Let Speakaboos...Help My Scholars Read!!
Funded Apr 18, 2014I would like to thank you for supporting my scholars on their education by your great donation. Because of your generosity, my scholars are able to improve their reading comprehension skills, a most needed skills with reading and building literacy.
My students were so excited to have a program that can be easily access thru any computer, especially at home. Your awesome donation has allow my students to develop and continue to build a love for...reading. Speakaboos has been a huge success with my reluctant and low level readers. The impact of your generosity will be felt long after the school year has ended.
Thanks! For all that you have done for my students. Your gratitude will always be remembered by our school.”

This classroom project was brought to life by AKJ Books and one other donor.Oh! No! Our Sharpener is Out-Of-Service!
Funded May 6, 2014My scholars were so excited to see that the actual package with our most needed sharpener, had finally arrived. They were actually more excited than me.
My scholars and I started using the sharpener that very day. My scholars have learned... to value everything we have to shared in our classroom community. The electric sharpener has lifted a great burden on me. A pencil sharpener is a must in my classroom as we use pencils regularly. My scholars can now have their writing tools ready at hand and ready to go without stopping the writing flow. Teaching a special education inclusion class makes any disruption hard for me to pull back my students to the flow of learning. The sharpener has been a welcome relief.
Having the electric sharpener in the classroom has been a great learning and teaching boost to both my scholars and I. It has allowed us to focus on the learning and not on the disruption we were experiencing. In addition, this awesome electric pencil sharpener has made pencil maintenance quick and clean.
Thank you again for your kind donation and your dedication to the future leaders of tomorrow.”

Extra! Extra! Scholars Need...More Supplies
Funded Jan 16, 2014My scholars were speechless, when I told them that their project was funded. They were even more excited when the materials arrived. Many of my student's family are struggling financial, so they too were excited to hear that their children will have the necessary materials to continue to succeed on the road to college.
My students and I didn't waste anytime opening the boxes and got straight to work with our materials. The welcome composition notebooks were used right away in our ELA block and other content areas used throughout the day. The timer has been a blessing. I use the timer to time them in our morning extended day block to build reading stamina that they will need for the upcoming state exams. My mathematicians are constantly using the dry erase markers to prove their computations are correct.
The funding of our project has helped my students focus more on their learning and not where their parents are going to obtain the money to purchase these supplies. It's boosted my teaching because I now have the materials that are ready at hand to continue with the learning. Providing my students and I with these materials, has made learning and the transitioning of it to move more smoothly. Thank you again for your donation. My scholars and I really appreciated your kindness.”
