Impact to My Classroom

# of Students Impacted: 36

Students have increased reading and spelling abilities based on the manipulative magnetic letters provided by the funding of this grant. State STAR scores (state assessement which scores reading and comprehension ability) have increased 50% with my classroom with a lot of credit due to these manipulative tiles which engaged students' learning. We have thoroughly enjoyed using these magnetic tiles.

Original Grant Overview

Goal

Our goal is to have every student in our classes reading on grade level. We believe in our students and know that with their hard work and dedication that this can happen. We are looking for every possible advantage, including the Word Work Magnetic Boards and Tiles. 

 

What will be done with my students

Our county has adopted UFLI Foundations for English Language Arts. Word Work is utilized in UFLI and is done in whole group instruction as well as small group instruction. Word Work involves manipulating letter tiles for reading. Using manipulatives increases the attention span and student engagement, especially for early elementary students learning to read.  

 

Benefits to my students

The benefits for the students will include learning to read words, learning to spell words, and learning to communicate through manipulation of magnetic letter tiles. These tiles will be beneficial for two classes for a total of 36 students and two teachers. Six sets will be required. The total price is $599.94 which includes shipping. 

 

Budget Narrative

Hand2Mind has 6 sets of the Word Work Magnetic Board Tiles for $99.99 per set. I am requesting funds for 6 sets. The total amount for these sets is $599.94.
