Students are able to use these resources throughout lessons, small group activities and group work with their peers. The laminated sheets have been used throughout the duration of the day for the anchor charts in reading and writing and the students' math toolkits. Visual aids are a vital tool we use for our students with pictures and colors. We are able to print out resources and laminate them to use them continuously to enhance engagement and participation of our students. \r\n\r\n \r\nMany of our students are visual/kinesthetic 'hands-on' learners. With laminated versions of the anchor charts, they are able to refer to them while completing their work. In reading, they are able to answer questions from the stories we read using the skill on the anchor chart. One student in particular has become more engaged during small group reading lessons—using the laminated alphabet chart to sound out words in the story to help increase their comprehension. In math, students can use their laminated number line to solve problems and are able to erase if they make a mistake. When they complete group work, students encourage others to try the problem on their number line. \r\n\r\n \r\nOur students love to express their ideas through pictures and coloring. Your generous donation of crayons allow our students to confidently bring their ideas to life. During the busy sick season, students are able to stay healthy to be able to learn together in the classroom.
