The kids grew so frustrated with our previous board situation because the tiles never stuck and we were missing a bunch of tiles. \r\n\r\nNow the kiddos have everything they need to successfully build words, practice their decoding and encoding, and have fun while doing it. The students use their built in Elkonin boxes to sound out the words, then they can use their built sound tiles to find the letters that match the sound. \r\n\r\nMy students affectionately ask if they will get to use their \"laptops\" today during the lesson because they feel so fancy and cool while using them. Thank you for bringing fun back into phonics and helping my emergent readers become fluent readers.","fullyFundedDate":1759683997344,"projectUrl":"project/make-phonics-fun/9787908/","projectTitle":"Make Phonics Fun","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Robstad","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp2773038_orig.jpg?crop=1:1,smart&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1754830967792","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/2773038"},{"teacherId":2773038,"projectId":9473450,"letterContent":"Filling our supply closet has had such an enormous impact on my kiddos. We were able to start the year with a classroom filled with all the supplies we needed. \r\n\r\nSome our the supplies we've used the most are printer ink, lamination sheets, and alphabet puzzles. These every day items have been used to create a bright and print rich classroom, games and activities that meet my students specific learning needs, and help reinforce their foundational learning skills. Everyone comes to my room to print things in color for the classes from posters to run for student body president to pictures for projects - your ink has touched almost every classroom in our building. \r\n\r\nIn the featured pictures you'll get a sneak peek of my kiddos using the resources and how the ink gets put to good use on a daily basis.

I use my printer every single day to print out books, anchor charts, games, and other educational activities. I even use the ink and card stock to create posters for fundraisers and food drives. These little boxes of ink have made my classroom so bright that one child said our room looks like a rainbow and it is her happy place. Color ink is the gift that keeps on giving.\r\n\r\nThere is something about a colorful image that really captures people's attention and makes things memorable. But my favorite use for the color ink and card stock occurred when a student of mine was starting a dog walking business in their apartment building. They waited around after reading group and said they had a question to ask me - they wanted to know if I could print out a flyer they made to advertise their dog walking services, so they could help earn some money for their family. His dad was ok with it, so with the color printer we made the coolest looking dog walker poster filled with color and his information. The best part is that he is currently walking several dogs in his building regularly - all because of some ink. \r\n\r\nSo thank you so much for your gift. It is used every single day to make learning fun and colorful. It is also used to make my job a lot easier because I have a consistent supply of ink and most importantly it helps my children in a multitude of ways. We are filled with thanks!","fullyFundedDate":1738004643331,"projectUrl":"project/ink-makes-our-classroom-colorful/9068370/","projectTitle":"Ink Makes Our Classroom Colorful!","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Robstad","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp2773038_orig.jpg?crop=1:1,smart&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1754830967792","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/2773038"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_23408","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":470,"numTeachers":47,"percentFrplEligible":95,"percentAsian":0,"percentBlack":43,"percentWhite":10,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":44,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"K - 8","studentTeacherRatio":"10.0:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"SUBURBAN","ncesMetroType":"SUBURB_LARGE"},"inStateSupporters":75.8,"schoolId":23408,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Lincoln Elementary School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Lincoln Elementary School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/new-york/mount-vernon-city-school-district/lincoln-elementary-school/23408"}
