Essential Materials Make a Difference

Help me give my students activity materials and chair storage pockets to store their materials.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Taylor's classroom raised $236

My Project

Chair storage pockets are essentially good for helping students keep their materials stored neatly in a safe place.

They keep supplies in one place, which will allow my students to store pencils, notebooks, folders, and other materials right at their seats.

This reduces desk clutter because items are stored behind the chair, leaving desks clear for writing and other tasks. Chair pockets will also save time by allowing my students to spend less time searching for materials or going to cubbies, which can maximize instructional time.

Game-based learning adds fun to reading, motivating students who may otherwise be reluctant readers. It can target specific skills like sight words, phonics, comprehension, and vocabulary, helps develop communication and cooperative learning, and can be tailored to different reading levels, allowing my students to work at their own pace and ability.

Auditory Reading Phones (Whisper Phones) will help my students hear themselves as they read aloud, supporting fluency and phonemic awareness. When students hear themselves more clearly, they can notice and fix errors on their own. Using these tools together will support a multi-sensory, differentiated approach to reading instruction, which will be beneficial for all my students, especially those with learning differences.
