Help me give my students hands-on, age-appropriate manipulatives to be active learners during their reading, writing, and math centers time! Thank you!
FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Beck's classroom raised $980
This project is fully funded
My Project
My name is Sharon Beck, and I teach two 1/2-day sessions of Kindergarten each day in Tucson, Arizona. I have 24 students in my morning class, and 25 students in my afternoon class.
Kindergarten students benefit most from hands-on learning.
As we all work to overcome the pandemic, I have found, this year, that many more kindergarten students than normal were not able to attend preschool last year. This has given me a unique opportunity to take a closer look at my instruction and how to tailor it best to the needs of my students.
The purpose of this Donors Choose project is to augment my reading and math manipulatives to keep students excited about learning during reading and math instruction. In addition, due to many years of use, my floor puzzles are worn out. I'd love to give my new learners new tools to learn with! On behalf of my students now and those to come, thank you for this opportunity!
More than a third of students from low‑income households
