• Books Like Me!

  Funded Oct 22, 2020

  Thank you so much for your donation of books to my classroom. My children have really enjoyed reading and looking at book that show characters that look like them. It is so important that students see this in their everyday life especially characters that look like them so that they can relate to the characters and ideas that books present. Some of my students have not been exposed to literature until they started school and being able to present books to them that have similar characters to them have been very helpful!”

• Light Up Our World!

  Funded Mar 27, 2018

  My students were so excited when I opened the boxes from Donors Choose! Many of them had never seen a light up tablet before so this project was so exciting to them.

  My students have loved using the sensory light up tablets. It has helped them to calmly use blocks and view shapes.

  My students are able make letters and numbers and view them in a different light. They have been able to use it for addition and subtraction as well using the buttons that we received. My lesson on 2-d shapes took on a new light when I showed them the geometric solids on the light up tablet.

  This was a great project and we are very thankful it was funded!”

• Storytelling through Dramatic Play Part 3

  Funded Dec 25, 2017

  Every time we get a box from Donors Choose, my classroom is so excited. They love to watch and help unpack our new items that we use in the classroom. They puppets were a big hit!

  The students have enjoyed retelling the stories we've read as well as making up new stories using the puppets. This has increased their creativity and imagination. It has increased their verbal language skills dramatically.

  My students have loved acting out different community helpers in our dramatic play center using the dress up clothing we received. This helps them to connect to the community in a great way!”

• Discovery through Science

  Funded Nov 19, 2017

  My students have really enjoyed the science kits that were purchased. They have been able to experience building with various blocks, learning about magnets and motion.

  My students have build bridges, houses and towns with the various building blocks. They have made whole towns with all of the various blocks together. This is a great skill for them to learn and leads to higher order thinking skills.

  We will be using the animals life cycles and the animal view masters as we prepare for our field trip to the zoo. This is a great activity for the students to get ready to view the animals and have previous knowledge.”

• Storytelling through Dramatic Play!

  Funded Aug 16, 2017

  My students have thoroughly enjoyed using the kitchen set that was donated. They were so excited when they saw me open the packages & started putting it together. Every day they ask, "Is it my turn to go to the kitchen?". They have worked in a pizza shop making pizzas as well as working in a kitchen as families. Beginning in December, they will be able to create fun cookies for Christmas. This imaginative play is great to teach many skills we are learning in kindergarten especially retelling a story .”
