My Project

I teach a variety of Learning Support students in a Title 1 school ranging from grades K-5. Many of my students come to me to work on reading. My third, fourth, and fifth graders have been working on writing Text Dependent Analysis' (TDAs).

Many of my students have progress monitoring goals on TDAs but we need more resources to help them practice this skill.

We are looking to get a DonorsChoose Gift Card to help us add to our collection of TDA passages and writing prompts. As a result, my students will gain additional practice and will get better at this skill.

The gift card can be used to buy additional resources in the Learning Support classroom as needed (such as but not limited to decodable readers, phonics practice, fluency practice, math practice, social/emotional lessons, and writing resources).

Thank you for taking the time to consider helping out our classroom. We appreciate your support for education as well as Special Education.
