• Library Update!

  Funded Nov 29, 2022

  Thank you so much for your extremely generous donation. Your generosity is so heartwarming. Students have been so eager to get books into their hands and not have to read them through a screen after remote learning during the pandemic. Children's literature is alway evolving and your donations give my students more high interest books to read. The students gave their input on book titles and series. They have been loving reading these books. Because multiples of each titles were ordered students have been buddy reading the books and it has been so great to hear the conversations they are having while reading together. I am beyond grateful for your support of my classroom and it's library.”

• I Survived the American Revolution, 1776 Class Set

  Funded May 5, 2022

  Thank you so much for being a part of this great community of people coming together to support and encourage the incredible growth taking place not only in my classroom, but in classrooms all over the country. Every day my students are pushing themselves to become stronger readers and these materials funded by you for our classroom are so essential in helping me try to reach all of my students. After almost two years of remote learning it has been so special to watch my students hold books in their hands this year and see the excitement on their faces as they dive into reading. Because of you students will all have their own copy of our interactive read aloud book for our Historical Fiction Unit. Thank you for making all of this possible!”

  I can't thank you enough for your generosity! I am extremely grateful, and my students are going to be very excited about this addition to our classroom library.

• Library Refresh!

  Funded Oct 21, 2021

  Thank you so much for your extremely generous donation. Your generosity is so heartwarming. Students have been so eager to get books into their hands and not have to read them through a screen after months of remote learning last school year. Children's literature is alway evolving and your donations give my students more high interest books to read. The students gave their input on book titles and series. They have been loving reading these books. Because multiples of each titles were ordered students have been buddy reading the books and it has been so great to hear the conversations they are having while reading together.

• Reading the Weather!

  Funded Feb 1, 2022

  Thank you so much for your donations! My students are going to enjoy reading all about different forms of weather! This Unit will be one of the things students remember learning about in 4th grade. Instead of just having one teacher copy of each book, now students can have their own copies to used while practicing the skills we learn as a class. This wouldn't be possible without your support and generosity.”

• Projecting Success

  Funded Jan 16, 2020

  Thank you so much for our new projector and document camera! Each and every day, we do so much of our learning through both of these, and now because of you it is so much easier! The projector allows students to watch interactive video clips to emphasize and expand different math concepts, project problems so the students can be the teacher and explain their thinking, and I model how to approach different math problems for the students underneath the document camera.

  Out of all these the students being the teacher and coaching each other is my favorite. This has been something both my students and I have missed a lot. It makes me happy to know that my students' are not only expanding their own knowledge, but are sharing it out with other students. It's a pretty amazing thing to witness. If we didn't have our projector and document camera, students wouldn't be able to share their work as easily.

  We are beyond grateful for your support!”

• Extra Extra! Read all about DynaMath!

  Funded Oct 26, 2018

  Thank you so much for your donation so that my students could have a subscription to DynaMath this year! With their high interest texts and riveting topics, you have helped relate math to every day real world situations. DynaMath has helped them practice previously learned math skills as well! These magazines have connected videos that illustrate concepts, as well as learning skills and activities attached to the article, so learning is embedded with each article. An added bonus is that they get to keep the copy of the magazine once we finish reading it, so they can enjoy it again and again and work with it when they finish their class work. It is because of generous people like you that my students have been able to get their hands on these amazing resources, and we are very grateful!”
