  • Wiggle Worms!

    Funded Oct 11, 2023

    Thank you for your amazing donation! WOW, what a difference it has made in my classroom. The students all want to come to the rug to learn now, so they can use the cushions and lap desks. At the back table they are on the stools and working so hard!

    You have helped to create a welcoming, differentiated classroom. A space where the students can wiggle, waggle, and learn. The students faces were an amazing sight to see as they entered the classroom and saw all the goodies they now got to use.

    Thank you and Happy Holidays!”

  • Technology in the Classroom

    Funded Feb 10, 2022

    I just wanted to take a moment to thank you again for your kind donation. I can't even express how much easier our school day is with this printer.

    This printer has already allowed for the chance for immediate exploration, research, and a chance for higher order thinking. We now have immediate access to things be printed out, which has helped to enhance and make our day more lively.

    The students wanted to say thank you, "Thank you so much for giving us this printer. You made our day more interesting and sometimes we even get harder work that allows for our brains to grow!"

    Thank you so much for all that you do and all of your support, we truly appreciate it!”

  • Remote Learning Resources

    Funded Apr 8, 2021

    Thank you so much for your kind donation. This has been one of the most difficult and stressful years of my teaching career, but you helped to lessen that burden. The new headphones you helped me to get for my class was the biggest help as all of them did not have headphones or they were broken. Therefore, making online teaching very hard as most of them were trying to learn in a loud place. You allowed learning more accessible and easier for the students.

    The kids were beyond excited to see the new materials brought to the class in boxes. It was like classroom Christmas to them as they could not wait for me to open the boxes. Once I did they could not stop smiling.

    Not only were the headphones the biggest hit of all, but the wiggle seats. As this year is so different and the kids can not work in partners, work in small groups, and move around the class, they were getting very antsy. These wiggle chairs helped them to get their anxieties and energy out, as well as give them the chance to move their body and legs.

    I cannot say thank you enough for your kind donations and the difference you have made for my class this year and the year to come.”

  • Diverse Books for Diverse Readers

    Funded Sep 25, 2020

    I just wanted to take this time to thank you again for your kind donation. Working in a diverse setting these books are going to help connect my class. I can now do mini lessons on each book whether it's in feelings or different cultures creating a welcoming environment. This city is what you would call a "melting pot" and it is important to show the kids that it is okay to be different and that our differences are what make each of us so special. You helped to build the sense of community and understanding so thank you. And thank you for all that you do, it does not go unnoticed!”

  • Seat Sacks!

    Funded Dec 11, 2018

    I cannot thank you enough for helping and funding the seat sacks. They have helped my students more than you know. Before they were sitting on their books, papers falling out everywhere, and were surrounded by clutter. They are now able to organize their desks, learn responsibility, and have a clean surrounding. This has helped them tremendously to stay out of trouble, as they are no longer distracted. They are not falling off their chairs because the excessive amounts of books or paper. My students have been able to keep focus and really engage in their work.”

With this being said they have had the opportunity to show growth in all areas of school. It is with your help that I have made school a more positive and welcoming space for them.

  • Verizon Bringing Technology into the Classroom

    Funded May 9, 2018

    Thank you so much for donating to our project. The students are really excited to use the materials. The headphones will be effective in centers to help improve focus and efficiency while they use Chromebooks. They will be able to block out the many distractions that can arise in the classroom and we will see a great improvement in ability and effort. The printer will help to ensure that the students receive differentiated instruction and practice in real time. The students will also be able to see their creative writing printed in the classroom and displayed. The Apple TV will also help to display the student work. Thank you again for your generosity and all you do for students.”

My students need printer, headphones, and Apple TV to bring our classroom into the world of technology! The printer will be used on a daily basis for a variety of subjects and purposes. These days the impact of technology in the classroom is huge and I personally believe in student's learning throughout it. Having a printer in our classroom allows for me to print, print outs that can benefit the students learning at the time. It is an extra resource to help their learning. An Apple TV will allow me to model for my students and to teach wirelessly. I will be able to move around the classroom while presenting my lesson. Students will be able to present their knowledge through the iPad from anywhere in the classroom. I plan on having my students use the iPad for group work and projects. By having an Apple TV and iPad in my classroom, I will be preparing my students for the world around them. Having headphones in the class would give them a quieter work space that allows them to focus better. It would be helpful to the students within small group and on their tests. Many students have different needs and by placing headphones over their ears, they are given the opportunity to block out any excess noise and allowed the chance to focus and persevere on the task at hand. During center the students are given colors according to task levels. The headphones will match appropriate centers, which is another benefit within the classroom. I am hoping that by adding such manipulatives into the classroom, my students will grow and benefit greatly.
