Creating-Confident-Learners/ Paper-to-Possibilities

Help me give my students the essential supplies which equip them for and inspire learning, support hands-on lessons, and give every third-grade student the tools needed to succeed every day. Thank you for your generosity! Respectfully, Vivian Ryals

Ms. Ryals Ward Elementary School

Winston Salem, NC Grades 3-5

My Project

As a result of my students being curious, resilient, and eager to learn, they deserve engaging, high-quality materials that shall help them engage within the upcoming projects and succeed academically. Ink, copy paper, gel pens, erasers, dry-erase boards, markers, highlighters, magnetic erasers, and laminating pouches will allow me to create extremely colorful learning resources, provide daily hands-on practice, give immediate feedback, preserve reusable activities, and keep every child actively engaged along the way. These essential supplies will strengthen instruction, build confidence, and help my students reach their fullest academic potential.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
