This was one of my most urgent projects and it was filled fast enough that my current students will be able to enjoy this furniture for the rest of the year. \r\n\r\nThese stools were needed at the whiteboard table to make sure I could have the largest group sizes (chairs take up too much space). During testing I can also place students here to spread them out, and this is the place everyone wants to sit!\r\n\r\nWhen the first two chairs arrived students were eager to sit and work one them during their in-class support time (before I could even adjust the table height to accommodate the stools)! \r\n\r\nSmall group instruction has begun with the arrival of the new stools. We are focusing on remediating adding and subtracting decimals with place value chips to represent the regrouping process. These stools are part of what makes the small group table more inviting and sets them up to focus on this limited time.","fullyFundedDate":1788120480276,"projectUrl":"project/pull-up-a-stool-andwork-it-out/10432856/","projectTitle":"Pull Up a Stool andWork It Out!","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Canales","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp9065053_orig.jpg?crop=3024,3024,x0,y0&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1731804541596","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9065053"},{"teacherId":9065053,"projectId":10063306,"letterContent":"Our new whiteboard bean table is everyone's favorite place to be! During tests, all the students want to work there. And they are actually excited to come to small group instruction there.\r\n\r\nStudents are not limited in space with the new table. Recently with adding and subtracting decimals, several students needed to revisit the tool of place value charts to represent regrouping. The table allowed them the space to connect the visual aid to their problem in vertical form. It is also easier for me to intervene without crowding their work on the table. The table enables so much collaboration.\r\n\r\nThe whiteboard easel also has transformed the classroom. Wall space is hard to come by, and students refer to our anchor charts based there frequently as needed. Unexpectedly I've also noticed some students like to work on the internal shelf of easel while sitting on the rug, so it has provided some additional flexible seating!\r\n\r\nThank you for giving my hard-working students tools that inspire them to try their best. As of our second math test this year, 88% of my 50 students have shown full growth from the 4th Grade STAAR.","fullyFundedDate":1778222493132,"projectUrl":"project/wheels-whiteboards-and-aha-moments/10063306/","projectTitle":"Wheels, Whiteboards, and “Aha!” Moments","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Canales","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp9065053_orig.jpg?crop=3024,3024,x0,y0&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1731804541596","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9065053"},{"teacherId":9065053,"projectId":9520382,"letterContent":"I will never forget the day that the clipboards arrived. I had received a call from the nurse reminding me that our class' schedule vision and hearing test time was that morning. My college teaching mentee and I rushed to unpack the clipboards so students could continue to work on their order of operations worksheets! \r\n\r\nAs students finished, the clipboards helped them move around to check and compare their answers with each other. I got to watch them utilize the tool to analyze their work and helped them share and discuss their work. No instructional time was lost!\r\n\r\nSince then, students have had the freedom to grab a clipboard whenever they wanted. Some really love working on the floor. Others like to use them at their desks as they test or to sit back more comfortably as they work on a color-by-number mystery picture worksheet to work more neatly.\r\n\r\nThe sticky notes have also opened up active learning opportunities. One of my favorite is for students to jot their answers and go in gallery walks. They get to see others' responses and reflect on their knowledge. While sticky notes have turned out to be a risky supply this year (ceiling darts), their power is their versatility. This year we used them to introduce fraction partitioning to add and subtract unlike denominators!","fullyFundedDate":1758043060168,"projectUrl":"project/bustin-a-math-move/9520382/","projectTitle":"Bustin' a Math Move","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Canales","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp9065053_orig.jpg?crop=3024,3024,x0,y0&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1731804541596","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9065053"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_16776","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":514,"numTeachers":41,"percentFrplEligible":94,"percentAsian":0,"percentBlack":13,"percentWhite":12,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":71,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","percentHawaiianImputed":0,"percentMultiracialImputed":1,"gradesServed":"5 - 6","studentTeacherRatio":"12.5:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"URBAN","ncesMetroType":"CITY_MIDSIZE"},"inStateSupporters":67.6,"schoolId":16776,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Travis Intermediate School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Travis Intermediate School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/texas/conroe-independent-school-district/travis-intermediate-school/16776"}
