  • Slime Makes Matter

    Funded Mar 16, 2025

    Thank you donors! You matter to us, thank you for the supplies to bring different matter into our classroom. We cannot wait to make different types of slime with all of our solutions. This is a great activity to help students understand what happens when we mix different substances and the different states of matter that we can create.”

  • Utensils to Change the World!

    Funded Dec 3, 2024

    Thank you so much for contributing to our creative Math and Science classroom. We use the markers and expos on the daily. We are creating beautiful posters to display our work, using colorful vocabulary and as always marking up the whiteboard.

    With 100 different students coming through my classroom we go through pencils and markers like crazy. With the support from donors like you, we are able to keep up with the high demands of basic supplies. Students are able to work with their groups and create problem solving posters that ultimately lead to their mastery of skills. It's the everyday tasks that make us better. And when we have fresh new supplies students feel the love and want to do better.

    Thank You!”

  • Ink Please!

    Funded Jan 8, 2024

    Thank you so much for your generous donation of ink. Many of the day to day activities I use for my class require printing on my own. It makes such a difference when students have something in front of them that they can take notes on or draw on.

    The impact of your donation services over 120 students on any given day. It is such a convenience when I have what I need for my students at my own disposal.

    Thank you again for choosing our classroom as well as choosing donorschoose for your donation fulfillment. Together we do better.”

  • Winter is Coming!

    Funded Nov 20, 2023

    We didn't have a terrible winter in Chicago, however we were indoors for a couple weeks and lately some rain. My students loved the games that came. The chess tournaments happening across the classrooms got very competitive. Some students who never played were able to learn from the more novice players. Headbands also created alot of competitive screams. The kids always fought over who got to play and they always needed to stand up to get the full effect. The games were a perfect distraction to not getting to go outside. We can't thank you enough for supporting our classroom and bringing in some fresh sets of games- with all the pieces!

    Thank you again for your thoughtful donation and supporting classrooms and teachers. Together we all do better.”

  • A Stylish Stylist

    Funded Mar 15, 2021

    Thank you so much for the stylist pen. I cannot tell you how valuable it isn't display information. My students are able to quickly see the notes and I able to color and highlight wherever I choose. The impact has been tremendous to our vocabulary and quick notes.

    Getting back to this school year has been tricky after remote learning but there were aLot of benefits too. The tremendous support from donors like yourself is how we manage to get through it. Your generosity and thoughtfulness has helped so many students.”

  • Remote Expertises

    Funded Sep 21, 2020

    I apologize for the delay in this humongous thank you. I have drafted the letter a few times and I'm struggling to express my gratitude for the MacBook as it has been a tool that has brought remote teaching to a whole different level.

    I teach 7th grade math, and we have been remote since last March. Since receiving this gift it has enhanced our virtual

    Classroom. I'm able to see my entire Meet in complete colorful video and audio. Student's faces are clear and bright. I am able to transition from the Meet to shared documents and other tabs with ease.

    Your support for our classroom is amazing. Thank you for your generous donation. We thank you often since you're the reason our classroom came to life.”

  • Modeling Math in Color!

    Funded May 18, 2020

    I am a veteran teacher, but new to this remote learning. I cannot tell you enough how much the iPad and IPad Pen has changed my remote teaching from the spring. It's been amazing.

    My students have booklets at home and I have the booklets downloaded to the iPad. I am able to write in the pdf; that includes highlighting vocabulary, explaining problems in colors and writing notes all

    over. The students are able to see all of my notes when I share the screen of the iPad. It's amazing.

    This gift has helped all of our learners. Students ask to re-do a problem or go back to one we did the day before. The iPad is able to save all of the changes that the Apple pen creates. The pen brings life to the notes that wouldn't have been possible before. Thank you for bringing us to the 21st Century.”

  • Toner...it’s Exciting!

    Funded Dec 4, 2019

    Thank you so much for the toner. We use a copy machine in our 7th and 8th grade wing that is responsible for over 300 students.

    We use this machine to make copies everyday that assist us with making graphic organizers, task cards, note taking and so much more.

    Although all of our students benefit from the toner; the group of learners that benefit the most are our diverse learners and English as a Second language learners. We are so proud of our partnership with Donors Choose and are grateful for donors like you.”

  • Ink Please!

    Funded Jun 14, 2019

    We want to thank you for being a part of our exciting math classroom. The ink you so graciously donated helps us out tremendously.

    We have a huge population of diverse learners and middle school kids who need to have access to different ways to learn concepts. The main thing we print out is graphic organizers to help with notes, concepts and vocabulary. My students love to get up and work with other peers. We make math fun by tying in games like Bingo, scavenger hunts and other task cards. With the ink I am able to make as many copies as necessary, it's great!”

  • I Want To Participate!

    Funded Dec 29, 2018

    We are loving our latest whiteboard! We can't thank you enough for supporting our classroom. Your generous gift allows us to put more student work on the walls. Our students love to participate and use colorful markers and big displays to show their understanding. It is wonderful to be able to write all over the classroom, it has added much more to our creative flow.

    Creating 21st century learners is much easier when our classrooms are designed with 21st century technology. We are doing great things in this classroom and will continue to do more thanks to you!”
