You've Got Mail!

Help me give my students a connection with REAL mail and earned incentives from their teacher during distance learning.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Baima's classroom raised $336

My Students

My students are first graders in Carlsbad, California. We are a multicultural classroom with so much to share and learn from each other.

In my first grade classroom, we continually explore, inquire, communicate, collaborate, experiment, practice, create, and grow, online!

I am so proud to be a part of their foundation and help inspire these great little minds! They are all so very excited to learn each day and give their best in our classroom community, as well as in the strong school-wide community we have built.

My Project

I want to give my little first graders surprises in the mail! We are currently in distance learning and we need something to look forward to!

Getting a letter in the mail can give me that personal connection with my students that I am craving to create.

Plus, they deserve something fun to come their way and make a difference in the days.

I want to send my students' real mail to let them know I recognize them and their efforts each day online. I will send a small coloring craft and a bookmark in the first shipment. I will also send little STEM activities that can be done with household items to increase their creativity.

My students can also earn more letters from me by collecting their class dojo points that they earn for participation each day. Help me make them smile today!
