Today is the third day of New Teacher Orientation for my new district. I have been listening, learning, and absorbing all kinds of new knowledge. While I've been trying to focus on all of the information, my brain has occasionally slipped off to my classroom and lesson plans for next year (which is only 3 & 1/2 weeks away!). I have a notebook partially full of doodles, notes, and ideas on everything ranging from literacy and math stations to room arrangement and supply needs...and new teacher orientation information, of course! While coming up with ideas for my kindergartners I thought of a need we have in our classroom and a fantastic resource that has helped meet my students' needs before. I LOVE DONORS CHOOSE!
Have you heard of it?! If you are a teacher, it will become one of your favorite resources for helping your classroom. I created a Donors Choose profile a few years ago and have decided to post a new project for my kindergarten kid-o's! If you are interested in helping out our classroom, know someone who might be, or are just curious about why I'm so excited, click my project link here: Ms. Scrivner's Donors Choose Project . For the next 6 days (until July 30) the donors choose team will match every donation given to our project $1 for $1--that's a double donation!!! Just enter the word INSPIRE at checkout to have your donation doubled. Thank you for your help. Please spread the word and I'll do the same for you when you try it!
