• Write it! Show it! Share it!

  Funded Dec 13, 2023

  In our classroom, we've introduced reusable writing boards, and they've totally changed how we learn and interact.

  When we're tackling grammar, these boards become our go-to tools. We are able to write out sentences, identify parts of speech, and break down language stuff. It's like a fun puzzle where we get to play with words and figure out how they fit together.

  Studying for spelling tests is way more fun with these boards. Instead of just memorizing words, we write them out, erase mistakes, and try again. It's hands-on and helps us remember better.

  And those task cards? We love using the boards with them. We brainstorm ideas, solve problems, and work together. Having a big surface to write on makes it easier to share our thoughts and come up with our answers.

  Plus, using these boards makes us feel like a team. We can help each other out, cheer each other on, and celebrate when we get things right.

  Overall, these reusable writing boards make learning more fun and interactive. They help us retain the information and feel more confident about what we're learning.”

• Create! Motivate! Innovate!

  Funded Mar 4, 2022

  Thank you so much for helping fund my thermal printer and stickers. The students have seemed very excited about the stickers, even the boys! I have already made stickers, and the kids are loving them. They have loved getting to choose which sticker they want when doing well on an assignment. I feel like it has also increased their efforts when completing an assignment. Thank you again for investing in my classroom and in my students. I'm excited to continue to use my printer to help bring excitement to my classroom!”

  Funded Aug 10, 2020

  Thank you again for investing in my students and my classroom. Because of you each of my students is able to have engaging, uninterrupted learning through our district curriculum programs. The students love the headphones and are so glad that they each have their own pair to use all year long! Thanks to you my students are able to experience something that is new to them, and that they can take ownership of. They really take pride in caring for their headphones, and they get to use them every single day. We appreciate you!”

• Books, Books, Books!

  Funded Apr 23, 2019

  Thank you so much for your donation. You have allowed my students to be able to have brand new book boxes to keep their books in during the school year. They were so excited to start the year off with these new bright colored boxes. They are plastic and extra durable, and should last for years to come. Every student has their own box with their name plate on the end! Again thank you so much for investing in my classroom, and in the education of my students! Because of people like you our students do not have to do without!”

• I’m Proud of My Work, Let’s Take a Selfie!

  Funded Sep 28, 2018

  Thank you so much for funding the printer for my classroom. My students were so excited to get to use it. We just took our first assessment, so it was a great time for the kids to be able to take a selfie with the work they were so proud of!

  I know this will also help give my kids an incentive to work harder, so they can take a selfie with things that they are proud of and want to show it.

  Thank you again for investing in my classroom and in my students. We really appreciate your generosity!”

• Collaborate! Brainstorm! Team Building!

  Funded Mar 27, 2018

  My students were beyond excited to receive the new tables and chairs! They have loved being able to have more room and have the ability to easily share materials with others. They were excited about being able to place things in the middle of the table and all students be able to reach and use all of our materials.

  The students have been able to use these tables to collaborate while reviewing for their state assessment. They can easily hear one another and see each other while discussing answers for different activities we have done to review. They also love the color that it has added to our classroom.

  Thank you again for investing in my students and our classroom!”

• Focus! Concentration! Success!

  Funded Jan 19, 2018

  Thank you so much for funding our project. The kids were so excited to get our new privacy stations. They couldn't wait to use them!

  The kids love being about to grab a station when working on daily assignments or test. They feel like they can better concentrate and get their work done more efficiently without any distractions. Our class is getting ready to take our state assessment in May. Their privacy stations will be extra helpful as we continue to work hard to succeed on this test.

  Thank you again for your generosity, we really appreciate it!”
