We use a program called Flocabulary, and each lesson starts with a video. Now that each of my students has a set of working headphones, they can all access the video and watch it independently on their Chromebooks without the sound disturbing other students working. \r\n\r\nMany of our reading programs also have text to speech, which gives students access to the content by allowing the passages to be read aloud. This supports their learning of the content, and also builds fluency since they can listen and track the words they are reading. My students also take math assessments online, and they have the option of having the questions read aloud to them. \r\n\r\nWe are grateful for the supply of folders, which allow my students to keep their schoolwork and worksheets properly organized. Thank you so much for supplying my students with the tools we needed.","fullyFundedDate":1756731484735,"projectUrl":"project/sound-rocks/9589869/","projectTitle":"Sound Rocks!","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Krovoza","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp2431867_orig.jpg?crop=1144,1144,x811,y152&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1598685966410","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/mrs-krovoza"},{"teacherId":2114010,"projectId":9774540,"letterContent":"My Kindergarten students are loving these wonderful new supplies!

We have a very breezy room that we are thankful for, but causes our papers to fly around the room. Now students can use the clipboards to hold their assignments down and to bring with them as they move around. \r\n\r\nThe highlighters and pens will be used soon as we start to use them for finding text evidence and to learn several important standards this year.

Math is often students least favorite subject. In many cases, this is due to a lack of really understanding what is happening when we solve math problems. For division we usually hear things like \"how many 2s can fit into 18?\" this is really abstract for students. The math stackers make it SO easy for students to see what we mean and be successful in finding the answer to 18/2. It also really helps students see when we have a remainder in division and understanding why we call it a remainder. \r\nWhile I've shared a lot about how helpful the math stackers are for division, they are useful for many other concepts. We have used them for decomposing numbers into smaller chunks to help make multiplication with larger numbers more managable. I am really looking forward to doing a future lesson on prime and composite numbers using the math stackers as I know it will \"click\" a lot more with students using this manipulative.
