Everyone Pick a Spot!
Funded Oct 8, 2024My new carpet has been fully funded and I just can't express enough gratitude! With 30 spots on the carpet, I can ensure that all young students will have a place to sit and they can find it quickly. We have several important times of the day where learning happens at the carpet, and what a gift to have a lovely place to do it! Thank you so very much, and I can't wait to put this beautiful carpet to use!”

Help Students Travel Through Time!
Funded Oct 11, 2023I'm writing to update you on the impact of your generous donation to my classroom project! Students have been thoroughly enjoying the Magic Tree House books in small groups across all three 2nd grade classrooms here at West Powellhurst Elementary in Portland, OR!
First, students sit with their buddy and take turns reading the chapter aloud. Then, they discuss and answer comprehension questions in their packets which often requires them to go back to the text. At the end they discuss their favorite part of the book, favorite character and they rate the book as well.
Students always enjoy the adventurous storyline of this book series! The content covers subjects such as dinosaurs, ancient Egypt, the Ice Age and the Amazon rainforest. This is often their first experience reading a book series, and they start to notice words and themes that repeat throughout. These books are wonderfully aligned with their reading level and capture their engagement!
So, with sincerest appreciation, I thank you for your donation and making this possible for so many students!”
With gratitude,
Ms. Long
