  • New Teaching Easel for Our Classroom

    Funded Feb 12, 2025

    Wow! We are so very thankful to hear that our project has been funded. This teaching easel will make our lessons so much easier and seamless!

    When I told the students that our project was funded this morning, they were beaming! Thank you for helping put smiles on the faces of my sweet third graders.”

    With gratitude,

    Ms. Chamberlain

    This classroom project was brought to life by Panda Cares and one other donor.
  • Updated Chapter Book and Fun Friday Options

    Funded Dec 18, 2024

    Thank you so much for supporting our classroom! I am the proud teacher of a diverse and bright group of students who will be absolutely thrilled with the new additions to our classroom.

    Keeping students engaged is important to me and these resources will help my sweet kids remain engaged.”

    With gratitude,

    Ms. Chamberlain

  • Incentives, Incentives, Incentives!

    Funded Aug 15, 2024

    Thank you for supporting our classroom with updated goodies for our prize bin. The kids are able to "shop" with their PBIS rewards on Fridays and keeping the prizes fresh and fun is really motivating for them!

    3rd graders LOVE slime and tiny stuffed animals, so of course those went quickly. Some kids choose not to shop for themselves, but instead for a parent or little sibling.

    Again, we thank you for supporting our sweet 3rd graders classroom. These kids are so deserving and I love being their teacher.”

  • Engaging Books and a Supply Refresh

    Funded May 8, 2024

    I hope this email finds you well. I just wanted to express my heartfelt thanks for your generous donation of books and supplies to our 2nd grade classroom. The new books have brought so much joy to my students, and we are incredibly grateful for your support. In particular, the "Diary of a Minecraft Zombie" books have been a huge hit with the students, sparking their imagination and love for reading.

    Additionally, the new whiteboard and pencil erasers have been a fantastic addition to our learning environment.

    Your kindness and generosity are greatly appreciated, and I cannot thank you enough for your ongoing support of our classroom.”

  • Magnetic Easel for Small Group Time

    Funded Jan 3, 2024

    We love our new easel for small groups! It has made our groups much easier to run with this cute, portable easel. I am able to use one side to write letters and sounds on and the other side to build words with our letter cards. It is light enough that a student can carry it from place to place. And, perhaps my favorite part is the storage caddies it came with! No more searching for markers and an eraser before our groups begin.

    Small group time is a time each day when I can work with students on specifically what they need to be successful in the classroom. Thank you for helping to make this time more efficient!”

    With gratitude,

    Ms. Chamberlain

  • Organizational Materials and Wiggle Stools

    Funded Dec 24, 2023

    We are so appreciative of your support of our classroom! The different curricula we use in our classroom has a lot of pieces for students to keep track of and we were finding it hard at the beginning of the year to keep our things organized!

    The beautiful, bright seat pockets we received have both added a pop of color to our classroom and made it much easier for us to keep our supplies organized. Not having to search through our desks for a particular book or workbook makes our transition times so much easier!

    The wiggle stools have also been so helpful in calming bodies that need a little more opportunity to move!

    Thank you again for supporting our classroom!”

    With gratitude,

    Ms. Chamberlain

  • Building Community and Enhancing Social Emotional Skills

    Funded Dec 23, 2023

    We are so appreciative of the social emotional learning focused books your donation brought to our classroom. Our class truly enjoys a read aloud and these books are both engaging and meaningful to our class agreements.

    Through these books, we have learned that feelings are okay, that it's okay to be different and that we can embrace adversity. Students have access to re-read the books when they are feeling like they need support in a particular area.

    Thank you so much for supporting our classroom! These books will be treasured for years to come.”

    With gratitude,

    Ms. Chamberlain

  • Help Make Win Time a Win With Engaging Books!

    Funded Oct 13, 2023

    We love our new books! Having sets of these "book club" books has helped to make my small groups of students look forward to our independent reading time. They work together to decide what book to read next and have often been spotted chatting about their favorite parts of the book!

    Having books that are part of a series is an unexpected benefit of this project! Many of the students are checking our other books from the series at the library each week.

    Hooray for eager readers! We are so appreciative of your generosity.”

    With gratitude,

    Ms. Chamberlain

  • Help Students Continue Learning at Home

    Funded Apr 21, 2020

    Thank you so much for supporting our second graders! In these crazy times, it breaks my heart to think that some students don’t have access to the materials they need to continue learning. Your support helps these students keep the momentum they’ve established and ensures they’ll be ready for third grade.”

    With gratitude,

    Ms. Chamberlain

Distance Learning is quickly becoming our new norm. Unfortunately, our school district does not have Chromebooks available for all students. We'd like to offer Chromebooks to students who wouldn't otherwise have access to a computer at home. From these devices, they'll be able to access programs we use everyday in our classroom such as Zearn, ClassHero and Lexia. Additionally, they'll be able to participate in Zoom lessons with the rest of their classmates, allowing them to stay connected with their friends and teachers. Having access to these tools at home will ensure that our students don't fall behind in learning and help prepare them for third grade.
