Headphone Happiness and Keeping Memories in a Cup
Funded Jan 22, 2024Your donation of headphones has made a big difference in my students' academic growth. Research shows that educational programs such as iReady, Imagine Learning, and MyOn are are linked to student achievement. Having your head phones has allowed all of my students to have access to these. By year's end, the students have increased at least one grade level on iReady Math. We even won an IXL contest!
Prior to your donation, many students did not have their own headphones. And, many of the ones they had didn't operate properly.
The children like the black sleek color and think they look cool!
Thank you so much for your generosity.”

Reading With Dr. Seuss
Funded Dec 19, 2023Third grade for many students struggling with reading is very challenging. Their promotion to the next grade is based on a final state assessment. The curriculum consists, mostly, of informational text. Many times the topics are not of interest to young children.
The Dr. Seuss books where instrumental in creating a frenzy of excitement for reading. The children were overjoyed!
One of the benchmarks students must meet is identifying rhyming words and rhyme scheme. To reach this goal, students worked collaboratively to find
rhymes. Additionally, "buddy reading" became an exciting time in our classroom!
One of my students, who was unable to read grade level material, was able to read GREEN EGGS AND HAM on his own. He ran up to me to asked where I had gotten the books.
Thank you so much for being instrumental in my students' success.
These Dr. Seuss books will impact children for many years to come!”
