Super Supplies
Funded Mar 28, 2025Thank you so much for your donations and helping me get this project funded for my students! We will use the headphones and computer mice every day in our classroom! And the pencils and pencil sharpeners are crucial to our learning! The water feature and Teachers Pay Teachers gift card will also help me provide engaging lessons and a calm environment to learn in!”

Funded Mar 3, 2025Thank you so much for funding the project. My students' eyes lit up when they saw all of the new books we got for our classroom library. They were snatched up very quickly and I know they will be reread by many students over the years. I even had students from another classroom come in and ask to borrow some of these amazing books. The most important thing to improve students' reading skills is to let the read! These books will allow that to happen.
I also want to thank you for getting us a new projector screen. Now my students can actually see what I am projecting! It is much clearer on this new screen and it was installed up a little higher so it's easier for them to see. It is something we use every day during almost every lesson. The swivel chair I got to go with it is smaller than my last one and helps ensure that I am not in the way of the screen.
Thank you for helping give my students the tools we need to learn and the books we need to make it more fun.”

This classroom project was brought to life by Panda Cares.Welcome to the New Year!
Funded Sep 7, 2024I want to sincerely thank you for helping me provide essential tools for my students this school year. The computer mice and the pencils are used EVERY day in our classroom! Without them we would not be able to function as learners. I'm sure I will need more pencils by Christmas!
The materials for Capture the Flag have brought so much joy to our class! We have enjoyed playing the game several times. The cones, flags and wrist bracelets have made it easier for us to know which team we are on and where the boundaries are on the field. My students ask me at least twice a week when we will be able to play again! Having fun together is important in building a strong classroom community.”

Funded Aug 15, 2023I want to thank you all again for contributing to my project for a new classroom rug. My students and I totally love it! It has given us a cozy place to hold our classroom meetings, a space where we can play games and of course lounge around during our read-to-self time!
The rug is also helping us learn how to take care of nice, new things. Every day after recess they come in with muddy feet and we are all learning that the mud does not belong on the new rug. So now they take turns vacuuming it so that it stays nice and clean for all of us to enjoy.”

Funded Apr 27, 2023Thank you so much for donating to my "Let's End Strong" project! My students absolutely loved getting fidgets for their end of the year present! We had a wonderful last day and enjoyed being together.
I also really appreciate helping me fund several copies of the book "Confessions of a Secret Bully." I read this book every year to help teach my students some important tools to help them deal with bullying. First we read the first book in the series, "My Secret Bully," about a girl whose friend starts to bully her.
Then we dive into "Confessions of a Secret Bully," which talks about things from the bully's perspective and offers lots of advice and tools for my students to use to help them when they feel they are being bullied! It's a really powerful book and I'm so glad I have several copies to share!”

Graphic Novel Bonanza
Funded Mar 30, 2023I can't thank you enough for donating to this project. Adding more graphic novels to my classroom library was a wonderful thing. The new books just flew off the shelves! For some of the new titles we even had to create a waiting list because so many students wanted to read them!
It is always very heartwarming to see my students so engaged in reading! I try to let them do choice reading for about 30 minutes a day and many students say it is their favorite part of the school day! Keeping up with all of the new titles that come out every year is challenging and expensive! So I really appreciate your help in allowing me to share these books with my students.”

Funded Oct 18, 2022I have discovered that if you do indeed "Give A Student A Mouse" they will eventually break it! So thank you so much for allowing me to replenish my supply of mice for my students this year. Having a mouse makes it so much easier for them to cut and paste and scroll through website, instead of getting frustrated by using the Chromebook trackpad!
I also want to thank you very much for allowing me to purchase an easel that will hold chart paper as well as act as a magnetic white board. We have a new reading curriculum this year that requires creating a lot of anchor charts, so now I have the capability of doing that while I am still projecting images onto my bigger whiteboard/chalkboard.
Once again, I couldn't be an effective teacher if it wasn't for the support from donors like you!”

Funded Aug 10, 2022I can't thank you enough for helping me to create a classroom library that is fun and inviting to my students. I have thousands of books and now I have some beautiful bookshelves to put all of those books on! They really fit into my classroom and are very sturdy. They are holding hundreds of pounds of books!
I also want to thank you for allowing me to buy some stickers to give out as rewards this year. My students are obsessed with stickers and it takes them forever to choose which one they want. I even put them in a photo album so they would be easier to look through.
The multiplication stickers are also coming in handy on a DAILY basis. It really helps the kids when we are doing multi-digit multiplication.”

Funded May 4, 2022I can't thank you all enough for helping to support my class. We had a great end of year experience thanks to your generous donations.
My class is obsessed with fidgets! So being able to give each students one of them on the last day of school was really special. They loved the pop-its and the rubiks cubes and the spinners and all of the cool fidgets I was able to purchase thanks to your generosity.
It has also been nice to replenish my headphones and mice because after this very tough school year many of my original supply has been broken. So it has been great to be able to hand out new headphones and mice to my students.
Thank you again for all of your support!”

Funded Mar 16, 2022I can't thank you enough for helping me to provide these games to my students. The last couple of years have been tough on all of us and I realized that many of my students were having trouble cooperating with each other, so I decided to try getting them to play games together!
They are learning cooperation, sportsmanship and even some educational elements like the coordinate plane, how to tell time and even practicing their addition, subtraction, multiplication and division.
it is so fun to hear them working together and having fun at the same time. We all look forward to our game days!”
