Differentiation for Success!

Help me give my students gift cards to Teachers Pay Teachers, in order to help differentiate instruction!

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Ostenberg's classroom raised $275

My Students

My wonderful first grade class is filled with energetic and enthusiastic learners! My class is made up of twenty 6- to 7-year-old children who are ready to come to school and be the best learners they can be. My students come from many backgrounds and represent many cultures. Most of my students receive reduced-price lunch.

Our school is an amazing STEM school where we teach our students to be innovative, persistent, and creative learners.

I’ve found that because my students are different kinds of learners, they like to learn in different kinds of ways. Differentiation of learning is key for my students to be as successful as they can be!

My Project

By donating towards Teachers Pay Teachers gift cards, I will be able to provide my students with materials that differentiate the content and support each student individually! My students learn differently, and it is my job to provide for their specific needs and learning goals.

Differentiation is key for personalized learning success!

I have a variety of learners, and they are all at such different levels, partially due to the pandemic. By being able to pick and choose different resources from Teachers Pay Teachers, I will be able to support each of my students.
