  • Unlock Scholars Success: Help Us Bring Learning Visuals to Life!

    Funded Sep 18, 2024

    I cannot completely describe in words all the excitement and joy that my beautiful students felt when we printed some of the charts for the classroom. Some of my students even asked if they could bring a chart home. My students have enjoyed your generous gift to the fullest. Every single day, it has greatly impacted their learning. I strongly believe in developing a love for reading and learning at an early age. Yet fostering that love and growth could have never been possible without the support of donors like you. On behalf of my students, students who have yet to benefit from your generous donation, and my co-workers, thank you!!!!!

    Our goal for this project is to provide every scholar with the necessary visual aids and motivational resources. Our students are unique—they are resilient, eager to learn, and full of potential. With your support, we are able to give them visual aids and motivational resources that enhance their learning and uplift and inspire them to reach for their dreams.”

  • Choice Time Toys!

    Funded Sep 18, 2024

    Thank you! Thank you! Thank you so much for your generosity and willingness to support me in providing educational toys to my students. I am delighted that this project has been FULLY FUNDED, and I could not have done it without each one of you!

    My exceptional scholars are developing socializing skills during Choice Time. Furthermore, they are having fun developing their engineering skills through play. Choice Time is essential because it allows them to choose, be creative, and explore.

    During this time, students like to build, design, create, color, and be free with different types of creative games, toys, centers, etc.

    My students are so grateful for your donations. Thank you so much!”

  • Academic Learning Support With TPT Materials!

    Funded Sep 4, 2024

    Wow! Thank you all for your support and for helping fund this project! The materials on TPT are creative and highly engaging for my diverse group of learners. My students are so glad about all the new activities we were able to buy with this gift card. With this TPT gift card, I purchased resources and activities that address Literacy, Math, Science, Mindfulness, Social Skills, and Emotional Well-being. I also purchased interactive learning activities. These resources greatly benefit my special education students who need tailored instruction to succeed.”

  • Welcome Back to School, My Shining Stars!

    Funded Aug 15, 2024

    Coming back to school in September is so exciting for students and staff. My scholars were so happy to see a colorful, welcoming, and fun-looking school and classroom.

    Welcoming students back into a warm and inviting classroom can set a positive tone for the whole school year. The decorative materials helped the teachers create a space where all students feel welcomed and excited to return to school.

    All the kids loved the welcoming gifts they received on the first day of school.

    I would not have done this without your generous support; thank you so much!”

  • Snacks and Drinks for My Awesome Scholars!

    Funded Apr 5, 2024

    Thank you for your generous donation! I'm so honored that you donated to this project. My scholars were ecstatic when I opened the brand-new boxes filled with snacks. I cannot express how much this means for the scholars I serve. Your generous gift is something that my scholars enjoy every day, and it has a significant impact on their learning and future.

    I believe strongly in instilling a love of learning at a very young age, but it is almost impossible to do this when kids are hungry. Bringing snacks to my classroom would never be possible without the support of donors like you. I sincerely appreciate your support, and so do my healthy eaters. Thank you!!”

  • Winter Hats and Gloves to Keep Us Warm!

    Funded Jan 9, 2024

    Thank you so much for your generosity and willingness to help me provide my students with winter hats and gloves to keep them warm. Having warm hats and gloves helps prevent them from getting sick and missing school.

    I am delighted that this project was FULLY FUNDED, and I could not have done it without every one of you!

    I continue to teach, believing that all students can achieve at high levels, no matter their communities. I know this vital work cannot be done without the continued support of donors like you.

    Thank you for empowering my mission to make my students feel special.”

  • Learning Rewards to Keep My Scholars Motivated!

    Funded Dec 20, 2023

    Thank you! Thank you! Thank you so much for your generosity and willingness to support me in providing my students with rewards that will bring them joy. I am delighted that this project was FULLY FUNDED, and I could not have done it without every one of you! Thank you for empowering my mission to make my students feel special. Since I have been using rewards in my classroom, scholars are more motivated to turn in their assignments, participate in class, and remain competitive with their peers. Students who usually don't do their work will be motivated to see their peers get a reward for behaving and completing work. I cannot thank you enough for your kind hearts and donations."

    Your generous donation will be treasured in our classroom every day!”

  • Back to School with Confidentiality!

    Funded Sep 25, 2023

    The paper shredder machine allows me to keep all IEPs and confidential documents in one secure location rather than shredding them with other building documents.

    The new laminating machine is being used a lot to make learning materials reusable since my little scholars need a lot of practice with the same concept. The laminating paper also helps me to print materials in our classroom. My scholars get very excited when the practice tracing the numbers over and over using the laminated resources.

    Thank you so much for your kind donation to our project; we can not make it without your support!”

  • Getting Ready For Life, Not Only For School!

    Funded Sep 22, 2023

    The materials in this project are helping me to print take-home resources so students can practice their numbers, sight words, letter formation, and more while working on homework at home. I gave each of my scholars a portfolio folder to take home so they could easily access it.

    My students were thrilled to have a personalized portfolio. They really appreciated your generosity.

    With the clear bins, I was able to organize some of the classroom materials in a way that was friendly and accessible for all my students.

    Again, thank you very much for your kind donations!”

All the books in the project will be used to build a multicultural reading library for my students that come from Latino backgrounds. Students will use these books during their independent reading time to practice reading comprehension strategies with just right high interest level books. These multilingual books will support students love of reading and also help them in their transition to read in English. Having relatable characters and stories will help students grow as readers, and motivate them to read more. The Authentic Spanish Language kit will help provide more books for the student's Spanish library. Those who donate to this project will help newcomer English language learners read books that interest them.
