Goodies for Growing Readers
Funded Nov 28, 2024Thank you so much for your generosity with funding our project. Even the smallest amount creates a huge difference. Our students come to intervention with excitement and participate enthusiasticlly knowing what is in store by the end of the week!
We use these prizes to help drive our instruction. When we see our students faces light up when we stock the treasure box with new items it is truly so rewarding and it could not be done without your help! When seeing all grade levels everyday it can make it challenging to keep our prize box up to snuff.. so we thank you for your help in growing our readers!”

Building Their Stamina!
Funded Mar 8, 2024Thank you for being so giving! The magic tree house book was the first chapter book some of my English Language Learners were able to read. We read this as a class and it really built our classroom community... they looked forward to reading a chapter everyday!
As their end of year, going to 3rd grade, gift I gave them their second book I received from this project— How Not to Start 3rd Grade, and they were so excited!!
Again, thank you for your generosity and helping build our stamina and our learners grow!”

Essentials for the Beginning of the Year!!
Funded Aug 15, 2023Thank you so much for giving to my students. We are really grateful for all the opportunities your materials have given us. In second grade students learn to add details and with the markers that were donated my students are able to do just that-- give details!
Also, my students are able to have the opportunity to express themselves with bright colors with both the markers and the paper provided!
My students use the composition notebooks daily to write their language arts notes in them! I have really tried to stay on top of interactive notebooks this year and this donation was a huge help!”

This classroom project was brought to life by Kleenex and 2 other donors.Revamping Word Work!
Funded Jan 30, 2023thank you for funding our project! I am so appreciative of your generosity! My students are much more engaged while working during their independent stations. They were so excited to get to work when I showed them all our new materials!
My students are able to choose what activity they would like to do to help them better their reading skills! This allows them to work more independently and take action of their learning. I even have some students ask me if they can work at this word work station during their free time-- I love it!
So, thank you again for all your support and kindness to our classroom!”

New Year- Fresh Start
Funded Dec 13, 2022Thank you for choosing to donate to my project— New Year, Fresh Start. My students are really benefiting from your donations.
We use our headphones daily when working on our Chromebook's. We use two different programs that help our reading skills and by having individual headphones my students are able to focus so much more.
The colored card stock paper had been a huge help in making activities more engaging by catching their eye on bright paper.
The dry erase pocket protectors are so helpful in allowing me to reduce the times I have to print an activity since we can just reuse.”

Let's Anchor Our Learning!
Funded Aug 28, 2022Thank you again for being so generous and providing for our class. Each day we get to either create a new anchor chart to help ground our learning or we get to review one we've already made.
Together, we get to generate ideas to help each other learn new, exciting topics. Anchor charts provide examples, vocabulary, pictures, and are the best proof for collaboration in the classroom.
I've added a few picture so you're able to get a visual aid of what we use these materials for. Each day you are making an impact in our classroom because of your generosity.”

Organization is Key!
Funded May 28, 2022Thank you so much for contributing to my organization project!! It has allowed me to maximize student materials.
When the year begins, I am excited to share these organizational tools with my students. I think it would be great to have the students be able to grab materials on their own and know exactly what is in each box.
Eventually I'd like to do this for each subject but for now ELA and Math were my priority.
Your contributions make a huge difference already and the new year hasn't even begun yet!”

Flexible Seats Create Flexible Minds
Funded Dec 1, 2021Thank you so much for being so generous for our class! We asked for flexible seating so that we could focus more during seated activities but also have the capability to move. When my students first heard we were getting flexible seats they were so excited!!! "Can we bring them home?", they asked.
We use our seats daily! We were able to get five wobbly chairs, 5 bouncy ball chairs, and movement caps for the bottom of the chair legs. These tools have helped my busy students maintain their focus and ability to stay engaged.
While I'd love to have one for each student in our class they have no problem sharing between friends and taking turns. This has been a game changer of us and it's truly so amazing to know that it was with the help of our community.”
