Math Manipulatives Make Learning More Meaningful
Funded Sep 11, 2023It is with great gratitude and appreciation that I submit this impact letter to you for your kindness and willingness to give, toward "Math Manipulatives Make Learning More Meaningful". My student's faces lit up when the manipulatives arrived! They beg me everyday to finish our objectives and put them in small groups so that they can get in small groups to actually use all the wonderful manipulatives they were given. I truly enjoy how these manipulatives are helping them gain such a love for math. We thank you that our students have an abundance in school, even though that may not be the case elsewhere."
Our school year math activities are usually highly anticipated and full of fun and excitement and it now they have become so much more hands on and my students really enjoy themselves and sometimes don't even realize that they are learning at the same time. This type of learning is what makes me enjoy being a Kindergarten teacher especially with wonderful materials that are donated by such a great organization.
Thank you for your kind and generous donations! We are very appreciative!!"”

Vanguard Kindergarten Readers are Ready to Read!
Funded Sep 21, 2022There is no way I could express how your generous donation has made such a positive impact on my students. They have such an eagerness to complete their work so that they can use their Apple Airpod max headphones. By having the most up to date technology at their disposal gives them access to the modern world in such a meaningful way, not to mention the clarity that they provide them makes them feel as if they are alone in a small group when they are in a small crowded room of almost 20. This helps them focus on their reading and allows them enough time to really complete their reading work without any interruptions. Thank you so much for all your generosity and just helping my well deserving Kindergartners with this wonderful learning tool.”
