Sensory Tools Galore!
Funded Oct 23, 2023Thank you so much for all your kind donations! My students have been using the chair cushions to help them move their bodies while still being able to focus on the work at hand. They really love the chair bands that allow them to bounce their feet to keep them moving while doing their work. They were so excited about the sensory tools to use on top of the desks to keep their hands busy while completing their work. All of these different tools have made such an impact on my student that like to move their bodies while they do their work. We are so grateful for everything we have received! The box of pencils have been such a godsend, too because somehow pencils disappear on a regular basis. Thank you so much from the bottom of our hearts!”

Funded Sep 9, 2021We can't thank you enough for raising our math learning to a whole new level! My students love using the magnetic base ten materials, magnetic charts, and magnetic pointers to engage in learning. All these fun tools make the learning so much better! These tools help my students move their bodies which helps them take in all that they are learning. The magnetic caddy is conveniently located under our new magnetic easel. This helps keep our materials organized daily. It is so wonderful to be able to offer my students different resources for learning. We are all so grateful for your kindness!
Thank you so much!”

Exciting Sight Word Fun!
Funded Nov 28, 2021We are so grateful for your kindness! The children absolutely love using the new magnetic wipe boards and letters for small reading group. This is yet another way to keep my students engaged in their learning. They get so excited to showcase their new skills on a regular basis. They also love using the colored dry erase markers to also show their understanding as well. This gives them more opportunities to move their bodies in making words. The children are just so happy using their own little erasers, too!
They truly love all the new materials!
We are very appreciative of your generosity!”

Funded Jan 8, 2022We are so grateful for all your kindness and generosity! The sensory tools bring such calmness to my students to help them focus and engage in their learning. They have the necessary tools such as pencils and power strips to be able to engage in lessons. These are some basic tools but are so very important to have on hand. The children are also enjoying using the sight word rings to help them acquire new sight words which make up so much of what they read. They love to quiz each other using the cards, too.
Thank you, again, for being so giving to my students!”

Funded Sep 28, 2020Thank you so much for all the wonderful activities and sensory tools! It all played a huge part in making my students time at home learning and hybrid learning that much better!
The excellent activities I was able to purchase using my $100.00 Teachers Pay Teachers gift card has helped enormously. I selected activities for reading and math. My students always commented on how fun the activities were. The Time Tracker was a great visual so they knew how much time they needed in order to get their assignments done. This is fabulous to use in person as well. The sensory tools have proved to help my students focus better whether they were remote learning or in person. The laminated pouches are fantastic because they preserve the activities and games so they don't get ruined. And one can never have enough glue sticks!
We are just so grateful to have all these great tools to use. I know that my students have enjoyed all their new items, they feel so lucky!”

New Technology for Remote/Hybrid Learning
Funded Sep 17, 2020Thank you so much for all this amazing technology! It has worked wonders during remote learning and hybrid learning. It's amazing what can happen when you have the right tools!
The ring light, microphone, head set, echo dot, computer stand, and the outlets surge cord have all played a part in making my teaching effective for my students through the computer screen and in person. The ring light provided extra light so my students could see me better through the computer screen. The microphone amplified my voice so my students could hear my voice clearly which was a huge factor during phonics lessons. The head set allowed me to hear my students answers and I could give them immediate feedback. The echo dot was a huge hit as we played a lot of music to help my students keep motivated to work.
It really has taken a village to get through this past year. We are forever grateful for your kindness. Please know that we have benefitted greatly from having all of this new technology!”

Funded Sep 16, 2020My students and I can't thank you enough for the awesome white wipe boards, lapboard erasers, and dry erase markers. All these materials have proved to be so helpful in the learning at home this year. It gave the children a little piece of school!
This year has particularly challenging given the children were learning from home. These materials allowed them to participate in the lesson with me over the computer. It was so awesome to see them engaging in the lessons.
Lastly, the kids were able to use these materials for all the subjects which was amazing. It also allowed me to get instant feedback as to whether they understood the lesson or not(showing me their boards).
Thank you again for all your support!!!”
