4th Grade High Interest Books!
Funded Jan 7, 2024Thank you so much for your donation to our classroom library, my students have been enjoying the books so much! Once I received the books, I immediately placed them into bins based on genre and series and hid them from the kids. When I unveiled the books, the students were so excited and amazed. They all ran to the library and wanted to take out as many books as possible. They are still sharing and reading them to this day!
Students specifically loved the Dog Man and Cat Kid books, that is one of their favorite series. My students love graphic novels which is why most of the books I asked for are in comic book format. Many students also enjoyed the new nonfiction books on animals.
Thank you so much again for your generous donation to my classroom and school!”

Help Newcomers Learn English!
Funded Oct 11, 2023Thank you so much for your donations to my classroom and school! The newcomers to our school speak various languages and have used these materials in learning and applying the English language. It's always fun as a student and a child to use something brand new that no one has ever used before, so they were all excited to use these materials!
One experience I had with a newcomer student was when they were playing the listening activity with a partner and they kept laughing and having so much fun. Their partner kept getting the answer wrong and instead of getting angry, they also laughed. I love making learning fun for my students, especially when they need to take on the hard task of learning a new language. Thank you again for bringing some excitement and laughter into my classroom!”

Funded Mar 14, 2023I cannot describe the impact your donation has had on my kids. When I received the box, I quickly opened it and started to add the books to my classroom library. When students started to book shop for new books, they all quickly noticed there were new additions and became so excited. I have used these books for small group work and also to engage my readers.
A few students were so excited to read the new books, I needed to create a wait list so they would be able to know who gets the books next! New books are so fun, colorful and engaging, I found all of my students wanting to book shop for more. Thank you so much for your generous donations! The books will be cherished for many years to come.”
