Digital History to Engage My Students!
Funded Jun 17, 2014Thank you very much for donating to my class project for Cicero Kids! The Digital History Lab with the United States is a great tool for my students to explore. They love going to the activities and traveling with the animated models. The Social Studies content is great for preparing them for Third Grade, and Fourth Grade next year!
The online tools work well as a whole class or for individual students to learn more on their own. Again, thank you very much for helping us to have access to the Cicero Kids website!”

Reusable Water Bottles in the Classroom!
Funded May 6, 2014Thank you so much for your generous donations! My students loved doing this project! They made such beautiful reusable bottles for themselves, friends, and teachers in our school. I know this project will help my students be more aware of reducing their carbon footprint. They will be more mindful to use their reusable water bottle at home and in school. They loved making their own decorations with the sharpie markers. The bottles came out great! They will definitely come in handy with the warm weather approaching as well. Drinking water is such an important part of brain function and hydration! Thanks to this project my students are feeling so refreshed!!”
