Our School's Family Fun Day
Funded Dec 15, 2022My students were so funny with every delivery and box that I brought into my classroom because they were intrigued and excited about what each new item could be. The educational activities and games were used for a family game night so my personal students were more motivated to come with their families.
As you can see through the pictures, our family game night turnout was incredible. There may have been about 250 people that attended and every child/ family went home with at least one game! Plus, many of the games were educational (extra bonus).
Thank you so much for your support- we were truly able to bring so many families together. Many students came in the following days to tell us how they played their new games with their siblings, cousins, parents, etc. They also were very enthusiastic when they said "my mom won but that is okay because she had more apples than me so she deserved to win."”
With gratitude,

Teachers Who Love Teaching, Teach Children to Love Learning
Funded Feb 21, 2017Thank you so much for your donation and support of our classroom. We have gotten a lot of use out of all the materials that you generously donated including the seat cushions, sight word boards, and word fans.
My students were so excited when they saw our new materials. Before the packaging was even opened, they were so intrigued to see what they got. I knew they would be very excited about the seat cushions so I anticipated "chaos" and chatter! I let them sit on the cushions on the rug and at their seats so it was exciting seeing them choose their color and bring them back and forth to the rug. The new rule is whatever color you choose in the morning is the color you stick with all day! They are also funny when it comes to the sight word boards. I assumed that my high students wouldn't need to use them but OH MY GOODNESS they get jealous if they don't get a chance to use them along with everyone else. The sight word boards also make them excited to read the words themselves then check it by clicking the board and hearing the word. Finally, the word fans are definitely improving their writing. They are excited to use the synonyms and find new words to use in their writing.
We just finished our NYS math test which was tough but they worked hard and I'm proud of each of them. Everything that was donated has improved their education and I am greatly thankful . My class and I thank you!”
