    Funded Nov 3, 2022

    My students and teachers have enjoyed using these materials that you have generously funded for our classroom. The new chairs and classroom table have become a sharing, collaborative space for students and teachers alike to sit and share their work. We use the space for writing and reading time. Students love sitting in these comfy chairs during reading time. For writing time, students love using the table to conference with each other to edit their writing. Teachers us enjoy these materials as well because it is nice clean space to plan lessons with collegues.

    The desk chair was also a hit! Students enjoy sitting in the teacher chair for reading aloud. I use the desk chair to draft lessons, administer reading tests, conference with students and teachers. It is really comfortable and brightens up the space.

    When my students and teachers first saw these materials, they were wowed! They enjoy the space and actually prefer to use these materials over others in the room.

    Next steps for this project would be to continue to use these materials for reading, writing, and conferencing activities with teachers and students.”

    With gratitude,

    Mrs. Valencia

  • Zooming is a Breeze!

    Funded Dec 2, 2020

    Words alone cannot begin to express my feelings of gratitude and appreciation for your kind donation. My students have enjoyed your gifts in our classroom. Your gifts have made my students more comfortable in our classroom. We use them everyday day; from reading a book on the rug, to grabbing supplies from the cart, to organizing our library with our book boxes, and to creating more light in our library section with our lamp! I can't wait to use them again next year with my students! We are thankful !”

    With gratitude,

  • Comfortable, Calm Learning Environment

    Funded Dec 10, 2019

    Before the Pandemic hit, I received these wonderful materials to enhance the learning environment for my students. Students were excited to use the comfy rug for reading time and snuggle with the pillows that were donated from a parent. The lamp added so much warmth to our room. The storage cart made me more organized for small group meetings and large group lessons.

    I had stayed after school for 2-3 hours for a week just dedicating my time to just assembling my new Donor's Choose materials and arranging the room for the ease in usage of these materials. I had the new resources covered until "Revel Day". They were so surprised and happy with the new items in our room. Our room looked fresh and updated instead of tired and old. These resources added excitement and an energetic atmosphere to my classroom. The students were always excited to read with their new lamp and cozy up on their new rug during our Independent Reading time. Often times, I would get a "Yes!" when I would mention our Reading time because they knew they would be able to relax, read their favorite book on their new rug.

    We are currently on 100% virtual learning and have not gone back to the classroom since March. I had to store all my new resources into the closets until the day when we do go back. I can't wait to use these materials again.”

    With gratitude,

    Mrs. Valencia

Our kids are over-stimulated! Help me build a calm, inviting learning environment where students can focus with soft surfaces such as a rug and lamp. I imagine my classroom as place where they can let out a sigh of relief; a tranquil place, full of love, compassion and kindness for not only each other but also nature. I imagine a classroom where students feel comfortable to curl up with their favorite book on our soft, new rug lit by a soft glow of paper lamps. I imagine a classroom that is clean and organized. I imagine a classroom that will stimulate them as problem solvers.
