Magnetic Learning for My Students Who are Back in School!

Help me give my students amazing interactive tools for a variety of subjects for in-person learning on a magnetic easel.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Kerr's classroom raised $300

This project is fully funded

My Students

I teach in a large, urban school. Our student population hails from countries all over the world. Many of our families are low-income and live below the poverty line. All students in our building receive free breakfast and lunch every day.

My students work hard to overcome the challenges in their lives.

Despite numerous financial and academic challenges, my students are all loving, caring people who are determined to grow and learn!

My Project

These interactive magnetic tools will allow my students to engage in fun lessons whether it be in reading, writing, or math for in-person learning. The children are so excited to be back and these fabulous visuals will provide a better learning experience for them.

My students love to be involved with the lesson and these tools will allow them to be active and manipulate the numbers/letters to create problems and sentences.

Your generous donations will enhance our classroom as we only have a chalkboard at this time. Having another way to introduce new material will prove to make our lessons that much more interesting.
