    Funded Nov 29, 2022

    Kindness like yours can move mountains. Thank you for your supportive and loving heart. I treasure you! An authentic and considerate person like you should be recognized and praised because you truly make this world a better place. I hope you know this. I am so thankful I have your passionate support for public education. Thank you, from the bottom of my heart. My students mean so much, and all these little things in this project are so important.

    My little learners love the new foam hand soap. They want to earn a treat and they want to come to school. It's the season to be jolly and my students just love their treat bags with their brown bear book. Oh, what joy! Thank you for your generosity.”

    I would like to take this opportunity to express my most sincere gratitude for your generous gift to the students of my classroom. I was amazed to see how excited my students were when they discovered that they had a wonderful new iPad, to use during circle time. This fantastic tablet will provide limitless opportunities for my tiny talents to practice a wide variety of newly acquired skills. My students are enjoying every single moment they get with this technology. Thank you for that. Thank you for helping us reach our classroom goal.

Thank you for helping provide a kind community of peers. My young learners are beautiful and need so much care, and thanks to your support they are being seen!

    Thanks are due to everyone who helped sponsor this latest project request for the wonderful things needed to help turn our classroom into a fantastic place for learning.

    In addition, the tablet stand and our latest technology allows me access to a wide variety of learning apps to share stories, songs and nursery rhymes as well as many more uses.

  • Little Books Big Learners

    Funded Apr 6, 2022

    I'm so happy to share with you the beautiful smiles these books brought my students. It is amazing to see my students sit and enjoy reading their very own books. What an awesome gift! These books are so important and very relevant to our student's learning experience. Thank you so much for such an excellent gift.

    These year we focused on social emotional learning and the story of the color monster focused on emotions. The students made colored monsters to express how they we feeling, and we're able to express their feelings. They loved that book! Every day and every child should have access to books. I appreciate your generosity and kindness. Thank you for so many great titles and for bringing books into the hands of my young learners.”

My students are unique individuals who will turn five years old between December and June of the school year. I teach 24 ETK/ PCC students.

They come from low income families, and most of them are second language learners. They attend an all day program at a primary center in California. My students love books, singing, dancing and play time. Learning can be a challenge for the little ones, but they all show up to school every day.
