Funded Aug 10, 2022We are almost halfway through our school year and you wouldn't believe the difference that these headphones have made! In my previous years of teaching, one of the biggest distractions and thieves of learning was low-quality technology and equipment. With these headphones, our groups run smoother, students are able to get on task quicker and stay on it the whole time, and use these interactive learning platforms to the best of their abilities. I am beyonf thrilled to have these in my room and I know the students (and parents!) are equally appreciative! Thank you for investing in my kiddos (this year and the years to come) and funding my porject in such a timely manner. We are so grateful!”
With gratitude,

This classroom project was brought to life by Bill Gates and 8 other donors.Ms. Cassie's Clicking Class
Funded Sep 5, 2020Thank you so much for sponsoring my kiddos! For only being 6 and 7, they have already accomplished much more than some will in their lifetime— they've lived through a pandemic! So far, their school experience has been challenging. They've had to adjust and be flexible and learn in several different ways, sometimes all at once, but, thanks to you and your donations, at least one aspect has been made easy. Through your kind donations, my students have EACH had access to a wireless mouse to help them navigate through the online assignments that are vital to learning and productivity throughout the day. Computer skills aren't ones that you get overnight, and these kiddos could have never imagined that they would have THIS MUCH screen time. All the clicks and sensitivity of the touch pad can make learning difficult and can turn a resource into a hindrance. The wireless mouse has settled some of the student nerves and added a sense of familiarity to this new learning platform. These have been more than we ever could have imagined! So, from everyone in room 211, we are sending a big thank you! Take care of yourself out there!”
With gratitude,
Ms. Cassie

Funded Feb 15, 2020Our class has been abundantly blessed by your generosity! I was a first-year teacher with limited resources and a limited idea of what I was doing, but you made it possible to give my students a better opportunity to learn key skills! This was my first DonorsChoose Project, and it valued nearly $400.00-- a pretty penny if I were to buy this out of pocket. But, thanks to you all, it was funded in A WEEK! After delivery, the impact was obvious!
Our class was fun-loving, energetic, and needed skill practice that was engaging. These magnetic letters and matching boards transformed our classroom and the students participation. Our Word Work time wasn't groaned about because it was a worksheet, but students were excited to learn and the phonics started sticking. The Teacher Table became more than just sight word drills, but composition and construction of familiar and unfamiliar words alike. Reading time wasn't something to be dreaded anymore. I genuinely think that what seems like such a small token transformed our class attitude!”
With gratitude,
Ms. Cassie
