  • Social Emotional Journaling

    Funded Mar 24, 2023

    Thank you so much for your devotion and contribution to this amazing social-emotional project for my scholars! I can't wait for my scholars to discover their voices and use their pens to write down their thoughts and express their emotions towards a particular topic or even just about their day-to-day experiences as a pre-teen.”

    With gratitude,

    Ms. Santelli

  • Read, Baby, Read

    Funded Jul 29, 2021

    Thank you so much for taking the time out to read my proposal and donate to my project for my 6th grade babies. Your generosity means a lot! I can’t wait to provide my scholars with these creative annotation tools to build their comprehension skills and set them up for success!”

    With gratitude,

    Ms. Santelli

    This classroom project was brought to life by Kleenex® Brand and one other donor.
"Read, Baby, Read" is a reading initiative to get our scholars to not only develop the love for reading but also the skills to better comprehend what they're reading. Throughout the year, my scholars will be learning how to "gist" as they read, which is essentially a skill that allow students to annotate while reading and developing a deeper understanding of high-level texts. All of my scholars are entering the school year on different reading levels due to the setbacks of being virtual for a year and half. My goal is for all my students to improve their reading comprehension and show progression in their reading levels. The need and use of the sticky/post-it notes is a part of the "gist" strategy that my scholars will be learning on Day 1 and continuing to practice throughout the school year.
