Students at Work
Funded Sep 20, 2024The joy you have brought to my students has been simply immeasurable! They have truly loved every single aspect of this project and have really been so enthusiastic about being part of this project.
When we first opened the supplies the students ohhhed and ahhhhhed about the various cleaning supplies, they were begging to be part of the "work force" and each afternoon take pride in their new job.
This has really helped them gain a sense of pride and responsibility for their their classroom space and we are so very grateful for your support.”

The Potato Olympics
Funded Aug 14, 2024How lucky are we to have such an amazing support system in you. Thank you so very much for helping bring this project to life.
It's can be hard at time to keep education fresh and new. Kids are evolving and our classrooms need to as well. Sometimes creating ways to do that can be challenging. Resources are often limited and student interest can vary. However with donations and support from people like you, we can make that a reality together. While you may not be inside the classroom each day, your presence certainly is!
We have already begun to use some of the materials. The books have been a huge hit and I am just and so excited to do even more when we have our Olympics! Thank you so much for helping make education fun and exciting. Thank you for your support and encouragement and thank you for being a champion for public education!”

Funded Aug 2, 2023Back to school each year comes with its challenges because each group of students is unique and different.
Their needs change from year and with that teachers need to be flexible with their resources. While we are often provided a baseline, since each year is different, each lesson needs to be adjusted.
Your generosity has allowed that to happen. The resources purchased at Teachers Pay Teachers are engaging and appropriate and help not only support the curriculum but bring it to life.
Thank you for your continued support as it has an impact on a daily basic for both my teaching and student learning.”

Funded Sep 6, 2022Thank you once again for helping my classroom this year. This project goes a long way to help keep our busy classroom organized and accessible. This year we are using a new reading program. With that comes the need for new books, and hundreds and hundreds of papers. Trying to find a place where these items are on hand, accessible and also organized becomes quite the challenge.
The items in this project have helped me sort and organize each book and the activities for each month so not only are they easily accessible, they are aesthetically pleasing in the classroom setting. Thank you again for supporting teachers and public schools.”

Funded May 17, 2022I never know how to truly thank you properly. If I could say thank you for every single cent I would.
This donation allows me to restructure and innovate in my classroom. I have been teaching for 20 years, the past 7 of those in my current grade. that allows me the benefit to know what my students needs are academically and developmentally. However as times change so do students. The unique thing about teaching is that every single year is different because even with the similarities each child is unique.
This gift allows me to reinvent and meet students needs as they develop. You are doing that, you are part of helping students succeed and without your help I couldn't do it.
Thank you for being a public education supporter. Thank you for being a teacher and student supporter. But more than anything thank you for supporting me and my work”

Funded Aug 13, 2021Thank you so much for your generosity. I can't explain how much it means to my students and I.
The carpet squares are being used every single day. The kids love that they each have their own very special spot to sit when it's time to read.
The teachers pay teacher gift card had been invaluable. The students absolutely love the think outside the box activities and I love watching them as they grow and expand their minds. I also recently purchased a themed writing project with the donation and the students are cheering when it is writing time because of how much they love it. This is all possible because of you and your generous donation. Thanks is not enough to explain how meaningful it is. Thank you so very much from me and 20 little minds that benefit this year and the many years to come because of you.”

Funded Dec 1, 2020EVERY. SINGLE. DAY. That is how often I am grateful for our "recess boxes." Though this unique year and return to school has been different than any other, the need of children to learn through hands on play, is still essential you have given them that.
Every day the students use their recess boxes. They have boosted their creativity and even though they have to be at a distance I have watched them use the materials in the boxes to play "together." I love watching them find unique ways to use the toys and materials.
I can't thank you enough for making this possible and being a part of my students lives. I feel enormous gratitude for your generosity and want you to know that not only have you impacted me but every one of the students on a daily basis. You are a true champion of education and I hope you know how important your impact has traveled.”
