Step into the FUTURE
Aubrey Rogers High
As the school counseling department, we aim to create immersive and engaging interactions with our students. We believe that implementing innovative tools like virtual reality (VR) will greatly benefit both our students and staff. By sparking students' imagination through VR experiences that make them feel as if they are truly there, we ensure that students remain engaged, motivated, and challenged throughout their high school years. Our goal is to provide both students and staff with new and exciting ways to experience learning, enhancing educational outcomes and promoting personal growth.
Additionally, we hope that this experience will not only deepen the connection between students and their counselors but also enhance relationships among the entire school staff. By fostering new connections across the staff in our visits to classrooms to speak with students, this tool can improve morale and contribute to greater success for our students.

Building Civic Minds: Learning from the Nisei Soldiers’ Legacy
East Naples Middle
The goal of this project is to enhance 7th-grade students' civic education and introduce entrepreneurship concepts by integrating the Nisei soldiers' legacy into the curriculum. By aligning with Florida's civics standards, the project aims to deepen students' understanding of government foundations, citizenship responsibilities, and historical impact while fostering historical empathy and civic engagement. Using Stacey Hayashi's manga and supplementary resources, students will explore the experiences and contributions of the Nisei soldiers, who overcame significant prejudice and poverty to become the most decorated unit in U.S. military history. This engagement will help students draw parallels between their own lives and the stories of these historical figures.
In addition, the project aims to introduce entrepreneurship principles by examining how Nisei soldiers utilized the GI Bill to become influential figures in their communities. This aspect of the curriculum will align with standards related to the role of citizens and the impact of individual contributions. By integrating these elements, the project seeks to provide students with a comprehensive understanding of civic responsibilities and entrepreneurial opportunities, preparing them to overcome their own challenges and make a positive impact in their communities.
Academic Standards:
SS.7.C.1.1: Recognize the different forms of government, including democracy, monarchy, and dictatorship.
SS.7.C.1.2: Trace the impact of the English legal system on the development of the United States government.
SS.7.C.2.1: Define the term 'citizen' and identify legal means of becoming a United States citizen.
SS.7.C.2.2: Evaluate the obligations citizens have to obey laws, pay taxes, defend the nation, and serve on juries.
SS.7.C.2.3: Experience the responsibilities of citizens at the local, state, and federal levels, including voting and community involvement.
SS.7.C.3.12: Analyze the significance and impact of landmark Supreme Court cases, including those related to Japanese American incarceration during WWII, highlighting the impact on civil rights and liberties.

Flexible Minds: Enhancing Learning through Movement
Barron Collier High
The 'Flexible Minds' project is designed to significantly enhance student engagement and academic performance by incorporating increased physical movement opportunities within the classroom. This project aims to create a dynamic and innovative learning environment that accommodates various learning styles and promotes active participation in classroom activities by integrating flexible seating options and under-the-desk elliptical machines.
The inspiration for this project came from a former and current student, who asked, 'Mrs. Sponseller, do you remember when I was in your 3rd-grade class and we had all that movement stuff? Why can’t we have that at high school?'
In 2017, the successful “Just Keep Moving” grant allowed me to purchase movement equipment for my classroom at Laurel Oak Elementary. The student, who was in my class that year, is now at Barron Collier High School, where I support her as an ESE Inclusion Teacher. Her question highlighted the need for movement-friendly classrooms beyond the elementary level, leading to the creation of the 'Active Minds' grant proposal.

Unlocking Stories: Alternative and Augmentative Communication for Comprehensive Communication
Administrative Center - Collier County Public Schools
Many of our schools currently have the Story Champs Narrative Language program, implemented by speech-language pathologists. However, a significant amount of our students have limited or no verbal skills but instead rely on Alternative and Augmentative communication devices as their voice. Our goal is to implement the Story Champs program to enhance narrative skills in preschool and school-age children using augmentative and alternative communication (AAC) devices. This program aims to develop language and comprehension skills, expand the use of AAC for academic and social communication beyond simple requests, improve AAC navigation and general use, teach flexible use of categories like characters, settings, emotions, actions, and modifiers, and foster multi-symbol utterances and complex syntax.

