Math Literature Links To Learning
Funded Oct 22, 2008I want to express my appreciation for your generosity. You truly did a wonderful thing. Your contribution will directly benefit my students. The literature you have funded will help students understand various math concepts. I attended a recent school board meeting and heard how state and local school budgets are being affected due to the struggling economy. More and more teachers are writing grants asking for materials that are necessary to teach children because schools can no longer afford these items. Your donation means so much to me but even more to the children. Again, thank you so much for all you have done for my students”

Engaging Students Through Literacy Workstations
Funded Nov 2, 2007Thank you for funding "Engaging Students Through Literacy Workstations." The workstation activities will allow students to engage in hands-on learning. Since the workstations are fun, students' intrinsic motivation will increase, as will their attention. The students will participate in learning that is relevant and personal. In contrast to seat-work, literacy workstations provide movement and novelty as students work alone or interact with one another, using instructional materials to explore and expand their literacy. I really appreciate you funding the materials for my students. I cannot wait to see the faces of the students as they begin using these activities. It is a very special time when a teacher gets students excited about learning and you have helped make that possible. Thank you again.

Listening Centers For ESOL Learners
Funded May 26, 2007I cannot express enough how grateful I am for your generous donation. With the growing number of English Language Learners in our school, using books on tape is one of the best ways to immerse students in the English language. As I am writing this letter, I'm envisioning students at the listening centers learning how to read and parents and students listening to the books in their cars as they drive to various locations. This is a gift that we can use for many years. Thank you again for your generosity.
