Ready, Set, RESOURCES!

Funded Dec 2, 2019

I want to begin by saying thank you so much! My students and I are so grateful for your generous gifts. I received so classroom necessities like; dry erase markers, white board pocket, stickers, clipboards, etc. I use my smart board and dry erase board EVERYDAY. Due to the fact that I do not have an updated desktop computer I can not use some of the smart board features so I improvise by writing on the board with dry erase markers. My students also use a white board to go over daily questions and present their work. Therefore we go through markers A LOT. The smaller markers are used for my students so that they can use our homemade mini white boards and the large expo markers get put to use daily during instructional time. Stickers are used for incentives and celebration when my students are on task and doing well. They enjoy this so much! I also use the clipboards in this way. Many of my students hate to be stuck behind their desk so I allow students who have earned carpet or cozy corner time to go in these places and do their work using the clipboard. They are so happy to have them and ask for them almost every day. The other items like staplers and sharpeners are used for regular classroom duties that are very important! We are grateful to have these things in our classroom for our use. When my students first seen me walk into the classroom they were very excited to see what was inside. After explaining Donors Choose and that so many people thought that they deserved everything in the box and more they were even more pumped to see what we had received. The project that donors supported was one that simply added to the betterment of our classroom family and we plan to continue to use the items and take care of them so that they last for future classes.”
