A (Toner) Cartridge in a Pear Tree 3.0
Funded Oct 8, 2020I can't thank you enough for donating to my classroom. Your generosity is greatly appreciated.
I ordered this toner cartridge because most of my students are unable to print out their own essays to bring to the classroom. Therefore, I would like to print my students' essays for them.
When we return to the physical classroom, I will use the toner cartridge to print the essays. Then my students will put the essays into their writing portfolios.
Once again, thank you so much for thinking of my students.”

A (Toner) Cartridge in a Pear Tree 2.0
Funded Nov 21, 2019Thank you for your generous donations. I just received the toner cartridge, and I am so grateful.
To prepare my students for college, I assign multi-paragraph essays. Many of my students don't have printers at home, so I print the essays for them using my classroom printer. The new toner cartridge I received will allow me to do just that.
With printed essays, my students will be able to share their writing with their classmates. Collaborating with their peers will generate additional ideas to help improve their writing skills.
Thank you again for your contribution to my classroom.”

Let's Read!
Funded Mar 26, 2018We are so excited to get these new books and squeeze balls. We just love reading the Diary of a Wimpy Kid books. They are easy to read and have great illustrations. Because they are so entertaining, we read more which helps improve our reading skills.
When we read our books, sometimes we like to squeeze a ball. The colorful squeeze balls we received are wonderful because they calm us down which helps us focus more on our reading.
Thank you so very much for your generous donations. We truly appreciate your kindness.”

Funded Aug 7, 2017Thank you for your most generous donation. The funds allowed me to purchase books for my classroom library. My students can check out the books from my library and take them home to read.

Your thoughtful donation is greatly appreciated. Thank you again for taking an interest in my students' reading endeavors.”

I don't know what teachers would do without wonderful donors like you. Your donations help us enrich our students' lives.
Thank you so much for your generosity and support. You showed an act of kindness that Teresa B. and I will never forget.”

This classroom project was brought to life by An Anonymous Funder and 8 other donors.Out of Print (er)
Funded Aug 25, 2016We are so happy that we received the printer, toner, and flash drives. Because we didn't have a working printer, this new printer will enable us to print our essays.
At this point we are working on writing "perfect" paragraphs. We are fortunate to have laptops in our classrooms, but we can't print from these laptops. When we are finished with our writing, we use the flash drives to transfer our files so they can be printed by our teacher.
This new printer is amazing and is so fast. We can't thank you enough for donating to our classroom. It's greatly appreciated.”
