From engaging educational activities to differentiated ELA, math, ELD and social studies resources, I have purchased it all with your helpful donation. \r\n\r\nMy students are currently working on improving fact fluency of their multiplication facts. I purchased an amazing resource called \"Skip Counting Songs\" which helps students work on their fact fluency of their multiplication facts by singing to the tune of popular nursery rhymes. My students LOVE singing the skip counting songs and I now hear them singing the songs as they are solving problems which involve multiplication. This resource has been a game changer! \r\n\r\nMy students have also loved another resource I purchased that directly correlates with our ELA curriculum. Our \"Knowledge Notes\" have been an invaluable tool that helps guide our learning as we move through the different lessons in each unit. It allows students of all ability levels to access that materials in a meaningful way. The students refer to their \"Knowledge Notes\" often! \r\n\r\nMy students benefit daily because of the thoughtful donation you made toward our classroom.
