  • Explorers Mission: D.E.A.R (Drop Everything and Read)

    Funded Feb 28, 2023

    I want to thank you for donating to my classroom. The students have increased their ability to read independently. Your donation of the rug to add to our library made students want to go there, get cozy, and flip through books.

    What a spark the rug has caused! As I asked the children what words they already knew in a book they were looking through, they began to say and point to sight words and words they could read. Seeing them sprawled out on the carpet looking through the pages of books to hunt for words they could read warmed my heart.

    When the children would ask to go to the classroom library-- this put the icing on the cake. They were hooked. Student began focusing during phonics instruction to blend sounds to figure out words. I attribute this all to your donation. Without the rug, there were no students who wanted to go to our classroom library. Thank you, thank you, thank you!”

    With gratitude,

    Mrs. Smallwood

  • The Explorers Mission: Strong Word Builders, Decoders and Writers!

    Funded Dec 19, 2022

    We have been increasing our reading, writing, and math skills with the donations we have received from you. Your gifts help us engage more with lessons and build up skills in the areas mentioned above. Not to mention they also provide incentives and motivation to begin working.

    The K/1 Explorers were so excited to have received your gracious gift. They were in anticipation while waiting for the shipment to arrive and then, when it came in the children asked, "Mrs. Smallwood, when are we going to use the writing mats and letters and things? When can we use them?! So, immediately we began using our new supplies.

    With excitement, the children helped to unpack all of the supplies and put them in their prospective places. They immediately got to work on both writing and math activities. Your gift has impacted us greatly. We are leveling up in the K/1 classroom. For that, we are beyond grateful!”

    With gratitude,

    Mrs. Smallwood

    This classroom project was brought to life by Carter's | OshKosh B'gosh and 2 other donors.
