  • Safety First

    Funded Apr 1, 2025

    Wow! Thank you so much for taking safety as seriously as I do! The kids won’t know much but I will have the peace of mind that we will be taken care of if there was an emergency. I will keep one in our bug out bag we keep in class!”

    With gratitude,

    Mr. Phillips

  • Don’t forget…

    Funded Nov 14, 2024

    Wow, thank you so much for supporting my class. It literally takes a village! The external hard drive and laminator make my life as a Kindergarten Teacher much more efficient. The hard drive has been used to store and back up important documents and information. I am more organized with an ample supple of storage space.

    As you may or may not know, a Kindergarten class can be rough on materials, especially paper. The laminator has been used to help save my materials such as laminating high use Student vocabulary cards. Thank again from Room 8!”

    With gratitude,

    Mr. Phillips

    This classroom project was brought to life by Young Sheldon and one other donor.
  • Paper or Plastic

    Funded Sep 18, 2024

    Wow, I cant believe it, thank you so much for donating to my Classroom project! We will have paper for the next few School years. The best part is that I dont have to pull paper from the school anymore for my copies. I am self-sufficient now. The Students love being able to grab a fresh piece of white paper to draught down ideas. As you may know, writing is a very important concept for Kindergartners to learn so having extra paper to make mistakes and explore on is great for their development. Thank you again!”

    With gratitude,

    Mr. Phillips

    This classroom project was brought to life by Charles Schwab Foundation and 2 other donors.
  • Resupply Inbound

    Funded Sep 17, 2024

    Wow, thank you so much for donating to our classroom! The students love their chairs for their social emotional development center. There are enough for each Student to have their own chair. The Play Dough has been used many different ways so far, including, letter formation, number formation, and even creating 2 dimensional shapes. Lastly, the fidget toys have been a great incentive for Students to remain following the rules and expectations of the classroom. These things in conjunction are a great addition to my class!”

    With gratitude,

    Mr. Phillips

Apple products are becoming a necessity in modern classrooms. My classroom is no different. Having a tablet in the classroom will not only give my students access to technology, but it will also open the door to educational learning apps. The learning games will tone their fine motor skills which is a MUST in Kindergarten. My students will be able to visit places they have never seen before and peek into stories they've only read. A color printer will match up well with our thematic "color" days in kindergarten. These students are eager and willing to learn in as many different ways as possible.
