  • We...sniffle...Want to...sniffle...Write!

    Funded Aug 28, 2022

    Your donation was so appreciated and we feel blessed to have you support us in our writing stations. Students were so excited to see our new materials and in turn were excited to test them out as soon as possible.

    Students were most excited to use their new Writing Station Folder to check their work. The clipboards were also exciting because they were able to move around the room for flexible seating options. I was so appreciative for the tissues for their noses!

    Thank you so much for everyhitng you do to help support our future leaders!”

    With gratitude,

    Ms. Whitmore

  • Help Me Keep My Students Engaged!

    Funded Feb 10, 2021

    This technology helped me to reach my students in ways that were engaging and beneficial for their virtual learning needs. They appreciated how the software made their learning engaging and interactive.

    My students were most excited by the ability to manipulate different digital means of text by utilizing digital highlighters and quiz modes.

    One student, in particular, struggled at first with being about to maintain focus with virtual learning. After I employed Nearpod in my lessons, he became more engaged and participated daily.”

    With gratitude,

    Ms. Whitmore

    This classroom project was brought to life by The Center for Disaster Philanthropy and one other donor.
As my school is fully virtual, I need help to purchase digital platforms, like Nearpod, that will help keep my students engaged with our lessons. We have tried it out and my students love the different activities they have. I like how easily I can create accessible lessons that engage my students. My students ask every day if our lesson will be in Nearpod, and they have told me how it makes it easy to keep up with the digital format of our lessons. Nearpod is a digital platform that has various student-centered activities that are engaging and can be diverse for different learners. My students and I love the Collaboration Board for discussions and to share our thoughts. Their favorite activity is Time to Climb, they enjoy choosing their characters and seeing who everyone picked. They encourage and cheer their classmates on as they climb up the mountain. However, with the basic plan, there is limited storage and in order for us to engage with a lesson daily, we need more space!
