Ms. Catropa's Class

Funded Sep 29, 2022

Thank you so much for your generous contribution to our Donors Choose Project! Our classroom received a large easel, alphabet tubs and a math sorting and matching game with the help of your contribution. We were so excited when we saw the new materials. We wanted to open everything immediately.

We are active learners that require lots of hands on activities. The math games and help us to practice identifying shapes and sorting them into groups. Some of us have difficulty with fine motor skills and having magnetic pieces is one way to reduce frustration because the pieces stay where we put them. Each week, we have a new letter of the week and we love exploring the alphabet tubs. We have fun pulling out an object, identifying it and the letter it starts with. Sometimes we even go on a scavenger hunt around the classroom to look for things that start with a specific letter. Lastly, we love using the easel to paint! It is so much easier than trying to hold a piece of paper down on the table with one hand and paint with the other.

We are working hard to become independent learners and it is all in part to your contribution. Thank you again for your support!”

With gratitude,

Ms. Catropa
