• Morning STEM Bins

  Funded Aug 9, 2022

  My first grade students and I cannot express our gratitude! We are lucky to have continuous support from the DonorsChoose community, family, and friends. Students look forward to starting the academic filled day with an activity of their choice. The morning STEM bins have been a big hit! The magnetic building sticks have been a fan favorite!

  Students have been making creations and exploring new ideas by collaborating with peers, working on fine-motor skills, and following their imaginations. Again, my students and I thank you for your help!!”

• Caution: First Graders Constructing Letters, Words, and Sentences

  Funded Dec 30, 2021

  Our first grade friends have been busy at work building and construction letters, sentences, and stories. Thanks to your generous donations, students are engaged and working towards our school-wide goal of active reading and writing in the classroom! The hats allow students to put on their "thinking caps" and the vests allow them to build their confidence in writing.

  When the students first saw the construction uniforms, their faces lit up with excitement. Students are asking to write, edit, and add to their writing projects daily! Thank you for supporting my little construction workers!”

• Say It, Tap It, Write It!

  Funded Aug 29, 2021

  I cannot express how thankful I am to have such a wonderful support system on DonorsChoose. My students and I are extremely lucky! When introducing the magnetic whiteboards to my students, they were so excited! They took ownership and pride in their work. Student participation increased and progress was being made. Students now choose to work on phonics and spelling instead of playing with toys at recess. Again, I am happy to say these magnetic whiteboards have made such an impact on my first-grade friends. Best wishes and Happy New Year!”
