  • Bountiful Books for Blooming Students

    Funded Jan 7, 2022

    Thank you so much for enabling me to purchase more books for the classroom library! Many of the books purchased with your donation were books with rhymes and this helps students build phonemic awareness. Phonemic awareness is the ability to decipher sounds which is a foundational skill that leads to reading success.

    Reading rhyming books out loud is always so much fun because the kids try to identify what words rhyme. These books also include a lot of repetition which helps early readers build fluency and confidence.

    Thank you once again for your donation. These books will have an everlasting affect!”

    With gratitude,

    Mrs. Kerchner

  • Help! Pencil Sharpener Crisis

    Funded Sep 10, 2019

    Thank you so much for donating to our class so we could have a pencil sharpener and each student could get a large eraser.

    Having a pencil sharpener that works is fantastic! They students are very grateful for your donations. They were really surprised when the packages arrived and they were relieved to finally have a pencil sharpener that works!

    As one student said, "Being able to sharpen my pencils enables me to be more prepared for learning. The big erasers are really helpful too when I have a big mistake I need to erase."

    Thank you once again for thinking of us!”

    With gratitude,

    Mrs. Kerchner

A pencil sharpener and erasers are basic materials that every classroom needs. The pencil sharpener will be used by all students. Each student will also be able to have a large eraser to use for big mistakes. Please help my students be prepared with the tools they need to succeed. Every morning, students prepare for the day by making sure they have two sharpened pencils ready to go. Our classroom pencil sharpener broke on Thursday and we are in immediate need of a new one. Please help us fulfill this basic request; it will be greatly appreciated! You can't believe how a high performing pencil sharpener will not only make the students happy, but the teacher happy too! Rest assured, the supply you are donating will be well used!!
