Funded Oct 26, 2022Thank you Donors for your help providing the students with the supplies they needed to improve their reading and writing skills. They have been using the highlighters and the sticky notes to read nonfiction texts, find the main idea of chunked pieces of text, and use their note-taking strategies to help improve their comprehension of the text. They have also used the fun mechanical pencils (and their previously taken notes) to begin writing argumentative paragraphs about things like whether or not students should get paid for performance in schools OR if athletes are deserving of multi-million dollar salaries.
When the students saw all the supplies that you were all so kind to help us get, they were incredibly thrilled! They stayed longer to help us open everything and couldn't wait to actually begin using the supplies.
The students are continuing to use all the supplies to write argumentative paragraphs with complex and interesting sentences. Thank you for your generosity.”
With gratitude,
Ms. Perez
