  • iPad To Achieve!!

    Funded Jun 25, 2013

    Technology is the key to engaging and keeping students interested in the classroom. Thanks to wonderful donors like yourself, this was made possible in my classroom. Integrating the iPad throughout the lesson has captivated the students attention. They are more active, engaged, and motivated while participating in the lesson.

    Having the iPad in the classroom has made it possible for me to target the different learning modalities including visual, auditory, and kinesthetic. With the iPad the students have access to an assortment of applications that can accommodate their specific needs.

    Your donation has given my students the opportunity to meet their academic needs and learning styles in order to meet the state standards. Donors like you make it possible for students to become successful in their academic career and life. We are grateful for your donation and for being such a wonderful donor.”

  • iLearn Through iPad

    Funded Jul 9, 2013

    An iPad provides hands on learning experiences through the many applications available. I have many different levels of learning disabilities from low to high that need to be addressed through differentiated learning to help all of my students become successful learners. The use of an iPad allows learning to be more interactive, fun, and engaging for all my students. Having and using an iPad changed the lives of my students immensely. This project broadened their learning opportunities within the classroom.

    My students are more engaged when they are doing their research papers. They have improved in their Mathematics, ELA, and Writing skills. Your donation made it possible for my students, parents, and myself to be all on the same page with academics and behavior with the Class Dojo application.

    Thank you so much for your donation we appreciate it.”

  • Supplies for a New School Year!!!

    Funded Jun 13, 2013

    My students were thrilled to receive the supplies for this school year. Many of them were unable to purchase basic school supplies. Opening the package and seeing the supplies donate to the class has made their day. They were excited to know that they have the material needed for a great start.

    The students are prepare for class with their composition notebooks and pencils that was donated to us by you. No child is left behind or feel left out because they don't have the materials needed. The Time Tracker Visual Timer and Clock has proved to be a great tool in my classroom. This keep the students on track of how much time they have left to finish the task. The answer buzzers makes learning fun and engaging.

    With these basic supplies you gave my students a jump start in the right direction. We are truly thankful for your donation.”

  • Footprints of Language!

    Funded Jun 5, 2011

    We are so grateful for your donations. By funding this project you have impacted my students learning in a positive way. You have given them the tools necessary to improve academically. We use the alphabet activity kit and the numbers and counting theme boxes everyday. We use them to learn and recognize their letters and numbers, to improve in their writing skills, and mathematical skills. Through the use of these theme boxes my students have improved in their reading, writing, and math.

    Our school is facing a budget shortfall and they canceled the teacher's choice, so without your help my students wouldn't have receive the vital resources that they needed. The students I serve face many challenges with their language.These materials provided the hands-on approach to learning that my student needs.

    Because of your generosity my students are equipped with the appropriate tools to enable learning in a hands on creative way. Thank you for supporting our education.”

  • Charting Our Way To Success!

    Funded Sep 9, 2010

    My students and I can't fully express our gratitude and excitement, thanks for your donation to our project. The Classic Birch Store It All Teaching Center has made the lessons come alive for the students. The students enjoy using the felt portion of the center. We have used it to help us identify numbers and during story time. We use the white erase board to practice our writing. With the additional storage space we are able to house our puzzles. The slotted compartments for the big books makes it accessible to each of the students in my class.

    The Teaching Center is a great asset to our classroom. It will be used not only with my current students but with my future students as well.

    It warms my heart to see donors like you who wants to support and improve the educational opportunities. Once again thank you.”

My class has a range of different disabilities. These students learn best with hands-on material as well as enlarged picture symbols. In need to be able to differentiate the lesson to fit each of their individual needs. The great part is that this easel is mobile so I can move it directly in front of my students who are in wheel chairs.
