  • Lets go STEAM!

    Funded Dec 10, 2022

    We are beyond thrilled about these materials we received! We are an Aerospace school so to get a marble run, rocket ships, puzzles, magnets and more was incredible! I love watching the student work together to create and conquer the marble run!

    They were so excited when the materials arrived. We couldn't wait to open them all!

    We use the materials donated daily! Like I mentioned, we are an Aerospace school so we are always creating, planning, working together with perseverance! It is incredible to see. We are forever thankful for your generous donations!”

    With gratitude,

    Mrs. Mellstrom

    This classroom project was brought to life by 3M and one other donor.
  • Proficent Readers!

    Funded Nov 28, 2022

    Thank you again for your generous donations! I have been able to use your donations daily in class. The TPT give card went to purchases so many consumable decodable books that students can use in class and then be sent home to share with families. The other materials are used daily in small group instruction along with independent work.

    The student love using the phonics phones to hear themselves read!

    When we received the materials the students were so excited! We couldn't wait to dive in and start using them!

    Your donations have been incredible in the development of my students early reading years! We are really focusing on phonemic awareness and phonics. We are building such a strong foundation for our readers to ensure they are knowledgeable and continue to grow into fluent readers.”

  • Mindfulness for All

    Funded Jan 8, 2020

    Thank you so much for your donation! Sorry it has taken me so long to send this out. This was my first donors choose project and happened right before COVID, while I was in the middle of my research project for my masters. These materials were so incredibly important during our distance learning! My students were able to use our mindfulness taught at school and implement at home during distance learning! We were able to meet via google meet and practice mindfulness together!

    Thank you again for providing materials to my students to implement mindfulness during a very stressful and unknown time. These will be lifelong skills for them and myself!”

    With gratitude,

    Mrs. Mellstrom

I will be using the yoga mats and supplies to teach my students Mindfulness to help them self regulate and be more aware of themselves and their learning. We will also be using the rattles as a calming, community building, and focusing activities. We will connect mind, body and soul. These tools will teach learners to focus on their individual strengths to inspire confidence. Mindfulness will meet the needs of all students through reflective, inquiry based practice. Mindfulness develops social/emotional awareness and skills, it promotes relaxation and self regulation. It also fosters physical fitness and character development. These tools will be educating heart, mind and body.
