  • Extra Extra Read All About It!

    Funded Sep 18, 2024

    Thank you for the scholastic donation. These magazines have been enhancing our classes educational experiences in countless ways. Every magazine takes our children on an adventure with the amazing stories, pictures and activities. Thank you so much for your generous donation! The students of class K031 love reading and learning all about the world through scholastic news! The students worked on various projects while implementing the information they learned through the scholastic articles. We have been so honored as a class to be given this opportunity to read and expand their knowledge. As a class we wanted to extend the biggest thank you for allowing us to read these amazing scholastic articles you have continued to donate to us throughout these last couple of months. We could not be more grateful! Thank you from the bottom of our hearts!”

  • Supplies, Supplies Oh My!

    Funded Jan 5, 2024

    I am so very grateful to you for you helping me help my students. When I first submitted my proposal, I knew that some of my students would not be able to afford their supplies. But with the economy the way it is this year, it has been extremely tough on some of my students and their families. Though some of my students brought some of their supplies, this year only seven of my students brought all of the supplies on the school supply list. Even though I am saying thank you from the bottom of my heart, I don't think just my thanks can let you know how much your generosity really means. It means a lot. Thank you.”

    Funded Sep 17, 2020

    Thank you so much for your generosity. The original project with the books were out of stock however, I was able to order sports equipment to give to the students in our school for our holiday baskets! The students were so excited! It was such a wonderful thing to do during this rough time for our awesome students. Thank you again for fulfilling my requests and giving our students something to smile about during these times. You truly put a smile on each students face. Thank you again and continue to stay healthy and safe during these times.”

  • A Sharp Pencil Allows Creativity To Flow!!

    Funded Nov 8, 2019

    Thank you so much for providing my wonderful class pencils, pencil cases and a pencil sharpener. It has helped so much in having my class stay organized especially during writing time. It was wonderful for my students to have a pencil case to use. They were so excited to each get their own. The markers have helped with making charts and the students being able to have a set of markers for each group. We can not thank you enough for helping our class. We hope you all are staying safe during this time.”

The scholastic news will be passed out weekly to my students. We will have a chance to read it as a class and have discussions about topics being covered. My students will have a chance to review the information independently and in partnerships. The articles read in scholastic news will help them to with their comprehension. Many students in my classroom can not afford to purchase Scholastic News. This will definitely go along way by helping them in the 2nd grade. Thank you so much for your support! We all really appreciate it! Help me give real life articles to my students!
