  • A Comfy, Bright, & Organized Classroom; Generates Student Learning

    Funded Aug 6, 2021

    Thanks so much! This project was funded through credits that were available on my account, from the overflow of donations I received from my last project. I am overwhelmed with gratitude. I hope this allows my students to be more engaged and organized during classroom time, without the distraction of their phones.”

    With gratitude,

    Ms. Gerardo

    This classroom project was brought to life by Emerson Collective and one other donor.
  • Problem Solving, Beyond Math

    Funded Jul 26, 2021

    I am humbled by the help that I have received, and I hope to repay this, by executing my project with great joy and love for my students. Being a former student of a title 1 school, and a product of a low income household, it is my wish to give back to my community. Thank you for helping me get a step closer in achieving that.

    Mathematics goes beyond numbers. It is the teaching of understanding, problem solving, and persistence. That is what I aim to teach my students, along with the mathematical skills necessary to succeed in the curriculum.”

    With gratitude,

    Ms. Gerardo

Most students remain more engaged in a well structured, and efficient classroom. I want to use the wireless doorbell to aid with classroom transitions, and regaining focus when needed. The "Charging Phone Station" will allow the students to focus on classroom interaction, and allow their phones to "rest" during class time. It is also my wish to provide them with a classroom that is bright and inviting. This will generate alertness in students. The push lights will also help us monitor our voice levels throughout different activities. Our students will only mirror the enviornment that we provide for them; for this reason, we must be intentional with our classroom setting. I hope that this project will generate more focused students, who feel comfortable and ready to learn.
