  • We Need A Comfy Place To Read

    Funded Sep 4, 2018

    I wanted to express my gratitude for your generosity to our classroom. My students were so excited to receive the boxes and they were even more excited when we pulled out the chairs, each a different color. My students now have a place to read quietly. They pull out the chairs when we have silent reading time. I have also found that they would sometimes rather sit in these chairs to read than play with any of the learning games during independent time. The chairs fold up flat for easy storage.

    I am so grateful for your kindness to our classroom. It is very much appreciated.”

  • Our School Needs a Science Lab!

    Funded Mar 23, 2017

    I can't thank you enough for your generous donation to our school's science lab. Our students are so excited to see the progress being made in the science room. There are now posters on the walls, hands-on materials on the shelves, and a few materials out to facilitate science exploration.

    When the boxes arrived, my students were so excited. We opened each box and the students were able to get a first glimpse of what will be available to the school in our science lab. They felt special because they were the first to see the materials.

    Many of my students have limited resources at home, but this does not stop them from being inquisitive and eager to learn. Several of them want to be involved in science related professions in the future. I know that this science lab will further inspire them.”

  • We Need TIME For Kids Magazines To Inspire Young Readers

    Funded Sep 5, 2016

    I wanted to thank you so much for your generous donations to our classroom. My second graders love the Time For Kids magazines that are delivered to our classroom every month. These magazines give my students the opportunity to learn about other countries and cultures through the non-fiction articles. So far, our favorite article was about Ugly Vegetables. We thought that the pictures were pretty funny and the article was very thought-provoking.

    We really look forward to our Time For Kids magazines every month. They are a great supplement to our social studies and science curriculum. Thank you again for your generosity and kindness. It is very much appreciated.”

  • Help Us Move It, Move It With Step Trackers!

    Funded Aug 26, 2016

    Wow! Who knew that step counters would make such a difference in the activity in my classroom!

    My students wear their step counters every day. Part of their morning routine is to write down the date and their step goal for the day. At the end of the day, they record how many steps they took. At first, they thought that 1,000 steps was a lofty goal. Now, their goals are 5,000 and above! They challenge themselves (and each other) to reach higher and higher step goals. I have seen such an increase in my students' activity since introducing the step counters.

    Thank you from the bottom of my heart.”

  • Help Us Stay Healthy While We Play

    Funded Aug 12, 2016

    I would like to thank you for your generous donation to our classroom. My students love their scooter boards, balancing seesaws and stability pads. They make PE and classtime fun.

    The stability pads are perfect for my more wiggly students. They are able to sit on a stability pad and wiggle as much as they want, which also seems to help with their concentration.

    The balancing seesaws and scooterboards are by far the favorite choice in PE equipment. They are developing their balancing skills and their gross motor skills while having fun at the same time.

    Your generous donation is so very much appreciated.”

  • We Need New PE Equipment To Help Us Stay Healthy

    Funded Aug 12, 2016

    I can't thank you enough for your generous donation to our classroom. I wish you could have seen the looks on my students' faces when the boxes of equipment began arriving.

    The students love to make up games with the activity cones and the beanbags. They also love be the giant balls. They play with them on the grassy area of our playground. The yoga mats are perfect for inside recess on days when it is too warm to play outside.

    Your generosity is greatly appreciated. My students are healthier and more active as a result of your kindness.”

  • Active Kids Are Healthy Kids!

    Funded Aug 5, 2016

    I can't begin to tell you how excited my second graders were when I opened the Hoki Stools and pe equipment. They all had to take turns sitting on the "wobbly stools" and thought that they were very funny.

    These stools are perfect for my most wiggly students. They are able to move as much as they want on their stools and it seems to help them concentrate during small group instruction.

    The PE equipment is a welcome change from the usual handball and hopscotch options that my students usually have. We are sharing our equipment with a third grade classroom, so that more students can benefit from your donation.

    We truly appreciate what you have done for us.”

  • We Need a MacBook Pro for Publishing Writing and Programming

    Funded Dec 1, 2015

    I would like to thank you from the bottom of my heart for your generous donation to our classroom. Having an extra laptop for classroom publishing is amazing. Before, we had a sign up list for students to use our classroom laptop. The wait was always a long one. Now my students do not have to wait as long to publish their stories. The wait time is literally cut in half. My students were so excited to hear the news that we would be receiving the new laptop. They have been practicing their keyboarding skills on our iPad and our other laptop. I truly appreciate your generosity and kindness.”