This project aims to create a dynamic and innovative learning environment that accommodates various learning styles and promotes active participation in classroom activities by integrating flexible seating options and under-the-desk elliptical machines.
The inspiration for this project came from a former and current student, who asked, 'Mrs. Sponseller, do you remember when I was in your 3rd-grade class and we had all that movement stuff? Why can’t we have that at high school?'
In 2017, the successful “Just Keep Moving” grant allowed me to purchase movement equipment for my classroom at Laurel Oak Elementary. The student, who was in my class that year, is now at Barron Collier High School, where I support her as an ESE Inclusion Teacher. Her question highlighted the need for movement-friendly classrooms beyond the elementary level, leading to the creation of the 'Active Minds' grant proposal.

The goal of this request is to promote positive job readiness skills while working at assigned job sites. Our students attend the Golden Gate Transition Work Study Program for adults aged 18-22 with special needs. Students work at a variety of job sites in Naples including Paradise Coast Sports Complex, Lely Resort and Spa, Sam Snead's, Goodwill, Fairfield Inn and Suites, Marriott Hotels, and Physician's Regional Hospital. Since these positions are all unpaid positions, we would like to provide an incentive and recognition for our interns. On Fridays, we give awards for students to thank them for their hard work for the week. Some of the awards we have used in the past include Best Team Player, Best Manners, Most Responsible, Best Problem Solver, and Most Assertive.

Still going GAGA over Gaga Ball!
Mike Davis Elementary
To provide a safe, high-quality durable, and easy-to-set-up portable Gaga Ball Pit (and Gaga balls) for the students at Mike Davis Elementary to enjoy during Physical Education classes, Field Day, and recess.
**Champions for learning generously funded our grant for this item last year. We have since found out that the pit was too small to safely fit two classes and have supplemented with mats and such to increase the size. The portable Gaga Ball Pit easily expands by adding additional panels. We are requesting a second portable Gaga Ball Pit to expand our pit to accommodate our daily class size. **

When the 'ROOTS' are strong we learn lifelong
North Naples Middle
To increase students confidence & excitement in learning content area material through motivational strategies, real live experiences, connections and word attack skills to limit resistance and hesitation in understanding new concepts and vocabulary.
I desire to enhance learning by lessening and eliminate learning barriers for all learners that are created by limited English, Limited confidence, limited root word understanding, limited experiences......
This will increase their academic achievement in science and all content areas.
Students will engage with new concepts and vocabulary using word attack using Scientific Root Words, Prefixes, And Suffixes, making connections, engaging in experiences while increasing their motivation to increase their learning and practice with new words.
These extra hands-on experiences, colorful depictions or words, and connections to previous words through intentional study of root words prefixes and suffixes will open opportunities for word attack in science to bring back their confidence in learning difficult scientific words. This will capture English Second language learners, students with disabilities, average and gifted students.
Incentives will encourage their participation and connect effort and attitude with success.
This Extrinsic gratification will initially bring them into the learning and will quickly transform into intrinsic motivation to succeed as they learn more and increase their learning the hard work turns into fun challenge!!
Hard work pays off every time!

Everyday is a Holly-Day!
Vineyards Elementary
Students will be introduced to a pioneer of the “Rock and Roll” movement of the 1950’s. My long-term goal is to introduce a new pioneer of “Rock and Roll” each school year. By the end of the project this year, students will be familiar with the history of the selected musician. They will appreciate that person’s contributions to rock music and other genres. Students will also be exposed to instruments that are physically and aurally similar to instruments used by the selected musician/band. The final lesson of this project allows students to perform a simplified arrangement of one of the musician’s popular songs on the instrument “replicas.”
The musician I have chosen for the 2024-2025 school year will be Buddy Holly. Buddy Holly was included in the first group of inductees to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. He was the first rock performer to utilize and standardize the instrumentation of a lead guitar, rhythm guitar, bass guitar and percussion for rock bands of the 1950’s. Holly was also one of the first performers to experiment with double-tracking/overdubbing. He was a significant contributor to the creation of “popular” music by bridging the gap between blues, country and rock. Additionally, Holly has cemented his place of importance in music history by influencing many subsequent musicians. These include: The Beatles, Bob Dylan, Eddie Van Halen, Eric Clapton, Keith Richards, Pete Townshend, Bruce Springsteen, Elvis Costello and many others.

Students who feel overwhelmed, stressed, or just need a simple coping skill sometimes need an outlet to channel their feelings. Using various fidgets, students would be able to help calm and satisfy their sensory needs therefore being able to go back to learning within the classroom. If each teacher had their own fidget box, they could create a space in their room to be used as needed to help kids. It has been seen to help on-task behavior, support attention, and lower stress levels.

