  • Leveled Books

    Funded Jun 3, 2023

    Thank you so much for donating to my class project. Books are such a wonderful thing to have in the classroom. It opens a whole new world of adventures for students, especially if they are going through hard times in their lives. Books allow them to get away to a save place for moments at a time. It also helps them make progress in school and meet their goals. My students love to read and like to choose their own books that interest them. Additionally, I think they like to see different characters that are more like them. I hope these books will do that for them. Reading books increases your knowledge, enhances your inventiveness, and builds your vocabulary. Thank you so much for your contribution to my classroom and students."”

  • Leveled Readers

    Funded Nov 30, 2022

    Thank you so much for your continued support for my classroom. Books are such a wonderful item to have in the classroom and as a language arts teachers books are a necessity. I try to share my love of reading with my students and it helps to have a variety of books for them to choose from. Everyone has different likes and dislikes, so having the opportunity to choose a book that you like means all the world to a child. Books will take you on many adventures and to have these adventures you need to have lots of different books. My students appreciate these so much and we can't wait to travel to many different places. Thank you again from the bottom of my heart.”

  • Organizational Containers

    Funded Feb 18, 2022

    I want to thank you for your generous donations to our class. The materials have greatly helped in organizing our classroom and allows for a more effective learning environment. The pouches are being used to store students' individual writing notebooks, sight word pouches, poetry folders, and any other materials. When given the pouches the students were excited to have their own pouch to store their materials. This has allowed for a more efficient distribution of materials, which allows for the classroom to be more effective and productive. The bins have also been awesome in helping keep books and other supplies organized.

    I want to again thank you for your generous support of our class. Having an organized classroom just allows for the small things to run smoother.”

    With gratitude,

    Ms. Hissom

A well-organized classroom sends a clear and positive message to students: This room was created for you, with your specific needs in mind, because you and your learning are important. Without it, even a generously sized room can diminish students' sense of ease and autonomy and limit their learning. Staying organized is the key to a successful classroom. Center activities have small materials that are used often in the classroom, it helps to store them in colored tubs or containers to make them easy to access. Adding labels helps the students know clearly where the items are, and where to put them back.
