Starting the School Year Strong
Funded Sep 26, 2023I want to express my heartfelt thanks for your recent donation so that we can have more basic supplies. The individual privacy shields have allowed the students to focus and concentrate when completing classroom assessments. The transparent Colored Clipboards are used on a regular basis during our reading lessons to hold the students work where they are able to recorded their thinking as we complete our shared reading through various reading units. Each table in the classroom has a different assigned colored clipboard. Your generosity helps my students in so many ways. Since we are a Title 1 school, we don't always get all the economic support that our school needs and I always rely on Donors Choose to fill in the gaps. Your generous donation makes it possible for me to keep doing what I love and to ensure that my students have everything they need to be successful. Your support truly makes a significant difference in our school community. Your kindness is appreciated more than words can convey.”

Funded Sep 20, 2023I can't thank you enough for these new materials. The alphabet sound teaching tubs are helping my new english language learners to begin exploring letter sounds in english and lets them identify and sort a variety of adorable miniature items that begin with each letter of the alphabet. They are also building vocabulary skills as they learn to identify each of the miniature items. The english language learners enjoy using these miniature items as they manipulate them in their hands while learning sounds and words. The activity chart provides focused, daily practice with every letter of the alphabet providing them with the reinforcement they need to really master each letter in the english language.”

Funded Sep 21, 2023I can't thank you enough for the horseshoe table and the wobbly chair. The students were so excited when the furniture arrived. I couldn't wait for the horseshoe table to be assembled and ready to use. As soon as it was assemble I was able to sit with students at the horseshoe table and begin assessing students to complete some of our beginning of the year assessments. I know this piece of furniture will be used every day in the classroom for small group instruction, interventions, assessments in small group or one on one. Words are not enough to show my appreciation for your generosity.”

Funded Jul 8, 2023Thank you so much for your generous donations. We started using the supplies the day that they arrived to the school building. I was able to put at each table in the classroom a privacy board as students complete their beginning of the school year math assessment. The privacy board is an item used a lot in my classroom as students take various assessment through out the school year.

Funded Mar 30, 2023Thank you so much for supporting this project. My heart is filled with so much gratitude. I started two years ago with the goal of revamping an entire second grade library thanks to your generosity my second graders have a new set of updated books on the S reading level. Ultimately the goal had been to revamp the entire classroom library to provide them with more up dated books that they would enjoy selecting for their independent reading time. Literacy is the essence of all. Research shows that when students leave the earlier grades reading on level they are more likely to succeed in school. Your support is so appreciated, words are not enough to say how excited I am and they are to have new books they can select for their independent reading. The students faces light up when they notice new books are placed in the classroom library and in the reading level bins. Our library had completely brand new books across all the levels. I have successfully been able to revamp an entire second grade classroom library.”
