Blasting Off to an Amazing Year
Funded Oct 26, 2021This school year has been memorable for everyone in my third grade class. This is my first year teaching at Clyde C. Cox. As for the students, it is their first year being fully back to school since the pandemic. I originally reached out because I wanted to do everything that I could to bring in resources that would help my students.
The donated items have made an impact on student engagement and academic progress. Since the students received their headphones with a built in microphone they are able to read aloud while being monitored with programs like Map Growth. Without the headphones students would not have been able to take the initial placement test. In addition, I was able to assign activities and books based on their lexile level. I have noticed that students are more engaged, I strongly believe because students are able to work within their level.
The next item that made a huge impact in my classroom are the flexible seating stools. I use them everyday during small group. When I pull students for small groups they look forward to sitting on the stools. Students love that they can have some mobility while they work.”
