My Project

After visiting the Ron Clark Academy a couple of years ago (thanks to DonorsChoose.org), I learned some new and engaging teaching methods to motivate my second grade students. One of my biggest takeaways was learning about room transformations. Room transformations we have completed this year are: a glow room in math and to review, a safari room when learning about animals, nonfiction text feature surgery, adjective fashion show, a camping room, a construction room for measurement, and a fraction pizzeria. These transformations incorporate the state standards in all subject areas with fun-filled activities to make learning fun and students are completely engaged in their learning.

The students love these lessons, but to teach them, I need to replenish some of the materials each year to continue the activities.

I need more disposable gloves for the students to wear for text feature surgery. For the Glow Room, I am requesting more glow sticks and glow slime. I am requesting pencils that look like twigs for the camping transformation. The red carpet is for the adjectives runway fashion show we do. The animal erasers are for the safari room.

Keeping my students engaged in their learning is extremely important to me. It makes a huge difference to our classroom culture when students are excited about their learning and look forward to participating in activities each day. Thank you for considering helping my students to get these new items for our classroom!
