Learning Is Required
Funded Jan 30, 2024My scholars have loved these materials! We have done two projects so far with the materials donated to my classroom.
The first project is the one pictured where we used the white papers to create a graffiti board. Students were asked to get in groups of four, where each student had to write, scaffold, and solve for the problem. They used markers, the white boards, and the tape that was donated to hang up the posters. I did have some scholars use the mechanicals pencils instead of the markers. This was a very fun and different way to implement the content.
We have also used the glue, tape, pens, and of course the pencil sharpener on a everyday basis. To all that donated, we can not say thank you enough!”

This classroom project was brought to life by Optimum.This is Snack-tastic!
Funded Jan 4, 2024We have been so appreciative of the donation. I have put the donations in my treasure box for my WIN class to motivate students to gain at least 7 Lexia units, and the scholars have achieved not only 7 units, but have doubled and tripled the expectation.
The scholars questioned the big box as it arrived, but then understood what they needed to do in order to get a snack. I wanted to set this goal because many scholars need that extra push and motivation. The scholars have defiantly overachieved and I could not be prouder!
I do have scholars come to me at the end of the day asking for a snack for the ride home and of course I provide. I do remind the scholars when they thank me to say a thank you to ones that donated. If it had not have been for you all, then this donation would have never been made possible and we are forever grateful!”

Classroom Materials
Funded Sep 25, 2023My 6th Grade students love the materials we received! We got to use the two games that were included and the students went crazy with it. I even had one students say "I didn't know math could be this fun!"
I put the two posters up on the wall and I have had several students say that when they look in the mirror and see the everyone belongs poster beside it, it makes them feel safe and wanted. I just want to say how blessed we are to have received these supplies because it is making my students want to be in the math class.”

Funded Sep 28, 2023We received the donated headphones on October 3rd, 2023. My students were so eager to know what was in the big box that arrived to Mrs. Young's room. When I opened the box, the room filled with joy.
Since receiving the headphones, I have had an increase of scholars completing their work. Scholars have been using the headphones for content websites such as Prodigy, Lexia, Dreambox, 99 math, and much more. Scholars have increased their productivity on these websites because they are able to listen to text to speech on each website. We are so thankful to everyone that donated!”
