  • Empowering Readers: Building Confidence with Decodable Texts

    Funded Dec 31, 2024

    Thank you so much for funding our project! Your generosity will provide my English Language Learners, especially newcomers, with decodable texts to build their confidence and literacy skills. These resources are essential for their success in learning to read and thrive in a new language. You’re truly making a difference!”

    With gratitude,

    Ms. Ayala

  • Providing My Newcomers Real Time Native Language Translation

    Funded Nov 2, 2023

    We express our gratitude to the donors for their generous contribution of instant translation headphones. These headphones have greatly benefited one of our Portuguese-speaking newcomer students in the classroom, enabling them to comprehend important aspects of the day such as read alouds, morning meeting messages, math, and phonics. By listening to live translations in their native language, they have been able to utilize their first language to aid in the learning of their second language. As a result, our student has shown remarkable progress and has significantly improved their language skills, which would not have been possible without your kind donations.”

    With gratitude,

    Ms. Ayala

    This classroom project was brought to life by The Allstate Foundation and 3 other donors.
