My Students

Hello everyone! I teach 3rd grade in a Title I Elementary school. My students thrive with hands-on experiences to enhance their learning. My hopes of joining DonorsChoose is to provide my well-deserving students resources essential to whole-brain learning and fueling them with the desire to be life-long learners!

My Project

I am reaching out for some help to fill our classroom treasure box! The students love fun and motivating prizes to keep them going and help them reach their goals! We have "Treasure Box Friday," every week, for the students to turn in tickets that they have earned for things like participating in class, being a role model, being caught in an act of kindness, awesome test score, etc! I find that this is a fun and engaging way to help students do their best at school! The students always look forward to Friday at school for this reason! I am asking for puzzle erasers, which are their favorite and sensory toys to fill our prize box!
