  • Creativity & Practice is Essential to Learning

    Funded Feb 12, 2022

    My students have been utilizing all materials you helped fund. The headphones, star student, "All About ME" posters, and scratch-paper art have been supporting my students learning. Students have been listening to I-Ready lessons clearly with the new headphones. All my students have shown excitement when they are chosen as "Student of the Week" by filling out their own personal posters. The scratch-paper art have allowed students to learn about Gravity. They have been drawing things that they have tested that are attracted by gravity. The magnetic trays have helped me store dry erase boards for students.

    All these useful materials have been extremely helpful to my students by assisting them in having positive learning experiences. Most importantly, my students performance in class have been improving significantly, academically and behaviorally.”

  • Amazon - Fire HD 8 - 8'- Tablets in Class!

    Funded Sep 23, 2019

    My students have been working on their i-Ready reading and math lessons on-line. They have been improving steadily and successfully. Thanks again for these wonderful tablets. My students have been using them daily. They enjoy having them to themselves for the time they use them. Usually, students work on them for an hour every day. By now, they are very familiar navigating the internet with them. They know how to find i-Ready, reading and math practices, quickly, and complete all necessary lessons. The past 2 1/2 school years have been very productive with these tablets.

    Once again, thank you for your generousity. My students and I appreciate it very much.”

    With gratitude,

    Ms. G. Zapata

I have a first grade, inclusion class, filled with energetic, curious, and excited students. I have 18 students, 9 girls and 9 boys. Eight of my students are ELL (English Learner of Other Language), two level 4, one Level 2, and five level 1. Three of my students are in SPED (Special Education), all with their IEP (Individual Education Plan) and with different needs. The other eight students have different strengths and weaknesses. My students would benefit from having more classroom materials by enhancing their learning experience.
