  • A Vacuum to Help Keep Our Classroom Clean!

    Funded Jul 5, 2024

    Thank you for this very generous donation to our classroom!

    We recently received 2 brand new rugs (also thanks to your generosity), and having this vacuum to keep our rugs clean is just so amazing!

    When it arrived, my students were so excited, they wanted to use it right away!

    I explained it had to charge first, and

    that this vacuum is very expensive, and it cannot be used as a toy. and that we have to take care of it so it can last for years to come!

    Since we use our rugs everyday for lessons the rugs do get dirty so now i have the ability to keep our rugs clean and looking like new!

    Thank you again for being so very generous and giving my class this amazing gift!

    I truly appreciate it and will never forget your generosity!”

    With gratitude,

    Mrs. Doscas

  • Clean Colorful Carpets!

    Funded May 7, 2024

    Thank you, Thank You, Thank You for funding our project!!!!

    We were so excited to receive our new materials!!!

    We now have 2 brand new classroom carpets to work on for whole class learning and for our small groups, and 2 brand new polka dot bins to help us stay organized!

    It was so exciting for us to receive these "gifts" to help keep our learning fun and exciting!

    We discussed "generosity and gratitude."

    One of our students said "The people that bought these things for us don't even know us, why would they buy these things for us"?

    I explained some people are generous even to people they don't know, sometimes if people have a little extra money they want to help other people because it makes them happy to share and help us."

    Our class decided it's like we made a wish and it came true!

    Thank you for making our wish come true!

    Sending out Love from class 201! ❤️”

  • Ready to Read!

    Funded Jan 1, 2022

    Thank you for your very generous donation to our class!!! My students were so excited when the books arrived.

    When I started the project I asked each of my reading groups to choose some chapter books they were interested in, so that is how we selected the books for our donors choose project. Having a discussion about which books my students were interested in reading has helped to create excitement about reading time!

    They were so excited when the carton arrived

    and now can't wait each day for reading group time! Thank you again for helping me give my students books they personally selected, and helping me spark their interest to read! Your donation has made reading group time full of fun!”

  • Rolling Learning Cart!

    Funded Sep 14, 2021

    Thank you for helping me and my students!

    We were so excited to receive our new easel and fresh set of markers and chart paper!

    Our old easel had a broken wheel which made it difficult to roll around the room, and after writing on it, it did not wipe clean. To have the new white board /easel has made our day to day learning so much easier! Because of covid it was delayed, but it was worth the wait!

    When the students came in and saw it, they were so excited! They love that I can roll it closer to them so they can see what is on the board much easier, they love that the new chart paper is like a big post-it and I can stick it anywhere in the classroom, and they especially love the variety of vibrant colors of our new markers!

    We sincerely thank you for this very generous gift!!!! Thank you from class 201!❤️”

  • Amplify Science Student Workbooks!

    Funded Oct 24, 2019

    Your very generous donation has made such a difference to my students learning!

    My students do not have to share 1 book amongst 4 people! Having the additional science books has transformed my students learning!

    The books could not have come at a better time!

    Due to Covid 19 restrictions and social distancing, the order was considerably delayed, but when we finally received it, we were thrilled!

    My students were also able to get their own copy of the student workbook which they were so happy to have!

    Thank you again for your generous donations and for making a difference in the lives of so many children!”

  • Traveling Science Classroom

    Funded Dec 31, 2018

    Thank you so much for this very generous donation!

    This "Traveling Science Cart," is reaching all my

    2nd and 3rd grade science students! With this cart I

    am able to bring all materials needed to teach science in the classroom.

    As I push into 12 different classrooms to teach science, I can

    now easily bring,; lab materials, art supplies, vocabulary

    word walls, charts, books and all science related curriculum with me!

    This cart also has a white board, which is so helpful to engage my students as

    soon as I walk in their classroom. My students are participating in instruction, as soon as I enter,

    because they can read whatever I have posted on the white board, and promptly begin!

    Due to the shortage of classroom space, we no longer have a designated science

    classroom, so this "Traveling Science Cart," gives my students the next best

    thing! Allowing my students access to all materials needed for an engaging

    organized science lesson.

    Thank you for seeing the value in this project, and for helping me give my students what they need and deserve to succeed!

    Your kindness and generosity is sincerely appreciated!”

  • Creative Kids Need Art Supplies!

    Funded Dec 10, 2018

    Thank you so much for your donation! I am so grateful

    for your generosity! My students were so happy when

    they received the new art supplies. Their faces lit up when they used the new crayons, markers, glue, and colored pencils.

    One student commented, " I love crayons with sharp points, it's

    so much easier to color in the lines." These art supplies will be well

    used, as they are available to all 2nd and 3rd grade science students.

    My students are so appreciative and deserving, thank you for

    giving them these new supplies!

    You are so very generous and caring, and really make a difference!”

Your generous donation will help our students to do research during science class, participate in interactive science programs, take online assessments, work on group projects, and participate in a coding program. I am trying to build a class set of laptops for our science students to use, which will serve over 900 students! Our students love to use computers and are so excited when they have the opportunity to do so. I am hoping to incorporate computer use into my science lessons whenever possible. We will use them on a rotating basis until we can establish a class set. Thank you for your consideration in helping our students!
