Thank you for helping me to make our classroom a little bit cozier. The children were excited to have a larger rug for small group activities. They love the colorful smily faces that adorn the rug. I have added it to our library as there are just enough smily faces for each child to have their own spot when we do read alouds in that area. Students have enjoyed playing on the rug with blocks, practicing their yoga poses, and reading books on the rug every morning. The rugs beautiful colors match our classroom decor perfectly and added to our comfy cozy classroom vibes.”
I deeply apologize for the delay, this year school year has truly been a whirlwind. I want to take this time to thank you for donating to my project. The materials I received helped me to set up my new 3K classroom. We have used the magnetic strips for our centers, students place their magnets on the strip to show they have chosen a specific center to play at for choice time. The large magnetic visual timer has helped us to keep track of time when eating lunch, during choice time, and during nap time. Thank you for your continued support!”

Thank you for generously donating to our project. Your donation has allowed us to purchase flexible writing surfaces for our students. Students were especially excited to start using the colorful acrylic clipboard. Using the colorful clipboards they can keep all their drafts together and work comfortably from anywhere in the classroom. They thought the lap desks were very cool and it provides a more sturdy writing surface option for students who way want to sit in the rug area, or somewhere on the floor of the classroom.”

Thank you for donating to our project. Our new EL curriculum requires students to write their own books about the topics they are studying. For example when studying trees student choose one type of tree and they write a book of facts about the tree. They use collage and crayons to create their illustrations as well. Now that we have these materials our little authors will feel as though they are publishing their own books once their hard work is bound together. Having these materials to spiral bind our students writing will also add to our end of unit writing celebrations!”

First I would like to take the time to thank you for donating to my project. Having this color printer has made creating resources for our curriculum one hundred times easier. I have been able to print color labels for our centers, communication boards for non-verbal students, and color photos to match our weekly vocabulary words. I have also been able to print parent letters with eye catching images. The printer has allowed me to create colorful assessment materials for my students, which keep their attention much better than black and white materials.”

Thank you for donating to my classroom project! My 3K class of eager learners have thoroughly enjoyed listening to music in our classroom. The speaker has helped us to significantly reduce screen time.
Students have been listening to Disney piano music on the speaker during lunch and nap tome. We have used the speaker outside on the playground for dancing. We have also been using the speaker in music class to learn new songs and dances!
We greatly appreciate that you took time out of your busy life to read and donate to our classroom project.”

This year we will be starting an all new curriculum called Into Reading. What's great about this program is that it has an online component, iRead, to meet each student at their individual level from K-2. This is great for advance readers who need a challenge, or struggling readers who need to review letter sounds.
ESL learners in my class will greatly benefit through the use of this program as it has a Spanish support option available.
Studies have shown that students that spend 20 minutes a day using iRead will be on reading level by the end of each school year. These Fire tablets will guarantee that I am able to give all of my students access to the program at least twice a week, and thus bettering their probability of reaching their reading level goals by the end of the year.
