• Class Store Restock

  Funded Aug 14, 2024

  My students can be difficult to motivate at times. Having a store with up to date things in it they are interested in having has been s life ever. They love earning class cash and then buying things for themselves or their family members. It has been awesome to watch. Nothing from the store has gone unloved or used. Everything from the school supplies to the snacks theses kids have eaten it up! I love that I can offer them something fun to get for their good behavior. They all look forward to buying things every other Friday!”

  Funded May 20, 2024

  I want to sincerely thank you for your generous donation, which allowed us to purchase much-needed cleaning supplies for our classroom. Your contribution has helped create a clean, calm, and organized environment where my students can focus on learning.

• "Popping" Science Experiments

  Funded Oct 10, 2023

  Thank you so much for supplying my kids with these materials! They saw all the different kinds of popcorn and experiment tools come in and CAN NOT wait until we start to study thermal heat. I love showing students how radiant, convection and conduction heat work. If I can add food into ANY Science lesson I will. I know it is always going to be a crowd pleaser, and I it will be something that they remember for years to come. I love creating core school memories with my students. I hope that things like this will keep them thirsting for more information about the world around them!”

• Positive Reinforcement Store

  Funded Aug 2, 2023

  This store has been such an awesome experience for my students this year. They are excited to participate and do things in class so they can earn classroom cash. This cash allows them to purchase things from the store. Snacks and cool stickers or key chains really do motivate students! I love watching them get excited about making their purchases every other week. It has also been fun for me to watch them decide how they want to spend their money or save it. Many of them have been saving for the big ticket items. It's almost like a badge of pride when they earn a snack and get to then eat it in class. Thank you so much!”

• Owl Barf? Gross!

  Funded Sep 11, 2023

  Thank you so much for providing my students with their first ever dissection lab! I cannot wait to see all of the things that an owl pellet has inside of it. Students are always amazed at how much stuff they end up getting out of a pellet. They will find all kinds of creatures inside of their pellets. Many think it is gross, but they eventually come around and realize how cool it all is! Thank you so much for helping me "jazz up" my science labs with all of my 6th graders. I am grateful for out curriclum, but I know that I will add so much to their experience!”

• Sanitized and Safe

  Funded Dec 31, 2022

  Thank you so much for helping me this year keep my classroom clean. I teach 6th grade and my students rotate between 3 classrooms. We are also in a portable that does not have access to water. It has been SO nice to have access to all the cleaning materials that I have in my classroom. From cleaning the desk to cleaning up after a bloody nose your donations have not gone to waste! They have access to all the materials on a daily basis. They know that they can use whatever they need to keep their areas clean and sanitized. It has also helped us keep our room smelling nice as well! With 6th graders, this is VERY important! Thank you again for your donating!”

• Literacy Fun

  Funded Nov 29, 2022

  Thank you so much for providing my students with fun and engaging ways to practice vocabulary. It has been such a relief to be able to play these learning games in between our groups. Sometimes small group reading can be really intense and mundane. These games have helped me break down the mundane activities that 12 year olds get tired of doing. They have really enjoyed playing them. It has even gotten to the point that students who are not in my group will sometimes ask to participate in the games even though they are not in my small group. Thank you so much!”

• Exciting Classroom Lesson Transformations

  Funded Aug 9, 2022

  This year I changed grades, from 2nd grade to 6th grade. In my previous classroom I had sweet, fun, colorful aspects to my classroom that allowed my littles to feel welcomed and have fun environment to work in. When I found out I was moving to 6th grade I wanted to make sure that my "big kids" were feeling welcomed in a more mature way. I wanted to make sure my classroom was welcoming, fun and homey for them. I was able to achieve that with your help! Thank you so much for allowing me to provide that to my ids. All year I have heard from them, and the students from others classes, that they love my classroom and love the "vibe." We have officially impressed 12 year olds, I say that's a win!”