Through this project each language learner will study a successful immigrant who has achieved a professional goal similar to what the student would like to achieve. Over the course of several weeks, students will develop a biography about their 'hero', author their personal story, and then describe goals for their own futures. This grant will provide support materials in the form of biographies and second language learner success guides as well as materials for presentation boards for each student. The culminating activity will be presentations of their boards (My Hero-My Story-My Future) to classmates and invited guests. Research has shown that role models motivate second language learners, especially those with similar life experiences. This project gives high school English Language Learners the opportunity to read and write about those who have walked in similar shoes and have gone on to become leaders in their fields.

Dr. Gomez does the same for 7 high school debate coaches. As the teacher coordinators, they are responsible for all the pairings, setting up the rooms (at a different school location each time), training judges, assigning those judges, and physically running each of the debate rounds. These supplies will not only make their jobs easier, but they will allow the debate tournament process to run more smoothly. A mobile workstation would allow these teachers to quickly move from room to room addressing student, coach, or judging needs as they arise. The workstation would allow for faster tabulation of ballots resulting in quicker results to both coaches and students. The workstation would also hold a small white board for posting judge assignments and announcing room changes.

Sunshine State books are selected for their wide appeal, literary value, varied genres, curriculum connections, and/or multicultural representation. The SSYRA committee is comprised of 20 qualified school librarians located throughout the state of Florida, subdivided into two committees- grades 3-5 and grades 6-8.
Media specialists representing all districts across the state work with integrity and heart to curate great lists each year, with the goal for each and every one of Florida’s students to find three books they want to read and with which they can connect. That’s all it takes for students to vote for their favorites: read at least three and vote. We are especially proud of these lists, knowing they are for our students first and believe that students will find at least three to read this year. We know that not every book is for every student, but we want every student to have the chance to find the book they need, whether it be a window, a mirror, or a door to another world.

Mirrors, Windows, and Sliding Glass Doors: A Collection of Prosocial Picture Books for PreK through 12th Grade Character Education
Seacrest Country Day School - Lower School
Mirrors, Windows, and Sliding Glass Doors: A Collection of Prosocial Picture Books for PreK through 12th Grade Character Education
Books are sometimes windows, offering views of worlds that may be read or imagined, familiar or strange. These windows are also sliding glass doors, and readers have only to walk through in imagination to become part of whatever world has been created or recreated by the author. When lighting conditions are just right, however, a window can also be a mirror…and readers often seek their mirrors in books.
–Rudine Simms Bishop, 1990
Seacrest Country Day School (SCDS) is committed to whole-child education for all students from Prekindergarten through 12th Grade. Because Seacrest educators know that academic learning is contingent on social and emotional well-being, they are intent on integrating supportive interventions that promote the prosocial behavior of all students. The 2024-25 goal for SCDS is to ensure that the entire community from Prekindergarten through 12th Grade becomes well-versed in the intellectual understanding and practical application of the SCDS Core Values of kindness, respect, gratitude, empathy, perseverance, integrity, responsibility, cooperation, curiosity, and creativity. A character trait has been assigned to each month with age-appropriate discussions and learning activities presented at each grade level.
One essential learning activity is the exploration of children’s literature picture books. Although picture books are generally used with very young children, these books are often written with rich, sophisticated language on a myriad of relatable themes that can incite important shared inquiry discussions for students of all ages. Picture books with prosocial themes can serve as “mirrors, windows, and sliding glass doors” for students to view themselves as contributing members of a shared community. This grant request is for a collection of picture books that support the SCDS Core Values Education for students Prekindergarten through 12th Grade.

Increasing Engagement in Our Struggling Readers
North Naples Middle
Increasing engagement in our struggling readers is an on-going problem. Middle school students who are reading below grade-level don't naturally gravitate towards books when they are looking for something fun to do Part of this could be because they don't come from print-rich homes with a variety of options for them to choose from. Another reason could be they are hesitant to select an independent book that their peers may see as 'babyish,' thus embarrassing them. I would like to provide a lending library to each of our three intensive classrooms that contain high-interest books that have lower lexiles, making them easier for struggling readers to read independently. The books will appear to be middle-school level, so students won't be embarrassed. However, they will be within the 3 - 5th grade lexile band making them appropriate for independent reading

