• Technology Typhon

  Funded Nov 13, 2024

  Thank you so much for your generous support in funding my project. I have loved having the opportunity to use these materials in class and letting my students see the versatility it brings to the classroom. The document camera has been helpful in my transition to using a ClearTouch in the classroom that doesn't allow for easy camera use in class. With it's compact design it can fit on my desk and be used on a whim or put out of the way if needed. I don't have to add more obstructions to the front of the room with the use of this compact camera.

  I am excited to fully use it as I build my lessons so my students can follow along more closely and use their own work to as examples in the class. I am also thrilled to use the Velcro dots to add materials and interactive materials on my carpet wall in my room. It has been fun to use them and my students like that they can access to these materials and don't need a teachers help to move them from place to place.

  Again, thank you for your help and support in aiding my classroom it has been a great addition and I can't wait to use it more.”

  With gratitude,

• Stellar STEM Supplies

  Funded Feb 14, 2023

  Thank you for helping me provide the supplies of STEM toys for my class. We have used them for indoor recess and I have seen a great growth of creative thinking during those days they can't go outside. I have also seen team work bloom with some of my quieter kids.

  My kids were so excited to get more STEM toys and see what kid of things they could create. They were so pumped to show off their creations and have asked me multiple times if we could have a indoor recess so they can have unlimited access to the toys.

  I have also used some of the dice for math lessons, or fast finisher activities to stregthen their basic addition and subtraction skills.

  It has been so fun to see their reaction to learning while using these supplies and have enjoyed teaching with them as well. Thank you again for your help and support in this!”

• Engineering Energy!

  Funded Sep 28, 2022

  Thank you so much for the support in helping my students get STEM toys in the classroom. I have been amazed at the creativity and ingenuity they have shown whenever they are playing. These students are always asking me when we can work with them and it has warmed my heart to see the excitement, they have for making and creating things from the blocks, Legos, and magnetics tiles. I have been able to use them for indoor recesses where they can play with toys that make them think and grow as well as during our science curriculum. It has been an amazing addition to my classroom and I can' t thank you enough for your support.”

• Math Mania!

  Funded Jul 5, 2022

  Thank you so much for your support and help with my Math Mania Project. It has helped so much in my classroom in engaging students learning during our math lessons. They have also been used in other activities and lesson such as language arts with the white boards, and interactive computer time for the head phones.

  My students have been so excited to use the different materials and love seeing the uses they can get out of them for each lesson. Currently we are working on subtraction and have used the counters as a visual representations for that concept. We have also loved the dice for fun math games and team building activities. They have been thrilled with the use of the little containers that they each get that hold some of their materials, makes it so much easier for them to store and keep track of. The blocks have been great in teaching them place value and counting by tens. It has been a gift that just keeps on giving and has made my classroom a more inviting and engaging place to learn and grow. Thank you again for your help and your thoughtfulness in contributing to my classroom and my students.”
