Supplies for success!
Funded Sep 16, 2020Thank you so much for these materials. We are all going through a very difficult time right now and these materials are a morale booster for my students. When I first told them of the materials they were getting, they were so excited to! A lot of them did not grab their materials from their classroom and did not have any to start off the academic year.
These materials came right on time, it was towards the end of first semester. Now they had something to look forward to after the holidays. They are excited to use their new clipboards and show their answers on screen. We are currently working on writing and will focus on art as well.
Once again, these could not have at a better time. Thank you so much!”

Funded Mar 27, 2018Thank you so much for your donation! My students have benefited so much from this project. First, their reactions to new makers and a plethora supply of paint was amazing. They were super excited to begin their art assignments.
During small groups, I was able to use the text bookmarks to better scaffold difficult concepts for my students. Once they had labeled evidence in their text, they were able to go back and find the main idea of their books with the help of the details they had supported. More importantly, the students were helping each other! Students were reading with one another and helping each other place their text bookmarks.
The reading and writing strategy book is going to help me plan for my small groups and how to better differentiate for my students. Both books are full of wonderful graphic organizers and activities I am going to try with my class. Once again, thank you so much for your amazing donation!”

Funded Aug 1, 2017Thank you so much for your generous gifts! My students love using their whiteboards during Math, ELA, ELD , Art and Science. It has helped us realized that mistakes are not a huge impediment that we can simply erase and try again!
When I first introduced the whiteboard to my students they were all so very excited. Some of them could not believe they were going to be able to keep them in their desks all year long! These individual whiteboards and markers have definitely increased my students ability to collaborate with one another more. Moreover, students are not afraid to try multiple problems because they love writing on their whiteboards.
My students and I plan on using these whiteboards for every content area. It is their own space where they can think and write before anything has to become more permanent. My next steps are for them to do more PBL that involve STEAM. I am not sure of what they are going to do, but I cannot wait to see what are of their hard work looks like. We are forever grateful and appreciate everyday what you have done for us.”
