  • Listening Center Supplies!

    Funded Mar 2, 2022

    Thank you so much for your donation to this project. It truly means the world to me and most importantly my students.

    Because of your donation my students now have a special space in the library for a listening center. This listening center has truly been an overall hit in the classroom. It has motivated students to read along with cd disc. I have definitely seen an increase in my students motivation to read since implementing these materials.

    I again want to thank you for your generous donation! You have made 24 little faces very happy !”

    With gratitude,

  • Flexible Seating for Kindergartners

    Funded Nov 1, 2020

    Thank you so much for your generous donation. Because of your donation we were able to purchase 3 lap desks and 6 comfy cushions for our students. Upon receiving these materials the students were so excited to use these flexible seating options and it truly brought joy to their faces! These flexible seating options have helped maximize my students learning and has helped my students learn while feeling "comfort".

    The students especially love using the flexible seating options during reading and writing time. Having these flexible seating options has also allowed students to feel a sense of choice when it comes to their learning and has allowed independence.

    Thank you for contributing to my classroom because of your donation it has brought a smile to 19 little faces! :)”

    With gratitude,

    Ms. Marks

These flexible seating options will help my students feel a sense of choice when it comes to their learning. During independent work time, students will have the choice as to where they would like to learn in the room. It is my hope that by bringing these materials into the classroom my students will feel comfortable and this will motivate their learning even more. I have noticed the difference it makes when students have the choice for how they would like to learn. The products that I have selected will help my students by giving them additional seating options to make more effective learning choices. These will be extremely beneficial for some students that just need to get the wiggles out. They can also be used as an alternative chair if needed! These items are lightweight and can be easily used in many areas of the classroom. I have seen how choice can positively affect my students' work and demeanor and hope that the additional options will help us grow even more!
