  • Help Supply a New 3K Class Leaping Into Fall

    Funded Oct 11, 2022

    The rapid and generous response from friends, family and thoughtful donors far and wide has blown me away. All of your support will guarantee my new students have a safe, comfortable, and beautiful classroom where they can create and grow. And for me, the freedom from worrying about basic supplies allows me to focus on what I'm there to do: teach. Thank all of you for your valuable contributions.”

    With gratitude,

    Mrs. Mills

  • Providing the Basic Essentials for Learning Centers

    Funded Oct 17, 2021

    The months have flown by since I posted my request, but I wanted to take a few moments to share with you how much your generous donations positively impacted our 3K classroom. Filling our classroom centers with the resources students need to explore music and art has helped our students grow and learn, and more importantly, has broadened their creative horizons both inside and outside the classroom.

    Just this month, students used the modeling clay your donations provided to create their own dragons - some ferocious, some funny, some fantastical - to further our celebration and understanding of Lunar New Year. Every day our students visit the learning centers, their eyes open wide as they prepare to explore creative possibilities through a variety of markers, paints, decorations, and media. It is truly a sight to behold.

    We will continue to utilize these valuable tools after we return from a short, but much-needed Mid-Winter Recess and welcome spring with nature sculptures - everyone is already busy brainstorming their next masterpiece! Thank you all so much again...”

    With gratitude,

    Mrs. Mills

    This classroom project was brought to life by General Motors and 9 other donors.
  • A Jump Start for the Arts!

    Funded Dec 6, 2021

    Starting a new school year in a new school would have been difficult regardless, but realizing my vision of a warm, welcoming, enriching classroom would have been nearly impossible without all of your generous support. While there is always room for improvement, both my students and I are all proud and pleased that exploration and the arts have become part of our daily routine thanks to your kindness.”

    With gratitude,

    Mrs. Mills

  • Giving Learning Centers the Reading They're Needing

    Funded Oct 20, 2021

    Your generosity will take my Learning Centers to a new level, with new, content-specific reading materials getting the students excited to explore new ideas and create positive lifelong reading habits. Donors Choose has proven invaluable in creating a unique and engaging space where kids look forward to learning. Thanks again - my classroom shines because of you!”

    With gratitude,

    Mrs. Mills

Our students have time to explore our classroom Learning Centers every school day. For those unfamiliar with the concept, learning centers are activity stations located in specific areas of the classroom that encourage both individuals and small groups to build social skills, develop self-awareness, and discover interests. They are organized thematically - one center may focus on math skills with counting blocks and magnetic numbers, while another may focus on vocabulary with small animals, colors, and shapes that students use to create and discuss scenarios. While each of our Learning Centers focuses on specific skills and/or subjects, there are a few things all the centers have in common: they all enjoy frequent and rigorous use and, as a result, all of them also need to be maintained and cleaned regularly Your donations will help us build, expand, and maintain the Learning Centers that add a unique and valuable experience to every student's day.
