  • Math Using Monopoly

    Funded Aug 13, 2022

    With your support, my students are able to engage in playing board games every Friday afternoon. Games help students overall social skills, math skills and critical thinking. It has also allowed my students to engage in real life discussions and problem solving as well as improve focus and attention to detail.

    My students were so excited to see the variety of board games. The majority of my students don't have access to board games at home and so it's their only interaction with games like these.”

  • Help My Fabulous 5th Graders Focus During Independent Learning

    Funded Aug 5, 2022

    With your help, my scholars have been able to improve their focus during independent learning time while they are completing their assignments on computer based learning programs such as iReady and Imagine Learning.

    Your support has helped our class in tremendous ways. My students love having their own personal headphones. Such a small thing can make a huge difference in a student's learning and progress. My students are still recovering from pandemic learning loss and having basic tools such as headphones helps tremendously.”

    Because of your generous donation, my students have made huge gains. My students learn best in a small group and the easel makes small group time that much effective. My students love the easel and look forward when I come to their area to work with them.

    Your help has helped making a challenging school year a little easier. Without you, our days would be just a little more hectic.

    We are gearing for end of the year testing so motivational activities are helping in keeping the students calm and focused on the goal.”

  • Help My 4th Grade Scholars Stay Focused and Handle Stress

    Without you, days in the the classroom would be a little more difficult and your donation has helped to make our days just that much easier.

    Words can't thank you enough.”

  • Help Our Sensory Center

    Funded Mar 4, 2020

    My students and I are more than thrilled that you have funded our project! The sensory center will be put to great use and thank you so much for making this dream a reality. Words cannot express my appreciation for wanting to help the phenomal students in my class reach their highest potential.”

My students currently do not have a sensory center in our classroom. A sensory center would improve my students with disabilities fine motor skills. My students use Play-doh as a fidget to help them remain focused and have never had the opportunity to explore a sensory center. A sensory center would provide students a place to calm down when they are in distress as well as allow them to explore a variety of different textures. My students learn best in a small group and a tabletop easel would improve students' outcomes by improving their ability to focus with having the classwork on the board directly in front of them.
