  • 3rd Grade Chess Masters

    Funded Sep 4, 2023

    WOW! Thank you for your generous donations. The chess boards have arrived! My students have been able to engage in chess play on 2 occasions thus far. Students who know how to play independently are focus and thinking strategically. Students who are new to chess are learning and being encouraged by classmates. It is great to see quiet students as leaders and teachers.

    In the coming months we will be hosting an in-class tournament. I think the tournament play will foster a stronger sense of community in the classroom. All students working and sharing a common goal!”

    With gratitude,

    Ms. Dawn MILLER

  • Self Management

    Funded Aug 1, 2023

    Thank you for choosing to donate this my Self Management project. The first impact I noticed was in my students growing ability to manage and complete assignments when I set a countdown timer. It helped to keep them focused especially during group time. Often a lot of time would have been wasted as group members talked amongst themselves. Knowing that assignments/projects were due when the timer reached zero helped keep many groups on task.

    The second item, the storage bins, keeps the classroom and student materials organized and in their place. I have used them in the classroom library as well as assigning a bin to each student for their class materials. Since we use tables and not desks the bins are a great place to house student materials.

    Again, thank you for your generous donation.”

  • A Great Place to Learn

    Funded Aug 10, 2023

    Thank you for your generous donation to this project. Through your donation I was able to create a warm and welcoming place for my new 3rd graders. I decorated every bulletin board in the class with the brightly colored "Better than Paper" bulletin board paper. It has brightened up my classroom so much. Also, because of the durability of the bulletin board covers I will no longer have to waste precious time redoing the background paper.

    My former students have stopped by to say hi and have also remarked how much brighter the room is. I am enclosing 2 photos to help demonstrate the difference the paper has made. Same changes lead to huge advancements.”
