  • Do You Hear What I Hear?

    Funded Mar 26, 2025

    Thank you so much for supporting my classroom. The students are going to be so excited when I tell them that we are getting new headphones. I am always amazed at the number of people who are willing to make my classroom a better learning environment. Again, thank you for your donation.

  • Tools to Help Us Grow!

    Funded Dec 3, 2024

    Thank you so much for all of your generous help and thoughtful donations towards getting this Donors Choose project fully funded. My students were so excited and thrilled about their new four-pocket folders. Thanks to the materials we have received, we are now able to be organized. Students are using folders with their names on them to protect their materials. Allowing students to have their own folders has helped clear up the clutter, and it has also given students a sense of responsibility and independence. Students are now able to safely and securely their papers into separate pockets for language arts, science, social studies, and math. Students keep their classwork in these folders when they are working on lengthy projects or longer writing compositions. Students now can keep track of materials for several days or weeks at a time, so these folders are essential to our classroom success. Thank you for the dry-erase markers and erasers. With each student equipped with their own marker, they are more inclined to share their thoughts, contribute to discussions, and actively engage with the material. Thank you for your generosity. My students and I appreciate your thoughtfulness.”

  • Let's Get Organized!

    Funded Aug 15, 2023

    Thank you very much for fully funding "Let's Get Organized." The wall cabinets have allowed us to store more important instructional materials. The storage cabinets have been a great asset to the class as it has helped us to stay more organized. We can store materials especially when they are not in use. This allows us to keep materials stored in an organized way to find them easily when needed for future lessons. I could not do what I do without your help and support. There are not enough words to describe how your donations have an impact on my students. Thank you for your kindness, support, and love for my students!”

  • Chairs for Learning!

    Funded Nov 29, 2022

    I can't thank you enough for supplying new, durable chairs for our science lab! These chairs will last for years to come and serve many students in the upcoming years! We recently renovated our science lab and the outcome has been amazing. My students can now sit comfortably in our Science lab while completing science projects and activities. Without your kind donation, this would not have been possible.

    We are hoping to add more to our science lab like tables and manipulatives. As we continue to add to our science lab, our students will find their love for science again! Thank you so much! We wouldn't have these without you and your generosity! We are so grateful! Thank you!”

I'm requesting fourteen wobble chairs to replace chairs in my classroom. Students will be allowed to use wobble chairs throughout the entire school day. These chairs will allow them to move and flex without leaving their seat. The wobble chair works nicely as a seating alternative. The best part is the students don't have to sit still and can move freely! These chairs will allow students to improve their learning by making them more active but staying in one spot. They will have the ability to move around more while sitting and will make them more attentive and engaged in their learning.
