Let’s Learn with a Fun Activity Table
Funded Oct 16, 2020We received our activity table a few weeks ago and when the children saw it they went straight to it to explore it. And since then, it has been a hit in our classroom on the infant side. Our younger children have been able to explore and manipulate the gauges and glides as well as it helps them balance for our non-walkers. The children have really liked the spiral and they can move the beads around as they explore and engage in play. This table will help build the children's language as well as learn new words and build their vocabulary.”

Literacy for Littles
Funded Jun 5, 2020We would like to say thank you first of all. We have been really enjoying our new books you have helped us add to our library. We've received our books a while ago but due to covid 19 we are just now being able to put them to use. These new books have been a big hit in our classroom and the children have shown a lot of interest in the animal sound books and they have begun learning what animals make what sound. These new books have been a daily go to and we thank you so very much for helping our classroom receive new and fun books.”

Imagination at Work
Funded Feb 28, 2019We have been loving our new materials we added into our dramatic play and kitchen area. The children have been so intrigued with all the new items, touching, playing, and observing others how to use them. They have been a huge hit! the children gravitate towards them daily. I would say the birthday cake has been the biggest hit, we've sang lots of happy birthday songs and the kids served out slices of cake. Having these new toys have widen their vocabulary as they learn new words that go along with new objects. We are so very thankful to be able to receive these items.”

This classroom project was brought to life by The DonorsChoose.org Community and 3 other donors.We Need Gloves and Hats for Our Class
Funded Nov 11, 2018We would first like to say a big thank you to our donors who donated to our project. The day we received the package our children were so excited. They were asking lots of questions of what they thought was in the package. They were touching and squishing the package to feel it. When we opened the package they were very curious what was inside. When we took out the hats and gloves they were all touching them and trying to put them on. Being able to receive these materials for our class has brought so much warmth for the children when going outside. Lately it has been really cold when we go outside and the children always ask for their hats and gloves. I am so thankful to have this project funded to be able to provide warm hats and gloves for my classroom, and to be able to keep the little children warm as possible when playing outside. Until our next project we thank you.”

Toys for Little Hands
Funded Mar 27, 2018Thank you for your donations to our classroom. We were able to receive our new items and use them the next day. Our children have truly loved these new manipulative as they gravitate to them daily. They were so excited when they came into class and saw the new toys laid out. Having these new manipulative have brought out our children imagination more when they are engaged in the wooded animals, or building with the magnetic blocks. They are learning new words and sounds as they engage. We are very thankful for these new materials. Thank you again”

Funded Dec 8, 2017I would like to say thank you first and foremost for your donations to our project. Our children have been loving the teepee and the wall tent and they use them daily. It gave them a small space to read, relax, and settle down in. They really have been enjoying the cozy atmosphere these bring to our classroom. Our children were able to come to school and see new materials in their classroom. They ran over to them and instantly laid down on the soft rug and said a house a house. They were over joyed to say the least. We are very grateful to be able to add these new and fun materials into our classroom for daily use. Again I would like to say thank you!”
