Help me give my students math and reading games along with a place to store their books.
FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Putnam's classroom raised $799
This project is fully funded
Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month
This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because
it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.
My Students
My students live in a very small town with a population of approximately 2,000 people. We are nestled in the Rocky Mountains and enjoy beautiful views and are surrounded by wildlife. We are hours away from big city life and enjoy life in a simple way.
My students love a challenge, setting goals, and learning how to work together to achieve them.
The students I work with are talented, hardworking, team players, and love learning. I work with a variety of students, including high needs, autistic students learning how to be in the general education setting, and students who are gifted in regards to academics. I have students from many socio-economic backgrounds and coming from homes with different family situations.
This range of diverse students and personalities makes our learning environment a great place to grow from one another's experiences and the students all have different experiences they bring to our classroom. My students are incredible at whatever they set their minds to and surprise me every day with how much they accomplish.
My Project
These materials will help stock our classroom with classroom games, and help our classroom have more chances to engage in learning through play.
Learning through play will engage students, increase classroom morale, create a culture of working together, and foster students communicating with one another in productive ways.
Board games teach children lifelong skills such as teamwork, rule-following, turn-taking, patience, respect, and great communication skills. It would be a wonderful opportunity to have students have resources that they are able to use with peers to have fun while learning valuable reading and mathematical skills they need to succeed. We are asking for a set of math games, and reading games, this will help them practice the skills that they are learning while working with their classmates and having fun. Thank you for your time!
More than a third of students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
