Test Success!
Funded Dec 27, 2022Thank you so much for helping me to honor our students with the testing materials for this school year! It meant so much to them to be able to take their state assessments with all of the wonderful donations you made. They especially loved the peppermints as an extra brain boost.
Everything you donated to our project, "Test Success", was graciously used and definitely needed to ensure that our students were prepared and ready to do their very best on the state test! We will continue to use these resources as we have plenty to carry us throughout the rest of the year and on to the next! We thank you tremendously and from the bottom of our hearts!”

Listen and Learn!
Funded Dec 21, 2022This project has allowed our students to assess in a small, yet conducive environment. Our scholars use the headsets in multiple ways inside and outside the classroom. This technology has helped our students learn their letters and sounds in addition to assisting them with working in small groups with their teachers.
The most exciting part about this product is that students get additional opportunities to listen and learn in exciting new ways, and not only do they get to share it with their teachers, but they also get to share it with their parents and families as well.”

Did Someone Mention Intervention?
Funded Aug 28, 2022This reading project has really allowed me to introduce my students to the foundational skills of reading from phonics/phonemic awareness to comprehension. I am able to assess them at their individual grade levels thereby giving them opportunities to grow at various reading levels weekly.
The work of teachers and interventionists is never done, but with wonderful donors like you who understand the impact of Tier 1 quality instruction and high quality reading materials in a classroom the achievement gap can close incrementally.”

Vocab Dab
Funded Nov 4, 2021Thank you for donating the much needed resources to my wonderful students and our classroom. Sometimes, we don't know where our help comes from, but then, organizations like "DonorsChoose" gives teachers an opportunity to create something magical in our classrooms and in the lives of our students. From the bottom of our hearts, my students and I would like to say, "Thank you for all you do and for all you've done to make this year so special and bright for us!" May God continue to bless each and everyone of you who have helped to make a difference in the life of a child.”

COVID Classroom Cares
Funded Oct 5, 2021Thank you sooo much for donating these items for Covid Cares in my classroom. The pandemic has been a continuous struggle for all of us, and my students show up each and every day ready to learn because of your kindness, generosity, and support!! Without you none of this would be possible, and my classroom would not nearly be the safe space it has become because of you.
Words can't begin express how much my class has benefited from Donors Choose and your choice to help find as many projects as you have for my students this school term!”

This classroom project was brought to life by #TeachHealthy with Nature Made and 3 other donors.Reading is "Yummy"!
Funded Jan 3, 2020Thank you for supplying a classroom set of the graphic novel, "Yummy!" for my 10th grade students at Clarksdale High. Not only did my students enjoy reading this text, but my 13-year-old daughter, Hayley, did as well. "Yummy!" encouraged my students to reimagine realistic fiction/nonfiction in a totally unique and engaging way. My students were completely and utterly grateful for the donations DonorsChoose has made to their classroom library this year. As this was one of my first successfully submitted and funded projects, you can imagine how it made me feel to know there are other people who want to make meaningful contributions to the lives of these children, who are also my students!”

Can Ya Hear Me?
Funded Jan 25, 2020The purchase of new headsets for my students has changed my classroom culture and climate tremendously. My students had been been completing their online assignments and assessments with increased focus and attention. As their teacher, I began to notice a drastic change in their classroom performance and their learning abilities.
With the use of the headsets, students were able to maximize their learning with the extraction of external noise between partners or group members who needed to work individually or in pairs. In addition, they were also able to use them when online classroom incentives were made readily available.
Several students in each class warmed up to the new technology and were very surprised I had even considered reaching out to get assistance for such a purchase. They wanted to know where did the headsets come from, and how was I able to purchase them. In response to their reaction, I immediately said to them, "DonorsChoose.org made all the difference".”
