• Joyful Math: Hands-On Learning for Critical Thinkers

  Funded Feb 14, 2025

  Thank you so much for your generous support! The hands-on math materials you helped fund are already making a difference in our classroom. Tools like place value discs, geoboards, and architecture blocks are bringing math to life for my students—helping them grasp abstract concepts through concrete exploration. These resources are especially impactful for my diverse group of learners, many of whom thrive with tactile, visual experiences. With your help, we're building not only strong number sense and problem-solving skills, but also a joyful, confident approach to math. We are so grateful!”

  Thank you for supporting our newest and very eager learners! The books, journals, sound tubs and motivational prizes are engaging and hands-on.

• Hands-on Wooden Math Supplies for Elementary

  Funded Nov 28, 2022

  As a math and literacy coach I work with many teachers on strategies to support student learning. One of my favorite parts is going into classrooms and working with students and teachers during math activities. The supplies for this proposal support our Counting Collections activities school wide. They are part of a shared library of resources so that many students and teachers have access to them. Through organizing, grouping, counting and recording these many collections our students are developing foundational math skills that support understanding of base ten and problem solving. It's not only effective but it's exciting! All students have the opportunity to be teachers and leaders in this type of activity.

  Thank you again for supporting high quality, research based instruction in mathematics!”

• Math Collaborations Develop Foundational Skills and Bring Joy!

  Funded Sep 20, 2022

  As our school embarks on a journey to bring more student centered activities to math instruction, we find that hands-on activities are essential. Math manipulatives and math stories create contexts that scaffold students' conceptual development. They are learning about numbers and number relations through problem solving. They share their ideas and strategies as their teacher facilitates these opportunities. When a new collection arrives in the classroom, the students literally shout with excitement. They can't wait to collaborate, plan and count these new collections. We have seen impressive growth in number sense through these activities. Our students are loving math! Thank you!”

• Become a Better Reader Through...Reading!

  Funded Feb 7, 2022

  Thank you for supporting this literacy proposal. I work with students that need extra support to accelerate, catch up and succeed. It's important to have age appropriate books and learning materials so that they can engage and have a positive self-image of themselves as learners. The books in this proposal connect to themes they are studying in their homerooms and have vibrant pictures, text and content. They enjoy reading them and relating these books to what they are learning in class. This proposal also includes many hands-on phonics activities. Phonics is the foundation for reading and learning recognize word patterns is a skill that will help them access more challenging grade level books. Thank you again for believing in my students!”
