Impact to My Classroom

# of Students Impacted: 18

Dear Donors and Sponsors, THANK YOU for your generous support of Spelling City in our classroom. Every week, our students completed twenty minutes per day of Spelling City and Vocabulary exercises utilizing this vocabulary program. Each Friday, students were presented with a spelling test, and they improved their test scores by as much as 50% with pre tests and practice tests, with quizzes presented online, and through a paper based exam on Friday. Students felt a positive sense of accomplishment through this spelling program and vocabulary word platform online. Our students also improved their comprehension scores, fluency, and word study as this program improved upon the overall learning experience of our students. Also, your grant for Spelling City provided a framework for spelling words for each grade level, and when students had difficulty with mastering a word, they could practice it more through Spelling City online. We are very grateful to you for your support of our students' learning experience in Spelling and English Language Arts. You made a tremendous difference in our students' learning, and they mastered more than 400 spelling words and vocabulary because of your generous support. Gratefully Yours, Laura Pacter
