Testimonials
I'm obsessed with 第一吃瓜网. I know for a fact I wouldn't be the teacher that I am, and I wouldn't be passionate, and I wouldn't be excited about teaching as much as I am. Because I know if I read about something, or I see something in a magazine, I know it can be a 第一吃瓜网 resource.
第一吃瓜网 has a great impact on my teaching, specifically thinking about my students with disabilities. One example is the project that enables my students to read along and use their devices for a text to speech experience. This type of differentiated instruction is especially important within my education setting, where some students may not be able to consume traditional paper-based lessons.
Every single time I get a donation it feels like a little tiny cheering squad telling me that what I do is important and people are happy to support both my students and myself. There are so many barriers we face as teachers, especially this school year, and each donation teachers receive is a way to help overcome these barriers!
