4th Grade Classroom Organization
Funded Aug 28, 2023Thank you so much for your generosity. Giving to my project made an enormous impact on my students. We were in desperate need of many supplies and we we were able to get them because of you!
When everything has a place to go, the classroom functions the way it should. The storage cart makes a lot of difference. We have many places to store important things that help the classroom run smoothly. The document holders make work accessible and color coded for students that really help. The stools are a HUGE help because they free up a lot of space at the teacher table. Students can fit much more comfortably.
Because of you we are able to have supplies in our classroom that help us function well. Thank you again for your generous gift! You are appreciated!”

Funded Sep 20, 2022Thank you so much for your generosity. We don't all have access to the same things, so I appreciate you making sure all students have access to everything they need to succeed at school. The notebooks, scissors and other school supplies make it possible to do more dynamic and fun activities. The treasure box materials help me motivate students to do their best and put their best foot forward each day. Departmentalizing classes requires a lot of organization. The cart has helped out so much with that. Again, from the bottom of my heart, thank you so much for donating to our project and making our classroom fun, organized, and stocked. I so appreciate you!”

Funded Dec 15, 2022Thank you so much for donating to our project. Our 4th graders were able to give dynamic, exciting presentations because of you! They were so excited to use the materials and did a fantastic job making their boards look fantastic. The colored paper and other board details really made the details stand out. The markers helped us see their writing from the audience. We were able to help students recognize the importance of making our work look it's best and how best to capture an audience. We couldn't have done it without your generosity. From the bottom of our hearts, THANK YOU!!”

Flexible Seating
Funded Jul 13, 2022Thank you so much for your generous contribution to my project. After a quarter of a year of lockdown, a year of virtual school, and a year of social distancing, it was important to make my classroom a place where students felt comfortable and happy. The materials for flexible seating made that possible. I love that the standing desks are adjustable so that students who want to stand can stand but if they want to sit we can put them back down. It's so refreshing for students to have choice. The floor cushions are beautiful and comfortable. Lots of students love sitting on the floor so it's wonderful for them to have a comfortable way to do so. All of the other parts of the project are essential for organization and running a safe and happy classroom. Thank you SO much for being a part of making that happen. I am so grateful for you!”

SOL Party Supplies
Funded May 11, 2022Thank you so much for donating to our SOL party last year! Our students had a blast. We think it really made a difference because their performance was outstanding! They felt encouraged and supported because of this party. Instead of feeling scared and nervous, they got a party that made the experience fun! This is because of you! They enjoyed all the games, food, and prizes that were donated to the project. Thank you again from the bottom of our hearts. We could not have pulled off this party without your support!”

Funded Nov 29, 2021Thank you so much for your generosity! Packing up my classroom last year was chaotic. We had to get rid of a lot of things to increase space to social distance when we came back. On top of that, my daughter was born 4 weeks early so I didn't get to set up my classroom the way I had planned. When I returned from maternity leave I needed a lot to get my room the way we needed it to function! Your donation helped me do that! Our computers are now off the floor and organized! I also have plenty of places to put student work so that it's easily accessible to them and to me. I really appreciate you and am so thankful that you helped me get there!”

Distance Learning Classroom
Funded Aug 11, 2020I can't thank you enough. This pandemic has affected everyone, but teachers are surely struggling. I don't know where I'd be without your generous donations. I think I'd probably have carpal tunnel without the keyboard and the mouse for sure. Typing and maneuvering a mouse on a laptop is fine when you're not doing it all day every day, but that's not what I'm doing. The amount of time I am on my computer not only teaching, but also creating slide decks to go along with lessons, grading, commenting, etc, has become a 10 hour a day job. I would not be effective without a keyboard and a mouse. The monitor is also amazing. The quality and size have helped my productivity as well. The web cam makes virtual learning so much better. The camera on my laptop is pretty bad, but the webcam one is SO much better. I'm so grateful for all these things that have made an almost impossible job so much more bearable! Thank you from the bottom of my heart!”

Funded Aug 13, 2019Our year has been going so smoothly thanks to you! It's always been such a huge financial stress to purchase school supplies for my students. I can't always count on students to bring everything they need to be successful on the first day. I also like to start the labeling and organization process BEFORE the year starts, so having the materials ahead of time is a must for me. I so appreciate your generous donations for school supplies and organization materials for my classroom.
Years ago I got rid of my desk to have more student space in my room. It has been nice, but has led to some organization and space problems for me. I strive to be an organized person and I am for the most part, but when you don't have a place to put things they end up in a pile and that pile grows and grows until it finally tips over when you accidentally hit with your elbow. Having my file box and my desk organizer have changed a lot for me. My small group table is clear and organized and can be used as a functional space. I have places to put student work where I can easily get to it in my color coded files!
Third grade is a big year for learning organization skills. Having notebooks and folders for certain information has been great for them! Each of their three notebooks have a different function and each of their two folders have a specific function. Having 2 sets of students doubled my numbers and my need for these materials so YOUR donations have greatly impacted me! The crayons, glue sticks, and other school supplies are very much appreciated! I just can't thank you enough for your generosity!”

Funded Aug 22, 2018Thank you so much for your generosity! My class has loved using all the materials this year so far. My kids love using the yoga mats any chance they get. I like to use flexible seating so that everyone has somewhere to spread out and concentrate. The yoga mats make it possible to be comfortable anywhere in our classroom. The nature books have been so wonderful to use as guide texts for our reading units. The kids also love to read them independently. It really feels like a forest in our room and the books connect us even more to nature. We also love the tablets. There are lots of different reading ranges in my room so having a tablet helps get students a book on their level at the touch of a button. None of this would have been possible without YOU. From the bottom of Room 10's hearts- THANK YOU!”