Time to Stay Fit
Barron Collier High
The L.I.F.E. (Learning Independent Functional Employment) program is a transition work study opportunity for students with special needs ages 18-22. The vocational program provides multiple hands-on job training opportunities at Royal Poinciana Golf Club and is offered through Barron Collier High School.
One of the goals of this grant is to teach the interns to consistently wear a watch and learn how to independently tell time and manage their daily schedule by determining when to start in their departments, go to lunch, return to their training area, and then sign out for the day. Wearing a watch is a more professional method of telling time compared to using a cell phone and cell phone use is not permitted at the private club where we train.
The second goal of wearing the fitness tracking watch is to help the interns become more aware of their personal fitness and wellness by instructing them on how to count their steps. One of the employee benefits at Royal Poinciana Golf Club is a cash bonus each month as they make their step and fitness goals for at least 10 days out of the month. We would like to offer a similar benefit for our non-paid interns using our program’s token economy.

These are vital skills that students need both in and out of the classroom. Using these quality materials, students will engage and participate in hands-on activities that will help build bilateral coordination, midline awareness, and opposition.

I'm Bored, They're Bored, We All Need New White Boards
Sabal Palm Elementary
The goal is to provide students with interactive dry erase whiteboards. Whiteboards improve learning through increased participation and collaboration among students. They provide an alternate method of learning (visual and auditory). Whiteboards are a tool to manage instruction so that students can construct their own knowledge and understanding from evidence. They are a quick and cost-effective way of assessing students and help in identifying students’ misconceptions. Whiteboards provide insight into the strengths and weaknesses of the class in understanding a particular concept or standard so that scaffolding can be provided.
This grant was originally funded in 2019. One hundred first grade students were given interactive dry erase whiteboards, markers, and erasers! Increased engagement, participation, motivation and collaboration among students was observed when students used the whiteboards during instruction. The whiteboards were used for whole class interactive lessons, reviewing concepts, guided practice, targeted help, small group interactive lessons, one-on-one instruction, and learning centers. Students love learning and writing on whiteboards! With the addition of students to first grade and repeated daily use of the boards, I am asking for funding to purchase new boards and markers.

Teaching Functional Life Skills: Dining Out!
Immokalee High
Teaching Transition students to be independent, self-sufficient and confident is a goal of the P.R.I.D.E. Transition Program at Immokalee High School. P.R.I.D.E., an acronym for our program's motto, means:
I am...
P = Productive
R = Respectful
I = Independent
D = Determined
E = Empowered
I believe learning and skill building can be done so effectively when it's incorporated into everyday life and activities. Can you think of a better way to teach Functional Life Skills than a family meal at your favorite restaurant? The skills used and practiced when dining in a restaurant are great practices for larger, more overarching life skills. Here are some ways a restaurant trip can be great skill practice for my Transition students:
1. Using socially aware behavior
2. Reading menus
3. Using decision-making skills
4. Speaking politely to waitstaff
5. Ordering food independently
6. Self regulation and waiting patiently
7. Using silverware correctly and appropriately

We know that a partnership between school and home will always be the best way to make sure the students of Collier County are ready and able to truly make a difference in our world. We also know that many parents do not feel equipped to do this, either because they are overwhelmed with their responsibilities, do not have experience in taking this active role, or because they themselves had a negative experience is school as a student. We hope to meet those needs through our events, making sure that every parent and family is strengthened and ready to help their student achieve his or her very best.

TIME for PE
Village Oaks Elementary
Telling time on an analog clock can be quite tricky for young students, especially now with the common use of digital clocks. Additionally, academic development Telling Time is a basic math skill that can help students understand more complex concepts like fractions, decimals, and measurements. Elementary students are typically introduced to analog clocks in kindergarten and or first grade, where they learn about the different hands, the numbers on the clock face, and how to read time. Telling time becomes more complex for 2nd and 3rd graders (ages 5-8) as they are introduced to more advanced concepts of time since the base numbering system is 60 instead 10-100. Finally, for the last two years every K-5 team leader asked our Health & Wellness Committee to search for a fun way to help our students learn & better understand the concepts of telling time. To achieve this goal, we are asking you to grant our request to purchase the Math & Movement Clock Hop Floor Mat.

They need to be able to respond to text dependent questions and show a deep understanding of text and be able to make inferences. By providing anchor charts and modelling writing every day and posting these charts around the room gives the student a much needed resource that helps them deepen their learning. I need large wall-size post-it notes and small post-it notes so students can highlight and strengthen their understanding of stories. Our math resource also requires we create interactive anchor charts.
