Letter and Number Activity Kit Fun!
Funded Nov 22, 2024Thank you so much for funding our Letter and Number Activity Kit Fun project. I wish you could have seen the joy on the students' faces when we opened all the pieces for them to see. The class loved taking apart each set and looking at the types of lines included in the kit.
This Letter and Number Activity has been a wonderful resource for the class to learn their letters in a fun way. The students have loved building the letters and discovering the shapes to put letters together. We cannot wait to continue using this resource as we learn even more letters and numbers.”

Magnificent Magnetic Tiles
Funded Aug 14, 2024Thank you so much for donating to our Giant Magnetic Tiles. Our students have loved building with these tiles. We have been able to build tall towers, haunted houses, tunnels, and so much more. I have been amazed how easily the students have been able to figure out how to piece everything together and make a new design each time. The creativity with these tiles is endless.
I wish you could have seen the delight on the students' faces when the tiles arrived they got to first build with them. The smiles and squeals of joy were priceless. Even months later, these tiles are the first pick of what students what to play with during choice centers.
Thank you again for your generosity.”

Funded Aug 14, 2019This thank you is just a small token of my appreciation for your generous donation to my classroom. The iPads you donated have become a valuable recourse for all of my students and has helped my classroom in so many ways. Students are eager to learn and excited for our centers and rotations knowing that they will be able to log in to their iPads.
My first graders have been using the iPads to help them solve higher level thinking questions and developing knowledge guided through our new common core curriculum. Many of my students are unable to access many of the educational curriculum we offer through technology at home, and are so excited they still get the chance to do so in class.
I am so thankful for you, and for your generous donation”

Printing Paradise
Funded Aug 15, 2013Thank you so much for donating to our printing paradise project! As soon as the printer arrived, excitement from the kids, and even the teacher, filled the air. Right away, all students were eager to type their stories knowing they would have a fantastic color printer to show off their work :)
Even parents in the classroom have benefited from this printer as well. Because it has a built in copy machine, we were able to photo copy drivers licenses and insurance cards to ensure all parents who wanted to were able to drive on our field trip!
There have been many days that the school printer and copiers have all been broken, but thanks to you, our class could continue on and keep learning with our fancy new printer/copier! From the bottom of our hearts, our whole class thanks you!”

Document Cameras Keep Kids Connected
Funded Feb 21, 2013This thank you is just a small token of my appreciation for your generous donation to my classroom. The document camera you donated has become a valuable recourse for all of my students and has helped my classroom in so many ways. Whenever it is time to use the document camera, my students get so excited and are eager to start learning. Several students have told me how thankful they are that they can finally see the work on the board since it is projected onto such a big screen. Others are finally motivated to do their work because they want to be able to show their work as an example and have it be projected to the class. All the students talk about how "cool" they think the document camera is, and I am so grateful that not only this class, but all the classes I have to come will be able to benefit from your amazing donation.
The document camera has been such a time saver as I can project anything we are working on and not have to spend time rewriting assignments on the board. This extra time has allowed us to fit so many more meaningful lessons into our day. I have been able to be a much more effective teacher, and my students have been able to flourish as learners.
I am so thankful for you, and for your generous donation!”

Cleaning Up The Arts
Funded Dec 14, 2011Thank you so much for contributing to the arts in education. The art smocks you donated have already helped my students tremendously. In the past few weeks we have already been able to do many art projects we previously have not been able to do, and I know, thanks to your help, that these art projects will continue to happen for years to come.
When students are told they are going to get to do an art project, the looks on their faces is truly priceless. Thank you for making that special moment in these students lives possible.
I am forever grateful for you, and for your donation.”
