Thumbs Up If You Can See What's On the Screen!
Funded Mar 27, 2018Being able to see the visual supports that I provide in every lesson has reduce student frustration encountered if they didn't get the seat right next to me because the whole group can view the same image in the same quality. Now when I ask "thumbs up If you can see the screen" ALL thumbs can go up and EVERYONE can see and participate fully ! Thank you so much for helping to improve my students engagement in the lessons! Lesson planning has become easier because with the support of technology students can see better but they are also more eager to participate and excited about their learning.”

This classroom project was brought to life by Ripple.Picasso Babies!
Funded Mar 27, 2018This project has brought art back into the classroom. My students are able to use the scented markers to add vibrant colors to their self-portraits and other activities. They use the paints and brushes to "paint their emotions" and express themselves. The aprons help to keep their school uniform clean and protected.
They are able to create projects that reflect their understanding of literacy and illustrate them using markers and paint.
They are able to create sketches and drawings and illustrate their own stories. Research shows that students learn better in a multi-sensory environment where they can be creative and their inquiring minds can explore. With your generosity I am able to provide opportunities to really help extend my students' minds and their thinking through art. Thank you so much for helping me make their dreams bright and colorful !”

This classroom project was brought to life by Ripple.3D Student Engagement: Teach Me How to Doodle
Funded Mar 27, 2018Very often students are not consistently given an opportunity at a hands-on approach to learning daily.
Research shows that children benefit and thrive with a multi-sensory approach to learning, and what better way to get all of the body's system in sync than a hands-on activity such as 3Doodling?
I encourage my students to extend their minds and ideas and to express their creativity. I wanted to have a 3Doodling station in the room where students have to opportunity to increase language, follow procedure, makes academic connections through the arts, all while building upon their science and math intellect. This station has become a staple in our room and is a place where inquiring minds can soar! You made my vision a reality for my students. You have made it possible for them to have experiences that would not be possible without your support”

Funded Mar 9, 2018We were humbled by the fact that you selected our project to fund. Many people would not believe the difference a pencil sharpener could make in the day to day life of a student. Currently, I am always able to provide students with a sharpened pencil and they can get started on their assignments right away . When a pencil point is broken students are able to just get up and sharpen their own pencil as compared to asking friends, pulling out an out- dated time consuming hand held one or worse just sitting there. This sharpener has given me instructional time back where lessons are interrupted far less .We are extremely grateful for your generosity. Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!”

This classroom project was brought to life by Ripple.Quiet Our Bellies Not Our Minds!
Funded Dec 12, 2017Thank you so much for your generosity! Thank you for caring, thank you for helping, thank you for changing the lives of children that are in need. The students that I have the honor to teach each day are really amazing children that come from great families. However, due to real financial struggles many of our families are not always able to provided their children with healthy snack options. Your donations will keep the rumbling of their bellies down. My students no longer will lose focus or become distracted by their hunger because now they will have access to brain/body healthy snacks. Hunger can be very distracting to learning and lead to incomplete tasks and the misunderstanding of information. Your donations will help kids stay focused and engaged in their learning. Kids in my class come to school with so many other distractions present in their lives these donations have removed hunger as an obstacle. Your donations will allow them to push through the day and focus on learning, not hunger. Thank you. You are amazing and your donations are appreciated more than words could ever express!”

This classroom project was brought to life by Quill.com and one other donor.Empowered Through Culturally Relevant
Funded Nov 29, 2017Thank you so much for your support! My Students were able to learn through new content thought to them based on their culture. Sometimes it is difficult for a student to make a connection to what they are learning which is why I focus on culturally responsive instruction. Students become easily engaged and can make a connection to what they are learning. It is important for students to learn about history in the United States using different perspectives. It is important for students to learn through and instruction that empowers students intellectually, socially, emotionally, and politically by using cultural reference to impart knowledge, skills, and attitudes. Thank you for allowing my students to learn using a printer and paper to facilitate their learning.”
