  • Clean Classroom

    Funded Jan 12, 2025

    Thank you so much. My students use these supplies daily. They use it them to continue learning and doing their best. I do not want any of my families to struggle with costs or have their children go without because they can't afford something.

    Thats why I try my best to obtain all needed supplies for my students for the school year. Our energy needs to be put entirely into teaching and learning. Now, all of my students have what they need at their fingertips. Their parents don't need to worry.”

  • Motivating Mathematicians Through Math Games

    Funded Nov 30, 2023

    Thank you so much for donating to my project! My students are so excited to use these materials during their math time. Math is one of our favorite subjects because we can make it very hands on. With the help of these materials, my students will be focused and engaged during math!

    Math games are a great way to get students to learn how to work together to solve problems. These games can be used at any time during our day! We cannot wait to play these games and continue to learn here in first grade!”

  • Differentiated Centers

    Funded Aug 17, 2023

    Your contribution has made such a meaningful difference for my students. When the packages arrived, my students were so excited. They helped me sorted them and put them in the correct bins.

    They use these centers on a daily basis. My students enjoy sharing their learning experience with me and their peers. They are learning to read CVC words and read sentences. They can also match the pictures with the words. These centers have truly helped ELA time run smoothly and effectively.

    Thank you for your kindness and generosity. Your donation shows that you truly care about our cause and the work we do. Thank you for your continued support! Words cannot express how much your donation means to me.

    Thank you again for your support.”

  • Easel Learning Makes for Easy Learning!

    Funded Jul 1, 2022

    Thank you so much for funding this project. Kindergarten is all about learning basic things such as letters and numbers. We are getting ready for 1st grade where we will dive into writing and reading books as well. This easel will help be model to my students: handwriting, writing sentences and displaying work.

    This project is going to be especially helpful for some of my kids that are struggling with basic handwriting. I will display easel in right of the room so they will be able to practice during their free time. I am also very excited to have this learning tool for a long time.”

  • Learning Centers for Kindergarten

    Funded Jan 3, 2021

    Thank you so much for helping my classroom to get individual materials like puzzles to help them to learn and create simple words. Also, my students are loving the playdough and alphabet mats to learn how to create their letters. This was such an honor to have you adopt my classroom.

    Each child has benefited from the ability to have their needs met at their own level and to push them forward towards success and greatness!! Their smiles are gratitude enough for me and show me how much they enjoy these activities!

    Thank you again!”

    With gratitude,

    Ms. Persaud

On March 13th, I brought home my classroom Chromebook just in case. I'm so glad I did because little did I know I would be teaching from home. If I did not borrow my classroom Chromebook, there would be no way I would be able to teach online. At this moment, my nephew, who is in middle-school and I share my school's Chromebook for teaching and homeschooling. It is not ideal, but his school didn't provide him with any resources to be successful at home with remote learning. I am constantly going on and checking in with my students, correcting their work and providing feedback. My nephew also has work to do and teacher meetings to attend. We do our best to work around each other's schedule. It would be helpful to have my own Chromebook during this time of teaching, especially not knowing what will happen in September.
