  • Bulldogs Ask: Who Let the Science Out?

    Funded Nov 20, 2007

    My students and I are so pleased to learn that our project "Bulldogs Ask: Who Let the Science Out?" has been funded thanks to your generous donation! We are so excited about the prospect of studying live animals in our classroom! Students learn by doing. Our new aquarium, animal habitat and worm farm will go a long way in helping these deserving students get some hands-on experiences. What a wonderful Thanksgiving this is for my class! We are truly thankful for your donation and we will use these materials to become thoughtful young scientists!

    Sincerely,

    Ms. G and the Kindergarten Students at Harris Elementar”

  • Experiments in Calculus

    Funded Oct 29, 2007

    I cannot express how thrilled I am to see that these items have been funded. Our resources for this AP class are limited, making it difficult to create high-level activities that peak student interest. With your generous donation, my students will see how the mathematics they have learned about in class relate to the world around them. I look forward to using this technology, not only for this school year, but for years to come”

  • Whiteboards and Dry Erase Pens to Display Responses

    Funded Oct 29, 2007

    I am grateful for the supplies. These boards will enable the students to fully engage in the classroom. The students love having their own materials and get excited about learning. These boards will help students who may have not made it if we weren't able to pull them into the educational process.

    Thank you

  • Third Eye Technology

    Funded Oct 12, 2007

    I can't believe it! You are so awesome and when the kids see it and use it, they'll be amazed. The microscope will help us engage and interest our special education students, but the best part is teaching them that there are people out there that care about helping them.

    The first group to use it will be my 7th graders, who are working on cell structure in animals and plants. Later on they'll be working on genetics, so they'll be examining hair and fingerprint samples as well as extracting DNA from strawberries. Also up and coming is work on crystal structure, soil composition, water quality, rock samples and many other whole-class activities that will be enhanced by the use of this microscope.

    This is my first time using Donors Choose, and when I saw the email that we'd been funded, I COULD NOT BELIEVE IT! You have really made my day.

    Respectfully,

    Deborah ”

  • Exciting Ways To Learn Math

    Funded Oct 7, 2007

    Thank you so much for funding our proposal. I look forward to sending you pictures of the students using the math games and resources. Thank you for your generosity and helping my students receive a well rounded education. Due to the demographics of the area our school is in, my students have limited exposure to unique and valuable experiences and materials which will broaden their horizons. You have truly made a difference in the lives of my 5th grade classroom. We appreciate you for all that you have done”

  • "Picture the Wonders of Science"

    Funded Oct 2, 2007

    I would like to thank you for funding my request for a digital camera for my classroom. Taking pictures of the students while they are creating projects and doing lab activities really makes their day. When the pictures are posted, they get to relive and review what they were doing when the picture was taken. Thank you again for helping us to be able to Picture the Wonders of Science!
