Funded Aug 4, 2022Thank you for supporting the Future Leaders of Baltimore project! Because of your donation, we met our goal and was able to purchase all the items listed!
Your generosity has fostered a sense of community learning in our class! The beautiful carpet your donations provided has given students a place to come together. We start our day in a circle on the carpet and have a daily riddle and a self-reflecting question where we take turns sharing and listening.
Students who need more room when they write or struggle with traditional seating enjoy spreading out on the carpet to do their work. It's also been a prime spot for collaborating on class projects.
Our white board is a wonderful addition to the classroom. Students can show their learning and share with the class. Because of the flip mechanism on the board, we use the other side to track the number of days we've been in school and special birthdays!
The learning materials helped students that were without to have what they need to succeed and collaborate with their peers.
We have learned so much this year! From how to model groups, represent three-digit numbers with different models to dissecting lima bean seeds and lilies, our class has explored and experienced so much at school! Our recent data shows we've improved in math by 40% in just 94 days! Next up, students will be exploring the basics of chemistry and physics through the composition of pancakes, creating elephant toothpaste, as well as diving deeper into the place value of numbers within 1,000.
Thank you again for you generosity! It has made a significant difference in the lives and learning of our class!”
With gratitude,
Ms. Franklin
