  • Magical Magnetics!

    Funded Feb 7, 2025

    Thank you so much for our magic Magnetic Boards. The front of our classroom looks so much better and more importantly, it is more functional. I am so excited to use the magnets for our work. We have been working on our Wit and Wisdom skills and I am itching to put up the wonderful strategy reminders for my dear Students. So far, it looks great! I have also shared the extra markers and erasers and organizer with our special education classes. Teachers were so happy. They said that they will be using them every day.

    Thank you for being an educational partner for my wonderful students!”

    You are amazing!

    We had so much fun playing with the Flower Garden Building Kit. It came at a perfect time. We loved creating our own Gardens. They were so beautiful. Each one was unique.

    We can not wait to use our felt story sequencing pictures. They look like great fun!

    It is all because of you! Our class is fun and educational because you are our friend.

  • Teacher Pay Teachers Gift of Learning!

    Funded Apr 2, 2024

    Thank you so much for your wonderful gift!

    We have been using it to learn Spring Vocabulary. We read the "Spring": adaptive books. My students have enjoyed the adaptive book: I See (spring). Students matched the objects and used their devices to label the objects on the book. We also counted spring objects using: How many? (spring )adaptive books. My students counted spring objects in the book.

    We also use your gift card to get the worksheets and the comprehension Boom Cards, for the book, The Very Hungry Caterpillar. It was so much fun creating the story sequencing activity to take home. We also used boom cards for comprehension questions as well as following directives.

    My students love the new Teacher pay Teacher activities.”

  • Prizes for Homework!

    Funded Feb 7, 2024

    Thank you so much for your wonderful gift!

    My students were excited to get new sensory toys for their homework prizes.

    They are very happy to do their homework, so that they can get prizes from the prize box.

    Each time they come to speech they show me their homework and count the stickers on their chart. So glad are they to get 10 stickers and shop in the prize box.

    They love the space galaxy slime. It goes very well with our space theme.

    Thank you for being our partner in learning! Your donation makes our speech classroom exciting!”

    Thank you so much for your wonderful gift. As we are finishing our winter theme, my students are getting a taste of our Outer Space theme. We have made our reading corner into outer space wonder. The children already drift to it and label things we see in the sky. It is very exciting. I cannot wait to see what they will do and how much they will learn.

    We have a book: Moustronout, waiting for us. Our adaptive book All About Space is waiting for us in the reading bucket.

    As we prepare ourselves for the new unit Outer Space unit, we are already getting a bit of a taste as we do the puzzles and prepare our vocabulary for the exciting and new advantage. We are almost ready!”
