Help Organize My Class!
Funded Jan 30, 2024Thank you so much for the generous donations. Without your help I couldn't get the much needed bookshelves for my classroom. I now have space to put up all of my Braille book, that my visually impaired student requires. The way I am able to stand them up will keep the spine of the book intact for years to come. I am also able to put tasks into the tall bookshelf and the students can pull out and work on a task. The independence that my students have grown in is such an amazing thing to see. Thank you so much.”

Funded Aug 3, 2023Thank you so much for all your donations. Since bringing in these items, my students have enjoyed the use of them so much. My students need extra support in all areas in the school setting. I wanted to focus on fine motor items so they could strengthen their muscle tone. I have students who have begun walking more in their walker and able to grasp the bars more. It's been so amazing to watch their growth. Thank you again for all of these amazing items. The impact is so much more than just the classroom, but extends into the community and at home. Getting messages of thanks from parents is so rewarding. Thanks again!”

Funded May 11, 2023It means so much to have these items donated to my classroom. My students have already started to enjoy these amazing items in class. I got a bunch of amazing items for them to work on their academics but I also wanted to make sure we had enough fun items. The most treasured items are the musical instruments. I cannot thank you enough for this. When we push into music class, the regular instruments are a bit too hard for them to use, but these are perfect for them. They can play and participate and feel like they are part of the class now. The happiest part of my day is seeing how excited they get when they get to play with their musical instruments. Thank you again for everything that you've donated. Without your support my class wouldn't be able to work on their IEP goals directly, they wouldn't have these hand held objects and their clothes would be filled with paints. The aprons are a bonus. Thank you for all your generous donations. My class wouldn't run as smoothly without your support.”

Funded Mar 6, 2021Thank you all so much for the generous donations. As you know I asked for hands on manipulative to help my students learn in a fun and exciting way. When I totaled everything up I was overwhelmed at the price, as a teacher for students with Special Needs you always need new items so they are always wanting to learn. Teachers are expected to purchase these items on their own, and this was the first donors choose I had ever done. I just want to say how grateful I am for these donations.
When I received the packages I was so excited to show my group of students all the new items we had. All of my students instantly found something that they loved. I had one student who had a hard time sitting still while I was presenting that loved the lap dog. He would sit with it on his lap while I would be in front presenting that lesson. I had another student who used the number bots as a learning tool. I thought the students would love to see the numbers transform into little robots, but he actually used them as a problem, quickly turning the numbers into an equation, solving it, and then turning them into the robots. It was amazing to see how his brain used it. Thank you so much for those! I had another student needing extra help with number recognition, which is why I got a couple items that would help that student achieve her goals. Worked so well, she thought she was playing, but she learned really quickly.
Thank you all for your generous donations. Without your help I wouldn't have been able to successfully meet so many IEP goals so quickly. I appreciate the fact that you have no idea who I am and where I teach but the fact that you saw the need for my class and decided to donate is beyond amazing. Thank you again.”
