  • Promoting Great Learners

    Funded Dec 26, 2024

    We would like to thank you for your help in making learning exciting and fun. My students love their new punch cards.

    Scholars receive a punch card for completing a lesson on their iPads. After completing a card students will receive a prize from the treasure box and their name is added to the weekly raffle.

    Scholars love their new play doh during relax time. If a student is having a hard time they can get their play doh and a cookie cutter then fill out a reflecting sheet of how they feel. But works great.”

  • Hear E, Hear E

    Funded Feb 8, 2023

    We would like to thank you so much for your generous donation in our classroom. The headphones helped a lot for the children to enjoy learning in comfort and to be able to concentrate on their tablets without being distracted by others.

    My students have gone up to levels since they have been using the tablets. They are able to relax in a comfort place in the room, rather it be the carpet, a stool or their tables. The kids love their new headphones and what they are able to learn. They even get to have down time where they play a learning game. Thank you!”

  • Reading in Comfort to Develop Great Minds!

    Funded Dec 1, 2022

    Thank you, thank you, thank you! My students love the chairs. We had to set up a sign up for students to take turns sitting on them. Students take a chair and take it to the rug or a cozy corner to work on their lessons on their tablets or read a book. Students have learned to appreciate using their manners and helping a friend to set up the chairs. Students are able to pick their level of comfort by laying the chair back or setting it up, in a up right position. My students and I would truly like to thank you for the chairs.”

I am requesting a light table and light table tray. Students will use these materials in school to learn how to manipulate materials to form shapes, letters and objects. They will be able to make connections to ideas at home and share with family. This would be connecting school to home with sensory play. Children will be able to learn social skills and share with other students to build friendships and work on social emotional skills. Children will be able to talk about what they see and what materials are used and to use other materials to make item home.
