Teacher Testimonial for The Interactive Whiteboard System Focus Grant:
I truly believe that this Interactive Whiteboard System has helped me to become a better teacher, and helped my students to become more engaged in my lessons. I am extremely grateful to the WEEF committee for choosing me for their grant. My students thank you too!!!
Student Testimonial for Author visit to Dunn’s Corners School:
“Thank you for funding our author visit. I loved having him visit, he is the best author ever! We read all of his books, literally, we even got to write our own endings to one of his stories. It was awesome! My favorite part was when, well THE WHOLE THING!! The presentation inspired me to love reading, even be an author! Thank you so much for funding the author visit, if you didn’t fund the visit I would still be arguing with my parents every time they tell me to read. Thank you!!”
Teacher Testimonial for The Primary Autism Technology Suite Venture:
“This was a great opportunity to be creative in ways to approach supporting students in their academic and functional needs. In a society that is highly technologically based, giving students an opportunity to learn with this technology is not only motivating but a very effective and modern way to support instruction. Students have benefited greatly from the visual supports that have supplemented social skills instruction, music to help them regulate their emotions, and utilize applications that support their academic growth as well.”
Teacher Testimonial for Visual Arts Technology submitted by John Tedeschi:
“Thank you for fostering changes and allowing new technologies to better the delivery of art instruction within Westerly Public Schools. Words can not describe how effective this tool is in the art room. It is certainly a necessity for any art room to have the piece of equipment. It maximizes time which is greatly appreciated within the limited amount of contact time with the students. It enhances any type of visual that the student needs to see, with the conveniences of being able to work at the same time.”
Student Testimonial for Inspiring Students to Read Write Poetry:
“After working with Mr. Madden in our poetry unit, the work we did really showed me how poetry can be a creative outlet for expressing my feelings. This unit helped me to appreciate poetry and the poet’s ability to communicate their feelings in a melodic way.”
