Funded Sep 29, 2022I am so appreciative of having these materials donated to us. I use them daily to work with small groups. When the students arrive, we first use the phonogram cards. The phonogram cards are instructional cards that are used daily for automaticity drills. These cards incorporate consonants, vowels, and new sound concepts reviewed daily. The SPIRE workbooks are used for group work and independent practice. Each book consists of vocabulary development, reading comprehension passages, independent practice activities, and graphic organizers.
When the students meet with me, we use the phonogram cards daily for letters and sounds practice. They have been able to say the letters and sounds with automaticity because of the daily repetition. I've noticed a big difference. When learning new skills, the students can apply what they are learning when reading engaging texts and answering comprehension questions. The classroom teachers have been expressing how this program has transformed their students' ability to read decodable texts and transition into writing independently.
I appreciate your donations. Your thoughtfulness is truly appreciated and has made a significant impact on the lives of my students. Thank you once again.”

Funded Nov 6, 2018Thank you so very much for your generous donations. My class have been enjoying the markers, pencils and seat sacks. These items have made managing, organizing and completing daily activities blissful. The seat sacks have allowed the students to keep all of their materials, books, pencils, and personal items organized and manageable. They seem to enjoy the idea of having something accessible store their belongings on a daily basis. The students of class 217 are truly thankful and grateful once again for your donations.”
