• Up To Date and Ready to Educate

  Funded Sep 23, 2019

  Imagine being in a classroom currently without up to date technology. It makes learning a lot more difficult that we can picture. Thanks to the donation of this laptop that has now changed the way in which my students learn. With the help of this laptop my students are now learning to create multimedia presentations to include slide shows, video and audio content. This has helped the way my students learn and present the information to others. Students are now beginning to think out of the box in terms of their learning.

  The product is most exciting to my students because they are beginning to learn how to manipulate media to extend their learning further. They will be able to be career ready by knowing how to demonstrate mastery of skills and present it to an audience. This is especially true of my class that has longed for the use of technology and find that they are seeing the world through a different set of eyes. Thank you for this project.”

• Sit, Explore, STEM!

  Funded Aug 11, 2019

  Thank you so much for this amazing opportunity. Our students are so excited about our STEM and differentiated instruction corner. It has made all the difference in creating a space that students are eager and excited to attend. Groups are their favorite part of the day because of these resources. The stools and rug provide a great area to sit while the stand creates a great storage space for all their materials.

  The students were extremely excited to to go to this once bland area. There is now a race every day for students to get to that corner. They especially love the colorful rug as it creates a great place for students to collaborate.

  Using this classroom project, we plan on creating and establishing collaborative relationships in which students work together to solve real-world problems. It is also a great area for students to sit and read all the latest and greatest books. Thanks to your generous contribution, it has made all the difference in our students lives and in our classroom. Thank you.”

• Search, Find, Discover!

  Funded Aug 5, 2019

  Thank you so much for this amazing opportunity for my students. We do not have access to enough computers for our students. This is going to allow my students to come in early and have access to a student station to complete their district programs. With this laptop we are now able to take our learning on the go. We can learn from different areas around the school.

  The most exciting thing about this laptop for our students is the ability it allows them to move freely in the classroom. Many of our students do not have computers at home so they come to school early to be able to use them. Now with this laptop students will be lining up outside the room early to meet their learning needs.

  Many students are already working in groups to learn how to use the coding programs that are available. They are excited about the learning opportunity that this gives them. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for your generous donation. It truly has made a world of difference in our classroom!”

• Stress Free Active Learning!

  Funded Apr 17, 2019

  Thank you so much for this generous gift to our classroom. With this gift we will be able to create a learning station that is stress free and gives students the opportunity to learn. Many times students need an outlet in order to express themselves and this is a great way to do so.

  With the diffuser and the essential oils we can allow aroma therapy to take place within our classroom on a daily basis. This will help students to feel calm and release their anxiety especially before a test. This will help ease their ability to learn. With the magnets and laminating machine we can begin to create projects that we can save and put up within our classroom. Students do not have to worry about their work being damaged. Finally, the squishy balls can be used to relieve stress while in class. All together these items allow us to have different stations that can have students feel comfortable in a safe learning environment.”

• On The Go Learning!

  Funded Dec 6, 2018

  Thanks to your generous donations our students are now able to have a mobile learning station. We have set up a station so that students can gather around and bring a laptop to connect. From here students can work together to complete reading assignments as well as projects.

  Our students are so excited for this station because it allows them the opportunity to work with new technology and in a new way. This allows my students to work in groups which is there favorite thing to do. Now they can bring in technology such as laptops and create new projects that they can share with the class.

  I have several students that are very excited about being wireless! They have never seen technology that allows them to work from across the room! This is probably their favorite part. Thanks to your generous donation our students are having the time of their lives!”
