Get Your TECH On!
Funded Oct 17, 2018Words cannot adequately express the impact the Microsoft Surface Go along with all the accessories have made in my classroom. Technology has become an integral part of classrooms in this era. Due to funding issues in schools, technology is not always readily available to students. This device has provided ample opportunities for students to meet mandated IREADY lessons each week as well as provide differentiated instruction in the classroom. In addition, this device has allowed for students to conduct research independently as well as in cooperative groups, which is an important component in our IB program at the school. I am so grateful for the opportunity to share these experiences with my students. I could not have done it without Donor's Choose. Thanks you so very much.”

This classroom project was brought to life by Chevron Fuel Your School.We Are Able with a Kidney Table!
Funded Oct 23, 2017Words cannot adequately express the impact the kidney table has had on my students. Because of your donation, I have been able to meet with my various groups everyday to provide differentiated instruction. Differentiated Instruction is a crucial aspect of early childhood instruction. All students have different academic needs, and small group instruction is the best way to reach each child and their specific learning needs. My students have benefited greatly and I am so grateful for the opportunity you have give to me and my students.”

Help Us Create Engaging Literacy Centers
Funded Oct 3, 2012I would like to take the time to offer my sincere gratitude for the donations you have made to my clasrroom. The magnetic boards with letters, whisperphones and stamps have helped tremendously in the reading centers currently being implemented . Students have used them in buddy reading, making words and even to practice their spanish vocabulary.
During these tough economic times, teachers need the help of donations more than ever. Because of your generous donations, my students are equipped with the tools necessary for reading success.
Many thanks!”

Mrs. Barrios
This classroom project was brought to life by Kia Motors America and 4 other donors.Organized Literacy Center
Funded Aug 19, 2011I'd like to take the time to let you know how much I appreciate your generous donation to my classroom. The bookshelf that you donated has helped my students every single day. In the past, I did not have the adequate space to organize all of our books. They were simply clumped together. This bookshelf has given me the space to organize our class books by genres/topics. My students can now easily choose books based on interest. They absolutely love our classroom library now.
As you know, times are quite tough at the moment. I could have not purchased this bookshelf on my own. Without your help, this would not have been possible. You have given my students the opportunity to choose books with ease and enjoy reading. ”

More Quality Time Learning - Organized Children
Funded Dec 11, 2008When I filled out the application for this project during my summer break, I had no idea how desperately I would need these materials particularly for this school year. I have a group of 22 children and feel as if this is the most unorganized group I've ever taught. You have given me the tools I need to show the children how important it is to be organized. I can finally focus on teaching rather than spending so much valuable time with lost materials. I would like to take the time to thank you from the bottom of my heart for the most generous gift I've received from anyone towards the needs of my students. Thank you, Thank you, Thank you! You are god sent.
God bless and Happy Holidays!
