  • An Organized Classroom is A Happy Classroom

    Funded Feb 11, 2024

    Thank you so much for fully funding this project! I don’t think you understand how beneficial this storage is to our everyday classroom routines, materials, and activities. With these materials I am able to differentiate, keep materials clear and organized, and student can access them independently. I can’t thank you enough and you are truly the best!”

  • Integrating Hands-on Materials to Bring Students Learning to Life!

    Funded Aug 2, 2023

    I wish you could have seen the excitement on my students faces when I showed them these new materials that were so kindly donated to our classroom. The way they worked together, shared materials, and investigated what they were exploring in their small groups was truly amazing. As a teacher I love being able to walk around and listen to their littler conversations when learning together. I can confidently say these materials kept all students engaged, motivated, and happy when learning in the classroom.

    Moving forward I know these materials will become a staple in our learning once we really dive deep into our nonfiction unit. This amazing learning would not be possible if it wasn't for you amazing donors that funded this project. I can not thank you enough and I appreciate you so much!”

  • Differentiated ELA Listening Center for MLL/ELL Students

    Funded Oct 11, 2023

    I shared some photos of my students using the listening center. I wish I took more however, I was to amazed of how engaged, focused, and happy my students were when listening to these stories in the library. This listening center has been life changing and truly amazing for ALL my students in the classroom.

    Daily I am getting students asking if they can use this center. Although, this center is amazing for all my students I have really noticed the benefits it has with my struggling readers and ELL students. This center has developed a sense of motivation and love for reading with these specific students and has really limited them feeling frustrated towards reading. I am so grateful for all the donors that fully funded this project and just know you are making a difference every day with my students literacy and reading skills!”

  • Flexible Seating to Promote Learning in the Classroom

    Funded Apr 7, 2022

    I want to take the time to say THANK YOU! For this amazing donation to our classroom. This flexiable seating has been so beneficial and great for all my students and their learning. Students are focused, calm, and demonstrating enjoyment/motivation when working and reading. Creating a safe and calm learning environment is my number one priority as a teacher and I can confidently say using this flexiable seating in my classroom has helped provide this.

    Having this project funded has also inspired other teachers and staff members in my school building to provide flexiable seating for their students! I love when all team members can come together and find accommodations and modifications that work for ALL our students when learning. Again I want to say thank you so much and my students and I appreciate you so much!”

The resources I have chosen would be very beneficial in my classroom. With having 29 students I have a wide range of skills and differentiated instruction to meet my students needs is a must! The math tools selected would help my students with number identification, number sequencing, and building confidence with their math problem skills. With different ways all students would be able to use these resources and tools when learning in the classroom. As for the books selected I have noticed my students LOVE story time and reading independently. I would love to build my classroom library and provide more multi culture books in Spanish for my ELL students. Lastly with the pandemic and students not being in classroom close to a year I have noticed a lot of social and emotional struggles in the classroom. This year so far has been so amazing but also very overwhelming and stressful for not only teachers but also the students. I want to create a "take a break" area for my students in classroom for when they need to take a break and relax. I feel the bean bag would be awesome for this area for the students to reflect and relax and maybe read a book or draw a picture! Again thank you for your support and I know my students will be very thankful too!
