This success is what will encourage them to push themselves farther and to explore new ideas.\r\n\r\nWithout your help, this vast selection of resources would not have been possible.

All of the items have been heavily used for the past few months and will continue to be used frequently.\r\n\r\nMy students were extremely excited when they saw the huge box of Magnatiles! They love using these on Fridays when they have choice time. My students have also enjoyed the materials we use daily like the pointers, handwriting stamp, timer, and bingo chips. \r\n\r\nIn my classroom, I have been focusing on building foundational phonemic awareness skills with my ML students. The bingo chips are a wonderful tool to count sounds and then to encode the word after. Some of my newcomer students have been using the handwriting stamp to practice correct letter formation. I use the timer with all of my small groups and the students like it because it's a great visual with the rainbow to know how much remaining time they have and the ding when group time is over. Both my students and I use the pointers on our ClearTouch board and when we are pointing to things and with word games on the easel. I have given students the stickers for messages that they need at certain times (ex. Be You, Not Them). \r\n\r\nI appreciate you and donors like yourself who support public schools and educators. My students and I are grateful for the tools you provided us.","fullyFundedDate":1725637724903,"projectUrl":"project/beginning-of-the-year-basics/8621058/","projectTitle":"Beginning of the Year Basics","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Cote","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp561096_orig.jpg?crop=2316,2316,x0,y386&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1662488322889","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/561096"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_65314","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":185,"numTeachers":29,"percentFrplEligible":67,"percentAsian":2,"percentBlack":24,"percentWhite":60,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":5,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"K - 4","studentTeacherRatio":"6.4:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"SUBURBAN","ncesMetroType":"SUBURB_MIDSIZE"},"inStateSupporters":74.1,"schoolId":65314,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Cumberland Oxford Canal School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Cumberland Oxford Canal School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/maine/westbrook-school-district/cumberland-oxford-canal-school/65314"}
