    Thank you so much for your generous donation! My students have loved reading these stories, plays and texts in our small group reading.

    We have been able to do so much with each Storyworks Magazine and my students are highly engaged! They love the time we spend reading and discussing each story. They also love being able to choose what stories we focus on first.

    I have loved the plays and fictional stories that are included in each issue. We have been able to do multiple readings and improve students' reading fluency and comprehension.

    Again, thank you so much!”

  • Rewarding Academic Achievements

    Funded Mar 30, 2023

    Thank you so much for supporting this project and your generous donation to my students. We have been putting this project to good use.

    My students have so much to learn this year and it has been great to motivate them with classroom prizes and rewards. We use them almost daily but also as a reward when they perform well on a math or reading test.

    We have also used the classroom prizes and incentives as a reward for good behavior. Students have been motivated to receive points so they can "purchase" prizes with their points.

    Thanks again!”

    With gratitude,

    Mrs. Rivera

  • Classroom Essentials

    Funded Apr 19, 2023

    Thank you so much for your generosity and supporting this project. Because of your support, I was able to provided my students with some much needed supplies.

    We use our technology everyday and it has been great to be able to provide my students with their own headphones and mouse. They are able to listen to things that are being read to them. Also, they use their mouse to be able to create different drawings and activities on their computers that would be very difficult to accomplish with just a mousepad.

    Thanks again!”

    With gratitude,

    Mrs. Rivera

Every year our class sizes get bigger and bigger. Our students share many common spaces but have little room for their personal supplies and materials. The student desks have barely enough room for their textbook and the chair storage pocket charts would allow them some personal space. I want to provide my students with some personal space in our crowded classroom. The chair storage pocket charts will help my students stay organized and help them keep some of their personal supplies within arm's reach. A little bit of personal space goes a long way for my students. I want to give them every opportunity to be successful.
