  • Reading Corner Refresh

    Funded Aug 31, 2024

    Thank you so much for supporting my Reading Corner Refresh project. Since receiving the new bean bag chairs and comfy pillows, more of my students are able to visit and share in the reading corner.

    My class is so excited to read! I love how they'll ask to read in the reading corner whenever I tell them to grab a book. I even have a few who ask to visit the reading corner as soon as they unpack their backpacks in the morning.

    I am so excited to foster a love of reading in my classroom. As you know, reading is an amazing adventure and I'm so fortunate to have your support.

    Thank you again for supporting my class and educators everywhere! You're the best!”

  • STEM Boxes + Friends = Cooperation and Engagement!

    Funded Aug 15, 2023

    I am so excited to let you know how amazing your gifts have turned out. My students absolutely love working with the stem boxes provided by you.

    Each morning, after finishing the usual morning routine activities, students are encouraged to grab a box and explore something fun. It is so refreshing to see them get organized quickly so they can explore with friends.

    In addition, the kind cooperation my students are showing to each other makes me smile! They work together to create vehicles, buildings, jewelry, and so much more. This is way better then students staring at computer screens each morning.

    Thank you again for your generosity.”

  • Reinventing the Reading Corner

    Funded Dec 25, 2022

    Thank you so much for your most generous gift! Since receiving the materials, my students have enjoyed reading in the reading corner even more. The bean bag chairs are easily carried so students can move to different parts of the classroom to read wherever they're most comfortable.

    The carpets are so colorful, they give the reading area a more home-like feeling. My students are able to read around the room in a cozy way.

    It is so exciting to watch them grow as readers together. On any given day, partners grab bean bags and cushions and read together. I love hearing their reading voices full of expression and joy. This is due to your generosity!”

    Mrs. Weber

  • Getting Organized for Great Reading

    Funded Dec 4, 2022

    Thank you for donating to my project. Since receiving the materials, students have become more organized. The ability to purchase well-developed resources from Teachers Pay Teachers has allowed me to assist my students with organizing the information annotated in their reading books. The highlighters help students find and annotate the most important details and story elements in the texts they're reading. The folders allow students to store all of their written materials so they are better prepared for class each day. Thank you again for your support of teachers and students everywhere! You're the best!”

  • Successful Small Group Stations

    Funded Nov 13, 2022

    Thank you so much for funding this project. My students enjoy working with the materials I was able to purchase thanks to your generous support. They particularly love the crayons and drawing paper they use to show their comprehension of literature read in whole group lessons. The headphone converters are a major game changer for required technology reading programs. I no longer have students complain of "fuzzy" audio. Finally, the new versatile phonics books help my early readers improve their skills in game-type practice.

    I couldn't do what I do each day without the support of amazing people like you. Thank you again!”

  • Stay Calm and Keep Reading!

    Funded Aug 13, 2022

    Thank you so much for supporting my project. Since receiving the requested items, my reading corner has become super popular. The students love reading with each other and sharing materials. The bean bag chairs allow students to sit together around the classroom and buddy read. They can fit those chairs in the smallest places. The different sizes of the flower cushions make it easier for students to read together in small groups as well. I am so excited to see the love of reading grow in each student since your support helped upgrade my reading corner. Thank you again for helping me instill the love of reading in this sweet group of third graders.”

  • Clearing the Air in the Classroom

    Funded Mar 11, 2021

    Thank you so much for supporting my air purifier project. The addition of the clean air purifiers has really helped us "breathe easier" during the pandemic. The quiet design of the equipment allows us to have clean air without interruption of learning in person or in a virtual setting. They're so quiet, I have to put a post-it note by the door to remember to turn them off at the end of the day!

    As we headed back to the building for hybrid learning, students, parents, and teachers were concerned about safety. Having two air purifiers in the classroom helps to alleviate some of these concerns.

    Thank you again for helping my class ease back into in person learning. And, thank you so much for your support of educators everywhere.”

  • Do You See What I'm Projecting?

    Funded Jan 6, 2021

    Thank you so much for supporting my projector project. Using the projector in a hybrid setting has been a real "game-changer". The students in the building and I are able to clearly see the students in the zoom meeting. I am able to stand in front of the in person learners in the classroom while the zoom learners are clearly projected on a screen in the back of the room. All students feel as if they are in one big class instead of in separate groups.

    With hybrid learning, students have had some difficulty feeling like they're one cohesive class. The visual provided by the projector has helped all students feel like they are a part of the class no matter whether they are virtual or in person learners.

    Thank you again for your support of my classroom and educators everywhere.”

  • Everyone Wants to Be Heard!

    Funded Dec 28, 2020

    Thank you so much for your generous donation to this project. The addition of microphones throughout my classroom has benefitted our return to in person learning in a hybrid model. Students in the zoom classroom can clearly hear the students in the building. We do not have to worry about an echoing sound that usually occurs when individuals unmute during a zoom session.

    This year has been such a challenge and the students have worked hard to maintain friendships in a virtual setting. Being able to clearly hear others when having a group discussion makes collaboration so much better.

    Thank you again for your support of my classroom and of educators everywhere.”

    Mrs. Weber

The colorful magazines provided by the subscription to Time for Kids will motivate students to read nonfiction texts. The digital subscription will allow me to enhance my instruction by using the many resources offered, including whole group lessons on the interactive whiteboard. Students will be able to practice their reading skills using both print and digital materials. Students will have the opportunity to practice their reading skills with parents and siblings weekly when they take their magazines home. This will allow the project to reach more than just the students in my class. The confidence gained by sharing with family members is priceless!
