors, there will be new, engaging books for them to choose from. Thank you! You have made a difference. Students only develop a love of reading when they find a book that they LOVE!”

This classroom project was brought to life by SONIC Drive-In and 4 other donors.New Classroom Library for Little Readers!
Funded Jul 8, 2018I cannot thank you enough for your contributions to our classroom library. It is definitely my students' favorite spot in our room! They love to see our new read alouds on display on the bookcase, and it is the first place they run to during Read to Self time. I love their excitement to go "book shopping" to pick out new books from our shelves to put in their book bins each week. They know the reading bench has special chapter books, and are counting down the days til they are ready to pick from those buckets! They love to lounge on the bench and look through their books. They are always finding new ways to use it! When we do a read aloud on the carpet, only the best behaved students get to sit on the bench, and it is a reward they work hard for. Your contributions to our classroom are furthering their love for reading and encouraging them to reach their goals. You have made a difference for these students, most of whom do not have positive reading environments or resources at their homes. THANK YOU!”
