Help My Class Go Back in History with New Materials
Funded Aug 15, 2018
Words cannot describe how happy and thankful I am for receiving the materials that were donated to and for our classroom. Our classroom is now complete thanks to your generous contributions. Our social studies program has been enriched tremendously, now that our students have the necessary visuals to connect their content to real life.
Reading is done daily in my classroom. Students get the opportunity to read each morning, during ELA, and throughout other content areas such as science and social studies. Students can now grab relevant books relating to their social studies topics.
All students are enjoying the books and materials donated. They love grabbing them during social studies, or reading them in their free time and summarizing what they've learned.”
With gratitude,
Ms. Espinosa

My students will be introduced to a new social studies curriculum this year, and with your help, they will be able to touch, feel, and visualize history with these materials. Students can be taught history, however, it becomes much more meaningful and memorable when you see what you are learning about. I have hand picked materials that correlate to each new unit and I know they will make all the difference in my students' learning. For example, our first unit is on Geography. The World Atlas Book will help students understand how we identify areas on a map and how we use proper resources, such as an atlas, to do so. The vintage map of New York will show what familiar places, such as Manhattan, used to be and how it got its name. In our Second unit on Native Americans, students can touch and feel an actual Native American medicine pouch. A majority of my students have never experienced life outside of Brooklyn, so these unique materials will help them experience history and historical events firsthand.
