Games to Help Improve Learning!

Help me give my students help improve learning in classroom settings through fun educational games.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Collins's classroom raised $458

My Project

My second graders are eager children who love learning…what better way to practice what they have learned then through games. More than 95% of my students are either low-income, foster care or living in a shelter. My students deserve a great education filled with fun learning games.

Please help my students enhance their learning with new and fun educational games.

Kids learn through games and other hands-on activities. The magnetic letters, sight words flash cards, word building and phonics games will help them achieve. Learning happens when they're having fun, sometimes without them ever realizing it.
