  • Gardening Hands On Learning !

    Funded Nov 1, 2024

    I am thrilled to share the wonderful impact your generous contributions have had on our class. The students are truly benefiting from the gardening supplies, and they are excited to learn about plants and all the elements necessary for their growth. Your support is helping them thrive and explore new interests!

    Additionally, they have been experimenting with seeds while taking care of their seedlings in our class. These will later be transplanted into our outdoor garden and eventually sent home, where they will continue caring for their plants. Thank you very much for your kindness.”

  • Having Fun with Aerodynamics!

    Funded Sep 20, 2024

    I am ecstatic to report how much our students have enjoyed and how involved they have been in their aerodynamics lessons. Their curiosity in the mechanics of flight has piqued greatly. The books about airplanes and how objects can fly have allowed us to read and leanr more about this amazing field. Some of them have stated that they want to become pilots, and they have been asking questions and sharing what they know and what they would like to learn. Without your generosity, we would not have been able to learn about aerodynamics in these classes. Furthermore, they were able to put into practice what they learned by making their own kite and airplane. Thank you amazing donors.”

  • Back To Basics!

    Funded Jun 30, 2024

    I can't express how happy I am to tell you how much our little ones have gained from using the resources you kindly made available. With the markers, brushes and paper they have been able to produce artwork. Additionally, we have been able to utilize the label pockets and badges for their names and positions. Furthermore, several significant teaching records and children's artwork have been saved with the use of the laminating machine. Children have also been allowed to freely create original artwork during their choice time. They can't wait to explore the art section. And because of your kindness, they have everything they need to finish their artwork. Thank you, from the bottom of my heart!”

    I'm ecstatic to report on our students' improvements. They are being taught how to show empathy for their fellow students. They have benefited greatly from the usage of puppets and literature. They have practiced the various ways they might express empathy for one another and are thrilled to listen to the stories read aloud. They have been practicing helping each other as they encounter situations where they have to show emphathy and be compassionate with each other. Without your assistance, I could not have made this feasible. From the bottom of my heart, thank you.”

    I am very excited to share the great outcome after we received our laptop. My students were super excited to find out they got one. They have been using it to continue to learn about letter sounds, numbers, shapes and so much more. Additionally, we have used it for the to have a visual for music and movement with the use of a projector. They are more eager to work additional time on the activity of their choice during their learning center time. I am very pleased to be able to provide them with this additional learning resource and can only provide them with these resources with your help. From the bottom of my heart, Thank you.”

  • No Clean Clothes

    Funded May 8, 2024

    Thanks to your generosity our students have learned about how machines help make our lives easier. They were very interested to learn about how washing machines have evolved and most importantly, they were able to help wash classroom items. They created their own waiting list to be able to use the tubs and washing boards. They are thrilled to use them and be helpful in the classroom. I cannot thank you enough! this project not only was it fun but it helped them learn about machines and how people can make good use of technology for the better. Additionally, children were able to make the connection to how some of them have seen their parents wash some clothing items at home by hand. Similarly, this lead to other conversations about who has a machine at home and who goes to the Laundromat. Overall, I am very pleased with the outcome of this project and cannot have made this possible without your help!”
