This teacher needs your help!

Ms. Parker from Baltimore, MD is requesting books through DonorsChoose, the most trusted classroom funding site for teachers.

Joy in Ms. Parker's Class

Help me give my students headphones, magnetic tiles, a Vocabularious Card Game, and other items for classroom use.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Parker's classroom raised $378

This project is fully funded

My Project

I am requesting these items as my scholars will see positive representations of themselves in literary pieces, engage with various math and ELA manipulatives to connect their learning, and most importantly have joy in our learning space. Scholars will be able to engage with games such as Battleship to make connections with our coordinate plane unit. They will also read books with characters that look like them and have similar experiences. Lastly, scholars will have fun and joy in the classroom, which is just as important to their development as the learning itself.
