Funded Oct 25, 2021This project has helped students better understand the connection between reading and writing. Students have been excited about their daily Writer's Workshop time and all the learning opportunities that go along with writing.
My amazing first graders have used the Writer's Workshop curriculum to help them develop their creative process! The TPT funds were used to purchase a Writer's Workshop curriculum that made a difference in my students' learning and writing by providing them with a guidance that motivated them to tell their stories.
Each student was excited to receive their own document bags, their personal space to organize all of their ideas and drafts through the writing process.
The dry erase pockets were used by each student to proudly display their writing once ready to publish.
All the materials helped students explore different writing opportunities. Thank you for helping me provide this amazing curriculum from TPT and other writing materials to all of my students. You are amazing!”

Funded Aug 21, 2019Thank you so much for these amazing headphones! Thanks to you students are able to comfortably listen to stories, take assessments, and independently complete math activities. Since you've donated these materials my students have been able to better focus and continue to develop as readers and problem solvers.
Today, students are able to use their iPads more frequently providing them with more time for differentiated instruction. The headphones have help students read at their own pace as they follow along to read aloud stories and and answer differentiated comprehension questions that meet their needs.
Thank you so much!”
