  • Rainbow of Possibilities

    Funded Sep 22, 2022

    Thank you so much for allowing me to provide rich and engaging materials suited for my students! I know I will be able to print, laminate and cut many engaging resources for the students to learn from. The pillows I ordered are for a “calming corner” which will be a great benefit to my classroom!”

    I can't believe my 1st project is fully funded!! I am beyond excited to bring these much needed hands-on resources to my students! I know the students' eyes will light up when they see them!

    This classroom project was brought to life by Bill Gates and 6 other donors.
Currently, my students are in the Elementary School. In the past, I taught in Middle School. My younger students require more hands-on resources, structure and organization. My remarkable youngsters come to me with various learning disabilities. They are from a very low income area. Many of them have very hard lives and despite the obstacles that they have to face on a daily basis, they still manage to come to school with smiling faces. They come to school eager to learn and full of life. They are happy with the simple things and are grateful to have the little bit that they do. They enjoy coming to into my classroom as it is a cheerful environment. My students feel happy and safe which allows them to freely express themselves. They are free to use toys or art to enhance their learning and understanding of basic concepts. The supplies that they use are unique in that they allow learning through multiple modalities.
