Restocking for Learning in PreK!
Funded Sep 7, 2022I cannot begin to thank you enough for your generous contributions to our classroom. My students were so excited when the boxes were delivered to my classroom and after we opened the boxes saw what was inside the excitement climbed even more!
I have used the Teacher's Pay Teachers gift card to purchase files for games and learning activities. The children love these new materials and are asking for more! I am able to save these files on the flashdrive and it is much easier to find things when I need them.
Painting is a favorite activity and the new paint brushes have been great! Our hallway art gallery is growing with the wonderful creations my students have painted.
Making sure my students are safe and have all they need has been difficult. Because of wonderful people like you I am able to achieve this. Thank you for your donations and for making a difference in the lives of my students.”

This classroom project was brought to life by Valhalla Foundation.Make Believe is Great in PreK!
Funded Mar 18, 2022Thank you so much for donating to our project! Our dramatic play area is a favorite in the classroom and needed a facelift! The children were so excited when the boxes arrived and couldn't wait to see what was in them. It was like Christmas morning that day!
Since putting out the new materials, there is even more desire to play in that area. Dramatic play is an important part of learning, building social skills, teaching children how to share and problem solve, and practicing how to work together. There is now a greater opportunity to do these things.
It is because of awesome people like you that I am able to offer this opportunity to my students and extend their learning. Thank you again for your generous donations!”

Funded Jan 21, 2022Thank you so much for your very generous donation to our classroom. When the boxes arrived it was like Christmas morning--the children couldn't wait to help me open them and explore what was inside!
These new resources have been placed in a specific place in the classroom that is our "exploring" area. The children can choose that area during choice time and it is full everyday, they love the challenges they find here! In this area they are able to use the STEM materials we have and explore and problem solve how to use these things.This has really helped with peer communication, teamwork and problem solving.
Our curriculum includes a unit called "Imagine it, Make it" and these resources will fit right in with that unit. We will use these resources daily but during this unit it will be more concentrated and focused on specific things like angles, ramps, height, etc.
Again, your generous contribution is greatly appreciated. It is people like you who are making a difference in the education of our students and the development of our future leaders!”

Staying Cool, Calm and Collected in PreK!
Funded Jan 21, 2022I cannot begin to thank you enough for your generous contributions to our classroom. We were so excited when the box was delivered to my classroom and after I opened the box and we saw what was inside the excitement climbed even more!
Having materials to help with fidgeting and staying calm has made a huge difference to my students. They can pick something from the shelf and hold it when we are in large group or take a few minutes to sit by the "fish" to help calm them and get themselves together if necessary. This has really helped to develop a sense of independence and calmness in the classroom. It has really made a difference in the classroom atmosphere.
These are very trying and difficult times. Making sure my students are safe and have all they need has been difficult. Because of wonderful people like you I am able to achieve this. Thank you for your donations and for making a difference in the lives of my students.”

Funded Dec 28, 2021I cannot begin to thank you enough for your generous contributions to our classroom. We were so excited when the box was delivered to my classroom and after I opened the box and we saw what was inside the excitement climbed even more!
Having a place to keep their supplies has made a huge difference to my students. They can find things easily and get the manipulatives they want to use for activities. After using these, they can put everything away and clean up after themselves. This has really helped to develop a sense of independence and taught them responsibility for the items in the classroom. It really helps keep everything organized and safe.

Learning Through Play for Special Learners in Pre-K!
Funded Dec 2, 2021I cannot begin to thank you enough for your generous contributions to our classroom. My students were so excited when the boxes were delivered to my classroom and after we opened the boxes saw what was inside the excitement climbed even more!
My special needs students were thrilled to have toys and items that they could use. Many of our other toys and manipulatives were beyond their capabilities so having things they could use and enjoy has been a game changer. It has also built relationships among all the students as the typical students also enjoy using these items and everyone works and plays together.
I have used the Teacher's Pay Teachers gift card to purchase files for games and learning activities. The children love these new materials and are asking for more! This will help build the basic skills needed in all students.
