Mastering Math and Literacy Skills Through Technology!
Funded May 5, 2020Thanks a lot for your donation! These devices will make reading a fun and positive experience, critical to students engagement. My students will be able to use technology to sharpen basic skills and also will be able to explore, learn and practice concepts taught in the different subjects. They will be able to showcase their work and reflect on their learning by airdropping them right on the smart board using the apple box. Besides, I will be able to use infinite videos and educational activities to support their learning, from any of my devices, just transferring them directly to the smart board through the apple box. Hopefully our year will be full of great experiences and opportunities for learning thanks to your donation.”

Funded Dec 10, 2019I am very sorry for this late note of appreciation as I was sick. Spanish is the native language of my students. My little darlings came into my Kindergarten Bilingual class with an ample oral vocabulary. But in order to have a strong transition into English, they need to have strong abilities in their native language in all the modalities (listening, speaking, reading, and writing). Though they have plenty of abilities in the first two modalities (listening and speaking) in their native language, reading and writing need to be achieved by them. They can only do it while being immersed in Spanish literacy. Therefore, you have contributed enormously to make that possible.
My bilingual students, especially the newcomers, have been very excited with the new collection of Spanish books. These books have completed our classroom library as there was a lack of Spanish materials in our class, especially at my students reading levels. Scholars have been able to select books in their native language and continue growing as learners, not only in the classroom but also at home while borrowing books daily from the Spanish library. Parents at the same time feel very comfortable discussing the texts with their children because the content is in their own language, in some cases the only language they know. This opportunity not only has been beneficial for my students academically; it has also increased the bond among my parents and their children.
We, my babies and I, are extremely thankful for your generosity and contribution. Thanks a lot!”

Learning and Working With Colors!
Funded Dec 3, 2019My students and I are immensely grateful for the new printer and extra ink. Our class looks very colorful! Our school has not color- printer assigned for teachers. All work printed is black and white. But with this new printer, our class has changed noticeably. Scholars in K021 are very enthusiastic working in lively and exciting activities.
This printer has given me the opportunity to provide eye-catching educational tools to my little ones, such as seat name tags, pencil case tags, small charts, cards, certificates, as well as individual colorful activities in the different subjects that are taught in class every day.
We truly thank you for your generosity and support in providing us this new printer that has changed our environment completely.”

Funded Nov 9, 2019My students and I are so grateful of your donation. It has allowed my pupils to be more organized and aware of pieces completed, the work done by each of them in each subject area, and more than anything the folders has provided them the good habit of keeping their pieces of work organized and in their correct place. Each color represents a subject. The classroom also looks inviting due to the nicest colors that these folders have. My kindergartens love to place their work inside their folders while feeling very proud of their work. At the end of every session they look forward to place their work inside their folder. We thank you again for your kindness and good heart in helping us obtained these folders.”

Funded Oct 30, 2019I greatly thank you for your generosity and kindness in helping me obtain the iPads. These iPads have contributed to my students journey into a second language acquisition. My students now have access, in partnerships, to web -based learning sites such as Starfall, Epic, IXL, Education, The Learning Patio, iReady, and bookflix among others.
My kindergarteners have been able to read books at their individual reading level on line in English and Spanish; books that interest them, books read to them, audiobooks, and educational videos about non-fiction concepts. My newcomers are learning the letters names and sounds of the alphabet with visuals and songs. They also practice math and science concepts. My students have improved a lot in the different subject areas since I have incorporated the iPads in their daily schedule. The use of technology has ignited more their interest for learning, therefore their levels has improved thanks to you!”
