  • Math is Fun!

    Funded Aug 9, 2022

    Thank you very much for your generous donation! The students are very happy with the materials that we received. Everyday we are using the dry erase white boards! It gives the students more room to complete their work. The students now each have their own and do not have to share. It makes our classroom run smoothly. They also truly enjoy using the multiplication games to help them review their skills. They look forward to when they can use it! It has helped them improve their multiplication skills! Thank you very much for all of the donations.”

  • Hybrid School Year!

    Funded Dec 14, 2020

    Thank you very much for helping out my classroom! As you can imagine this school year is unlike any other school year that we have experienced. Now more than ever, technology in our classroom is essential. Receiving a new iPad for our classroom has made our school year a bit easier. The more technology that we have the better it is for my students. My students love using the iPad and are always excited for new materials in the classroom. It makes their learning experience better and that is the most important thing! Thank you.”

  • 4th Grade Classroom Materials

    Funded Apr 7, 2019

    Thank you very much for donating to our classroom! The supplies that we received was awesome. I am very lucky to be able to supply these materials for my students. From cushion seats to organizational baskets our students are utilizing all of the materials. Our classroom has become more organized and the students are able to access materials that they need. Without these tools our classroom would not be able to be setup the way that it is. My students are loving it all and we are putting everything to great use.

    Thank you again!”

  • New Chairs!

    Funded Mar 15, 2017

    Thank you so much for donating! The chairs are perfect for our classroom! The students absolutely love them. The students were super excited when they walked into the classroom and saw the colorful chairs by the table. The students enjoy using the chairs and always want to sit in them. When the students are happy and excited it is a better learning environment for them. Chairs make a difference! Thank you for being so very generous with your donation! It will leave a great impact on my students!”

  • Help Our 4th Grade Class!

    Funded Dec 30, 2016

    You ROCK! Your seriously do. Thank you again for donating to my classroom. My students love the new tables and easel. When we first got the items the students were super super excited and couldn't wait to use it. The students still feel this way! They always want to be chosen to sit at the "bean" shaped table. It makes me laugh because honestly I did not think the students would care as much as they actually do. We use the bean shaped table and the easel everyday! These materials really benefit my students in a very positive way. I am able to teacher small group and the students are given the attention that they need!

    Thank you again! You have made a difference in my students' learn!”

    With gratitude,

    Mrs. Martinez-Starace

The materials that I am requesting will greatly benefit the students in my 4th grade ICT classroom. The small bean table will help when I work with small groups to go over strategies and when they need extra support with a subject. It will also help when I am differentiating the lesson to the students. Instead of sitting on the floor, the students will have a table to go to! Support me, support our students! The students will also greatly benefit from an easel. Have you ever tried to teach in a classroom without a chalkboard or easel? Since it is an ICT classroom, we teach in small groups often which means only 1 teacher can use the starboard. Without an easel to write on the students have trouble following along in the group. An easel will enhance the lessons for the small groups. Any donation is a great donation! Thank you!
