Carpet Wars!
Funded Jul 8, 2022I cannot express my appreciation for your donations! My students are going to love their new rug. Thank you, thank you, thank you! Classroom comfort is essential to students being able to relax and learn and not be distracted by stains or spots(Especially in K where they notice EVERYTHING)
Thank you again for your generosity!”
With gratitude,
Mrs. S.
Kinder Stars Reach New Heights With Updated Technology!
Funded Feb 2, 2019Thank you so much for your thoughtful donations to my project. My students LOVE working on the tablets to navigate educational websites and apps. The most popular app they use helps them to read AND comprehend texts. Their reading levels have soared since the introduction of these devices.
Several of my students do not have access to this type of technology at home and it is exciting to see them navigate learning through the tablets(They are FAST learners!) Again, your kindness and thoughtfulness are much appreciated by myself but particularly my students. They ask all the time who helped us get the tablets, I always tell them people with really BIG hearts that want to see them succeed in school!”
With gratitude,
Mrs. S.
This classroom project was brought to life by Verizon and 10 other donors.Fabulous First Grade Friends!
Funded Nov 20, 2015I want to take the time to thank you for your generosity! The impact that your donations have made on my class are amazing. It was right before the holidays that we received word that our project had been funded. It was an amazing feeling to be able to tell my class that after our jump from 18 to 32 students, we would finally have some much needed supplies! The cheers were deafening and the looks of joy on their faces made me cry.
Before your donations, we were using two cardboard, makeshift mailboxes kept together with duct tape. Now we have an amazing wooden mailbox that every folders and journal fits into. We also have enough center games to keep students occupied during small group instruction times.
I think the biggest impact was our 3 ring binders. The students now have a place to keep all of their small group/guided reading work together. One of the sweetest moments was a little girl, who often has trouble keeping track of her work, came to me and said. "Mrs. S. I am so happy!! I haven't lost any of my work since I got my binder!!" To me, the one things that made the most impact is the supplies. You may know, a great deal of pencils and crayons are purchased by the teacher. First graders seem to lose their supplies as fast as they get them so to have so many pencils and crayons at their disposal is an amazing feeling. To not have to tell them, they have to "make due" until the next time I can buy them more supplies makes my heart happy!
Words really cannot express how we appreciate your generosity!!”

Mrs. S.
