    Thank you for your donation to our class. Your dedication to providing resources and public education is very much noted.

  • Hands-on Resources!

    Funded Mar 10, 2022

    Thank you for all of the amazing Math tools you donated. My students were so excited when we opened all the manipulatives and games. Your generous donation will provide the opportunity for my class to count and bundle groups of objects with large numbers. They will understand place value easier using the place value mats and disks. These materials will undoubtedly help them build a strong foundation with place value which will set them up for success in subsequent grades. I appreciate your support and dedication to Arizona Public Schools.I cannot thank you enough.”

  • Looking For Some Wiggle Room

    Funded Aug 14, 2019

    My students and I love the flexible seating that you purchased for the classroom. They were so excited to see the colorful floor chairs, bright green ball chairs and the bean bag chairs.

    Your chairs contribute to the calm, positive learning environment I strive to create for the students. Our classroom is a warm welcoming place where their bodies can now have movement as they sit. They are especially helpful in allowing those with sensory and attention/hyperactive disorders to move freely and comfortably while remaining seated. Once again,thank you for your gift and for supporting my wonderful students.”

Students in my class are given freedom to find a space where they can work and do their best. Currently, some of their favorite spaces are tall tables, with stools, beach chairs and yoga mats with clip boards. The current seating, however, does not have a lot of variety and doesn’t allow for much physical movement. Many students in my class have high energy levels and are easily distracted. Your donation will give these students more fun choices and most importantly, a seat that allows a release of their excess energy while allowing to maintain focus, concentration and minimizing distractions.
