  • Resources for Remote Learning

    Funded Dec 31, 2020

    This donation has helped me tremendously with preparing resources and planning for my google classroom. The gift card I received for Teachers pay Teachers was so helpful to support my digital classroom. I was able to purchased visual supports for my English Language Learners and resources for all my students. I have been created powerpoint slides so a lot of resources I purchased helped me add towards my slide shows and worksheets in digital form. This donation was so generous and really helped support my teaching this year during remote learning. Thank you so much!”

  • Flexible Seating for Fidgety First Graders!

    Funded Oct 14, 2019

    I want to thank you from the bottom of my heart for granting my project. Providing flexible seating was one of my goals this year and you helped me achieve that goal. I have noticed a major shift in my students motivation and eagerness to learn because of my different seating options. My students are given choices and flexible options for seating. My students now have numerous options fof seating in our classroom and it differs depending on small group, partnerships and independent practice. I am so grateful for your generous donation. My students are equally thankful and full of gratitude.”

  • Math Tool Kits for the Future Mathematicians of the World!

    Funded Oct 14, 2019

    Thank you so much for making math fun again for my 1st graders. I have never seen them so eager to use math tools and want to use their toolkits. Everything is so organized and easy to use, which I love. They just love that they can use hands on tools to help them problem solve.

    When my 1st graders first saw their math toolkits they thought it was so neat that they came in little cases. They look like little brief cases. They loved that they each had their very own toolkit and that they had everything they needed. I gave everyone a number for each so they could go and get their toolkit when they need it. They love the accessibility and support it provides them.

    I am so thankful for your generous donation. It is so important that my students are given the right tools to help support their mathematical thinking and problem solving. I am very fortunate that you could help me provide my stud

    ents with these wonderful tools. Thank you very much!”

  • Help Me Make Kindergarten Fun and Engaging!

    Funded Aug 31, 2017

    Your contribution has made a tremendous impact in my classroom. The kids love going to the listening center and listening to the emergent books on tape. They love practicing their letters using the centers, such as puzzles and play do center.

    The first time I introduced the literacy centers to them they had the biggest smiles I had ever seen. To them, I was just showing them games, but what they don't realize is how much learning they are doing because they are too busy having fun. I love that I have been able to create the fun and engaging kindergarten classroom I was dreaming about. Your donations have not only positively effected their learning but has improved their behaviors. They are so motivated by these resources and it helps manage positive behaviors.

    I will definitely continue to use these resources through out the year and plan to use them in the years to come for my future kindergarten classes. I have found ways to build upon these centers and modify them according different learning styles and abilities. I can not thank you enough for your contributions and know that it has made such an impact on my students.”

This project will allow me to provide my students will various materials that will not only facilitate their educational growth, but provide an engaging and fun learning environment. These materials will help me to create centers and areas of the room where my students can practice concepts and skills on their own and with their classmates. Help me make Kindergarten fun again! Help me provide my students with differentiated activities that can appeal to multiple learning styles, such as tactile, auditory and visual. Every student has different needs and learning styles. Therefore, it is important to provide my students with a variety of centers that cater to their interests and learning styles. For example, Play-Doh will be used as a center to reinforce letter formation, number formation and shapes. Another center will use books on audio CD's, where students can hear stories read aloud to them and they can listen for fluency and expression. In addition, these materials can help support students that have learning disabilities and are English Language Learners. My students are diverse and unique in their own way and that is why they need a multitude of activities that can cater to their individual needs.
