Needed Classroom Supplies
Funded Jan 12, 2024Thank you so much for donating to this grant for these needed classroom supplies. They have all made our classroom run smoother and allowed the students to share their learning in engaging ways. I have saved some serious time sharpening pencils with our new electric pencil sharpener. The clipboard stands allow our classroom to stay neat and organized in between uses. The students love to use dry erase markers on the plastic folders to draw, share their thinking, and stay engaged during my lessons. Having two more wobble stools has also been helpful in allowing more students the opportunity to move around a bit when they just can't sit still any more! There are so many logistics and routines that need to be in place to make everything run smoothly in a classroom so the focus can be on learning. These supplies have definitely made our classroom run more smoothly, which we are SO grateful for! We appreciate your generosity!”

Funded Dec 23, 2023Thank you so very much for your donation to this project. The materials came at the PERFECT time! Our winter in WI was very mild in December, but then the snow and freezing temperatures hit in January. We were stuck inside for four days straight of indoor recess! Without our new games, the students would have very limited choices. They were so excited to play our new board games for indoor recess. I specifically chose games that could be played with four or more players so students could be working on their social and communication skills while playing. While we did have a few disagreements, they were great learning opportunities! The students were able to put their Social Emotional skills in action as they navigated playing together. They had a lot of fun despite being stuck inside for recess for a week. We are forever grateful for your generosity!”
