Thank you so much for your donation! With these headphones, students will be able to focus on their work. The students will be thrilled that we have high quality head phones headed our way. The pencils will allow the students to begin their work quickly, not having to look around the room and ask others for pencils before every assignment. Thank you again so much!”
Your generosity has allowed this project to be fully funded! I can't wait to tell my students the good news in class tomorrow. They will be so moved to hear that there are people in this world, people they have never met, that truly care for them and want them to succeed. I will think of you all each time we have small group instruction in a more comfortable environment. Thank you once again!”

I am so incredibly thankful for each and every one of you and the love you have shown my students. Thank you so much for your generosity! My students will be so excited for our new carpet and books. It means so much that there are supporters of our class out there, some I haven't even met before. Our classroom is a better place to learn because of your help.”
Thank you all so much for your help getting this project funded. I posted this project only a few days ago and the support is overwhelming. These gift cards will ensure that I am using the best lessons possible for my students. I am so lucky to have friends as supportive as you and was even helped by a fellow teacher whom I have never met. I hope you are all staying safe and have a better 2021.”
I can't thank you all enough for your support. The students will now be able to hear the lessons with their new headphones, type easily on their keyboards, and hold an actual book in their hands! Your support means to the world to me and your donations will give the students a better chance of success in their hybrid learning. This school year is off to a positive start because of you all.”

Thank you so much for your donation! I can't wait to return to school tomorrow and tell my students that kind strangers have helped us so much. They love Graphic Novels and we all can't wait to start the Graphic Unit of Study! This is so much appreciated.”

Thank you so much for your support! Because of people like you, the 4th Grade Library project was fully funded. The students will receive books that they have been waiting for and I can't wait to tell them when they arrive at school today. This will go a long way to shape their reading lives! Thank you again, I hope you all have a wonderful holiday season.”

Thanks to you- my wonderful friends and family, my project was funded in just a few hours! When I heard there was no technology in my new classroom I was so nervous for the school year but then I remembered I have a wonderful support system with me always. Because of you, the kids will have a wonderful year! Pictures to follow - I will meet the kids and tell them the great news Sept 5th!!”

Reading programs, such as Reading A-Z or MyLexia, help students reach the next reading level by individualizing lessons and providing teachers with ongoing data to target learning goals. Some of the students in our classroom might need a break from the high energy levels in 4th grade, so using a tablet to self regulate emotions could help them relax and self sooth. With a tablet, students would be able to e-mail authors, research new animals, or type writing pieces on google docs to share with their classmates.
On the tablets, students can play interactive games to help them learn their multiplication tables, create their own coding programs, learn animation- the options are endless!
