Ms. Simmons’s TPT Goal!

Funded Aug 31, 2024

I am so thankful for each of your donations. This time of year, we focus on how grateful we are to people and how they have impacted our lives. Each of you has impacted my students directly with your donations. I used the money you donated towards the Teachers Pay Teachers gift cards to buy a few necessary resources.

First, I bought a set of fluency passages with comprehension questions to help the children read accurately and answer comprehension questions after reading. The goal is for them to read as many words as possible under 1 minute. The children's fluency has grown significantly! They could not have grown without you!

Secondly, I purchased note-taking, comprehension, and writing resources for the curriculum my school uses Core Knowledge Language Arts. My students had a BLAST taking notes during one of our hardest units, Middle Ages. They were engaged in the reading and actively taking notes during the lesson. We will continue utilizing them during the school year. Their understanding of the curriculum was helped because of you!

Lastly, I bought some resources to supplement our writing and test-taking. I purchased resources to help my students write paragraphs with purpose. I have not used them yet, but I believe their skills will improve, yet again, because of you!

Please remember that you have made a class full of students happy and engaged, and helped them grow into the young learners they are and will become. I hope you all enjoy your holiday season, and find happiness during this time.”

With gratitude,

Ms. Simmons
