  • It’s Snack Time!

    Funded Sep 29, 2022

    We are thankful for your donation to my project "snack time". In my class, we have snack every day. The majority of my students do not bring snack from home and are relying on the snack from the class bin, which was made possible through your kind donation. The students in my class enjoy the cookies and are grateful to you for donating it to our class. You have made it possible for students in my class to enjoy snack every day, and for your kindness, my students and I are forever thankful and grateful.”

    With gratitude,

    Ms. Matthew

  • The “Write” Supplies For Budding Artists

    Funded Sep 29, 2022

    Words cannot express how grateful I am for your support and generosity. My students are so excited to be able to have the tools they need to grow. For example, many of my students had difficulties holding a pencil. Now, with the pencil grip, my students find it easier to hold a pencil and are now making progress with forming letters. Some of my students had also difficulties holding the regular pencil. Having the Triconderoga

    tri-write beginners pencil has solved that problem. The shape and size of the pencils, make it easier for my students to grip. My students also enjoy playing with play-doh and we are able to use the plastic cookie cutters to make letters and different shapes, making learning fun and exciting for them. The pop-its are a huge success with my students and we use it as both an educational tool and a fun (free time) tool.

    Once again, thank you for your support .”

  • MATH MANIPULATIVES

    Funded Sep 29, 2022

    I cannot express how grateful we are to you for your kind generosity. Your donation allowed my students to have the much needed math manipulatives in our classroom. My students enjoy playing with the manipulatives especially the counting bears. It is a bit "hit" in my classroom. Not only do we use it for counting, we also use it for colors and sorting. Because of the diverse needs of my students, one student in particular uses only the linking cubes when working math addition problems or when showing how to write numbers, while many students love working with the pop it, not just for math, but as a relaxing tool. It is for these reasons that I am truly thankful that you donated to my classroom. Thank you for giving my students the opportunity to learn math in their own learning style.”

  • A Dash of Color to Bring Our Classroom to Life!

    Funded Sep 29, 2022

    Thank you for your generosity. Your support of my classroom has made it so much easier for my students to learn and grow. Having a printer in the classroom means that it will be easier for me to make copies of worksheet and homework pages for my students . In addition, the color copier brought a dash of color to my classroom, making learning much more beautiful for my students. I will forever be grateful for your generosity since it has given my students the opportunity to grow.

    Again, thank you for donating to my classroom”

  • Budding Artists

    Funded Sep 17, 2022

    Thank you for donating art supplies to my class. Words cannot express how grateful I am for your support and generosity. My students are always eager to share their work, and with these materials it has made it so much easier to do so. For example, some of the supplies are being used to create amazing projects, the card stock is being used to print work for centers for my students. Also, the paint has been used to create amazing projects such as the Thank You card to my donors. The washable dot markers are used to help my students identify letters and numbers, and my students are thankful to have the aprons to protect their clothing during art or painting time. Once again, thank you for your support.”

  • Unicorns Are Magical

    Funded Feb 7, 2022

    I just wand to thank you for your wonderful contribution to my classroom. The funding made it possible for my students to receive supplies they needed to help them succeed in the classroom. My students were very excited when I opened the boxes and explained to them that these donations are from generous people who wanted them to succeed. They are able to use the dry erase makers on a daily basis to demonstrate their learning. In addition, the bins are used to store their reading materials, making it easier for them to access them.

    Again, THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR YOUR GENEROSITY!!”

    With gratitude,

    Ms. Matthew

The materials and supplies will be used on a daily basis to help improve my students learning. I know exactly where everything will go and what and how everything will be used. We just need your help in getting everything through our door! The 3 tier utility cart will make my teaching more efficient. Having the cart will wheels and storage area will give me access to my material while I am teaching. The paper, pencil sharpener, dry erase markers, and other supplies of the sort will be used by the students, so that they can work effortlessly. For example, because of covid, sharing items are difficult, hence my students will have their own dry erase makers and boards. I make a huge amount of copies for both classwork and homework, so the copy paper will be very beneficial for that purpose. I make copies from my home copier using a great deal of ink. The ink will ensure that I am not always dipping into my pocket to replace ink on a monthly basis. The donations to this project will help to improve my students' learning. We will use all these materials in our classroom to help us become better learners. As a new teacher, I want to give my students the opportunity that they deserve - to have resources that they need in order to learn.
