  • Little Ears Listening Center

    Funded Apr 5, 2015

    A few months ago you made a donation to my listening ears project. Your generosity has allowed my class to listen to books read aloud in English and Spanish. We received MP3 players and have used them by adding recordings of books. The children smile with delight when they hear a familiar voice reading a classic story. Once they become readers, they will be able to record their voices!

    I am sure that you remember listening to your favorite story over and over again. Now, the children in my classroom can have that same experience. Thank you.”

    With gratitude,

    Ms. Menendez

  • Kindergarten Explorers!

    Funded Feb 17, 2015

    Thank you for supporting my project and helping my students become scientists. My students were so excited when we received the books and supplies for our Kindergarten Explorers unit. We received magnets, rocks, plastic toys, metal scraps and a variety of books about the different properties.

    Each student chose a property to become an expert in. The options were rocks, metal, plastic, wood and fabric. In their small groups they conducted experiments with the materials and conducted research. They discovered what materials float and sink. They experimented with magnets. They read about how plastic is made, about different kinds of rocks and how lamb's wool can me made into clothing!

    Thank you for helping us make these discoveries!”

    With gratitude,

    Ms. Menendez

    This classroom project was brought to life by Perry and Donna Golkin Family Foundation and 6 other donors.
My school is a dual-language, child-centered school. At my school, we believe speaking more than one language is an asset. I teach in English and Spanish and give the children hands-on experiences to help them develop academic language. My classroom has children who come from Spanish speaking homes and children who are learning Spanish.
