Nifty Non-Fictions Books!
Funded May 23, 2019Thank you so much for your generous donations towards our Donor's Choose project! When our new books arrived, my students were so excited! I can't explain the excitement on their little faces when they saw all the fantastic new books!
Since we received our new books, our students have been learning a lot about non-fiction topics! The kids were so excited to be able to choose a book and have me read it to them! They were also excited to explore the books themselves and learn new facts!
I have already seen them be able to use the facts they've learned to share information with other students and adults. They are also able to use the information they've learned to become better writers!
We can't thank you enough for donating to our classroom and investing in these little minds! These books will be used for years to come and I can't wait to share them with my next group of sweet Kindergarteners! Thank you!!”

Funded Sep 8, 2016Thank you so much for donating to our project! When our new rug and snacks arrived, my students were so excited! I can't explain the excitement on their little faces when they saw the beautiful new rug!
Since we received our materials, snack time has been stress free for us! We've had a few families not able to purchase snack and we have gone right to our stash. The students have enjoyed having a supply of healthy snacks to choose from and several things they really like! No one has had to go without snack and this has been great for us!
Morning movement has been amazing with everyone having their own space and boundaries on our beautiful new rug. The students love having a space they can call their own and we are able to use it for learning and exercise!
We can't thank you enough for donating to our classroom and investing in these little minds!”

This classroom project was brought to life by Target and 5 other donors.We Can "App"solutely Learn More with iPads!
Funded Jan 11, 2016Thank you so much for your generous donations towards our Donor's Choose project! Because of you, our class was provided with a second iPad and we are now able to have an iPad center during Center time! We are also able to use it as a reward, for tutoring, and so much more!
When we received our second iPad, the students were so excited to be able to interact with the apps I had chosen for them! We are using it to reinforce concepts we are learning through educational apps and e-books. We love exploring Letterland, our Phonics program, especially! We are able to review math concepts, work with letters, form letters, sounds, and make words.
Through this project, our students have become better readers and writers because their phonics skills have improved. We have seen growth on our math tests after reviewing math skills. We have been able to use our iPad with all of our students rather than just a select few.
Having this makes review easy and fun! The students are constantly asking us to use it! Thank you for taking interest in our students!”

Connecting to "App"solutely Engaging Learning
Funded Dec 17, 2014Thank you so much for your generous donations towards our Donor's Choose project! Because of you, 12 Kindergarten classrooms were provided with an iPad connector and we are now able to connect our 1 classroom issued iPad to our SMART Boards allowing all of our students to be engaged and interact with it!
When we received our shipment with the iPad connectors, the students were so excited to be able to connect the iPad to the SMART Board! They couldn't believe they were able to see it on the big screen! Each classroom received a connector and we are using it to reinforce concepts we are learning through educational apps and e-books. We love exploring Letterland, our Phonics program, especially! We are able to review math concepts, work with letters, form letters, sounds, and make words.
