Uplifted in a Pandemic With fun, Calming, and Engaging Materials

Help me give my students a little bit of fun in this continued pandemic year by providing them with new STEM materials, fun markers, motivational stickers, and a SUPER awesome color changing light for our classroom!

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Mankins's classroom raised $650

This project is fully funded

Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate 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 third grade friends are smart, talented, kind, energetic, and hard working. They absolutely love when movement is incorporated into their learning and work their best when they are able to move as they work. Every day they walk through our classroom door with a smile on their face and excited to learn. They are a wonderful group of students that I get to spend my days with and I enjoy helping them succeed.

My Project

These materials will help my students continue to learn and make a difference in their lives during the Pandemic by providing some much needed materials as well as some fun while learning.

The fun and calming light will be a bright spot in all of our days during quiet time and computer time.

The cute motivational stickers will be an awesome reward for kids on weekly work. The new bright markers will be great for kids to use on weekly assignments. Both will be a bright spot in their days.

Kids will also have more access to STEM materials and be able to build, learn, and grow.
