  • Alexa, How Many Miles Is It to the Moon

    Funded Aug 15, 2018

    Thank you for supporting the future leaders of America. Because my readers are so eager this year, we need technology to support their reading growth. Because our school uses the Accelerated Reading program to measure growth, and show comprehension, we solicited the help of Alexa to help us find the meaning to words we don't know..

    Because of your support, we were able to get an Alexa speaker for our class to share! Everyday day the speaker is used in my class to help them spell difficult words, learn about the weather outside or simply tell us a joke even use Alexa as a math timer to tell us how much more time we have left to complete an assignment. these items is used to further my students educational growth. Thank you for being amazing supporters of education!"”

My students have the biggest imaginations! And a tremendous desire to read. They are very excited to read and enjoy spending every free moment doing so. They have challenged themselves to increase their reading level by at least 2 grade levels. With such drive, the need for more books has become dire! As a third year teacher, I go anywhere and everywhere to find them books to read!
