Because of your generosity, I have already been able to purchase several teacher created resources from TeachersPayTeachers and there are still funds left for future purchases. \r\n\r\nThe resources I have purchased so far have helped to make reading more fun and engaging for my students. I was able to purchase monthly reading journals where students practice their reading fluency using passages that are engaging and relevant. I was also able to purchase resources that will allow my multilingual students to practice their literacy skills and track their progress in each language domain. \r\n\r\nThe amazing thing is that I still have funds available on the TeachersPayTeachers gift card! With the remaining funds I plan to purchase supplemental materials for our next reading unit on animal classification. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for your donation and support!

Whether we are working through math problems, exploring digital books, or engaging in collaborative activities, the SMART Board allows every child to participate more actively and confidently.\r\n\r\nThis technology has especially benefited my diverse group of learners, including multilingual students and those with unique learning needs, by giving them visual and interactive access to lessons in a way that supports different learning styles.
