Tag! We're Reading!!

My Donors Choose project came today!  This is my first project and I was honestly skeptical that it would even get funded because it totaled almost $700.  But in only 5 weeks, my project was posted, supported, funded, shipped and has arrived in my classroom.

I now have 10 Tag Readers that are mine to use this year and with future classes!  I never have to send them back and completing the Thank You packet suggested by Donors Choose has really taught my students how to think of others and be grateful.  I bought the Short and Long Vowel book packs on Amazon {cheaper!} and will begin using them in my guided reading groups this week.  They'll be using them independently in the next few weeks and should be able to partner read...all at the same time!!...by the time we reach Spring Break!

I feel honored to have received such a fantastic technology resource and am blessed by what this will allow me to do.  YOU need to go do the same and list a project for your babies!  There are many vendors and even more resources available.  All you have to do is sign up and create a project.  If you're technologically challenged, don't worry.  They walk you through it. step. by. step.  Once you get your resources, I encourage you to share the love and donate to other teachers...friends, colleagues, blog buddies or great teachers you don't even know.

Go now...Donors Choose is a partner I won't overlook again.
