Wow. I am truly speechless and full of gratitude right now.
On February 5th I started a project through Donors Choose to raise money to get iPads for my classroom. Donors Choose is a platform for educators to use to raise funds for classroom supplies and necessities that they cannot afford themselves.
My goal for this project was to have a more effective and efficient way for 1st graders to utilize online resources through different learning platforms. This helps to really enhance their learning and knowledge gains in each subject area, which leads them towards mastery of 1st grade skills.
Just over a month after starting this project, it was fully funded. It is because of the generous donations I received from friends, family, businesses around town, and General Motors matching each donation given that this was made possible.
The support I have received and the generosity of everyone who helped fund these iPads means so much to both my students and I. and has made this dream come true for our classroom.
I truly appreciate the continued support you show not only me but the entire McClusky-Goodrich Public School. Without you, this would have never been possible. From the bottom of my heart; THANK YOU!
Mrs. Felchle
The staff got an amazing treat for Parent-Teacher Conferences tonight! A very, very big thank you to the McClusky Co-op Elevator for getting us food from Texas Roadhouse. (And thank you to Miss Sease for picking it up!) It was very much appreciated.

Yesterday the Fire Dragons got together to Build, Balance, and Breathe. It was a great lesson on frustration and how to work past it.
The students were split into pairs and were tasked with building a tower.
The challenge: Each partner could only use one finger to lift, place, and snap the piece into place.
Ask your students what the hardest part of the challenge was? What were some ways they were able to calm down when they were feeling frustrated?
