  • Make Our Lessons Come to Life!

    Funded Nov 13, 2024

    My class and I would like to thank you for your donation. The gift card helped us make my lessons more engaging and more interesting. Each child was given the opportunity to learn at their own pace and I was able to differentiate the work so that each child could achieve their goals. I was able to purchase a unit in writing which included a very fun writing activity titled "How I got Stuck in A SnowGlobe". Each child was so excited about writing their creative stories. I was able to display their work on the bulletin board and we received many compliments from the entire school. I look forward in purchasing more projects to use with my students. Thank you so much for your generosity.”

  • Being Comfortable to Learn Our Best

    Funded Nov 28, 2023

    This project has brought joy to class 3-405 our new chairs have brought comfort to both the teacher and the students. The teacher chair is a great way for me to enjoy my down time during lunch and during the time I plan my lessons. The flexible seats for the students give them the option to be comfortable as they are learning in class. The choice to where a child can choose to sit has helped many students become more focused. The addition of these seats will continue to have a great impact and we will continue to grow into avid learners and future leaders of tomorrow. Thank you to the donors and will be forever grateful for the great impact you have provided for my students.”

  • Working Towards Becoming More Independent!

    Funded Dec 6, 2023

    This project has brought great joy to all the students in my class. As a teacher it is very important to have my students become an independent learner. I have set up the portfiolo for each of my groups so they can refer to the charts that I use in my reading lessons. When they first saw the portfolios they were very excited to see something new that they would be using within their groups. I gave them some time to scroll through the pages so they can see the resources that they would have access to on a daily basis.

    I will be adding more resources into the portfolios for other subjects such as the math, science and social studies. I want to thank the donors for funding my project and look forward to making my students shining stars for our future.”

  • Oh the Places the 3rd Graders will Go!

    Funded Nov 28, 2022

    I would like to thank you so much so your donation. The subscription to the Storyworks has opened my students to different genres and wonderful stories. I recently had parent teacher conference and many parents were impressed by the progress of their children's reading skills. The magazine is a great resource that I have incorporated into my classroom. This resource has many digital resources that help children develop their vocabulary and further their knowledge of nonfiction topics.

    The teachers pay teachers gift cards has also helped me foster my students learning in many ways. I have incorporated many SEL projects to support my students Social Emotional Learning. It has helped them to grow empathy for one another. I have also used this resource to have them develop their writing skills in a fun way.

    Class 3-405 and I would like to thank you so much for helping us achieve many goals with the resources that you have funded for us. Enjoy the enclosed pictures of several projects that we have made.”

  • Making Earth Day Come to Life

    Funded Apr 8, 2019

    On behalf of my students, I would like to thank our donors for their donations. My students enjoyed creating a beautiful rock garden. They worked painting rocks, weeding the garden and placing their rocks in the garden that they worked hard creating. This project taught my students that teamwork is very important in creating a beautiful place. They have taken ownership of their project and are very proud of what they accomplished. I thank the donors and look forward in creating more projects with my students.”
