Scientific Exploration

Funded Feb 2, 2022

I am so grateful for the donations made to my classroom. One of my students favorite things that was donated was the skeleton and body anatomy. My students have loved using these to help them learn about the different body systems and how they work together to keep their bodies functioning. It has been especially helpful for them to see the organs and how they fit together in the systems.

Another donation that has been very beneficial for my students learning was the classroom set of headphones. I have been able to include them in my instructions as students sometimes work at different paces to complete assignments. Having the option for students to use headphones in their learning to view additional resources has allowed me to work with students who may need a little extra time on essential topics while allowing students who are fast finishers to work ahead, and explore new topics with instructional videos, or simulations as they complete them. As I have worked to keep classroom supplies organized and easily accessible to students, I have stored the headphones in the large zipper storage bags that were also donated so tables can gather the supplies they need and they are well taken care of.

These are just a couple of the ways my students have responded to the generous donations made by Donors Choose. The learning that will continue with the donated supplies will be of great benefit to my students and their learning.”

With gratitude,

Ms. Hansen
