Hooray! This project is fully funded

Hooray! This project is fully funded

Our class room is located a very low income city in New York state. Our classroom is full of 28 energetic students every day!

Students want to see more than just workbooks, text books and worksheets everyday. At home they are stimulated by video games and the computer. When they come to school many of them are board by the papers we put in front of them every day.

Our students have come to love the games that we make ourselves for them to play. We need regular materials such as card stock, colored index cards, brass fasteners, and ultra fine point markers so that we can write on the materials. We make our own versions of Chutes and Ladders, Rummy, Go Fish as well as adding question cards to games like Sorry, Connect Four, Memory, and Candy Land. Students feel like they are playing the regular game but they must answer questions correctly to get their turn. Most of the time, they don't even seem to realize they are doing Math, Science or English Language Arts! What could be better than helping to engage students? My students would love more games in the classroom and your generous donation will help to keep the good times rollin'!

Thank you so much for considering helping our classroom!
