Classroom Essentials: Fueling Teacher Success
Funded Aug 14, 2024I would like to express my gratitude for your generous donation for essential teaching materials for our classroom. Your support has truly made a significant impact in my daily work as a teacher compared to previous years. These materials enable me to feel more organized and prepared to implement our curriculum effectively.
I was extremely excited to see all the materials that arrived to my classroom. I immediately proceeded to organize all my teaching supplies in the storage bins for easy access later during lesson planning. I laminated my sign-language alphabet to preserve it longer before posting it in our classroom and made flashcards with the rest.
I organized and stored other materials according to when I will be using them to implement the curriculum. Students were also very excited to see all the supplies we received and were even more excited to see their names on some of the stuff such as the Helping Hands Helping Chart and Name Calling Sticks. We are having so much fun using the magnetic ten frames to learn or numbers and quantities, to name a few. And I can't wait to use the Family-Words Chart during the spring time to help my young students start learning how to read simple small CVC words.
With these essential teaching materials, I am better prepared and equipped to create structured and intentional lesson plans, streamline daily activities, and focus more on engaging each child in meaningful ways. Having access to quality instructional resources has helped me feel confident and ready to meet the needs of my students each day. Your contribution has also provided the tools I need to support a positive, efficient, and stimulating learning environment that nurtures every child's growth.
Thank you for investing in our classroom and in my ability to give my best to these young learners. Your kindness and generosity are deeply appreciated, and your support will continue to have a lasting impact on the lives of our students.”

Funded Aug 14, 2024On behalf of my preschool students and our entire classroom community, I want to extend my heartfelt gratitude for your generous donation of school supplies. Your support has made a meaningful difference in our daily learning environment.
With the supplies you provided, our students have had access to essential materials that enrich their learning experience. From creative art projects to engaging hands-on activities, your donations have allowed our young learners to explore, create, and grow in ways that truly inspire them. They look forward to exploring during centers time as they love creating a variety of art projects from drawings, paintings, to crafts, to name a few, that they excitedly take home to show their siblings and parents. They enjoy art activities as for some of our students, these materials are resources they may not have otherwise had access to at home, and it's heartbreaking to see their excitement and pride as they work and learn.
We all look forward to creating wonderful and fun project/crafts coming up for the Holidays. We currently are prepping materials to get a head start on these Holiday activities for students to create and gift to their parents during the Holidays.
Your kindness and support have also alleviated some of the burdens on our classroom resources, enabling us to focus on what matters most- fostering a nurturing and stimulating environment. Thank you once again for being a part of our journey and for helping us make a positive impact on the lives of our preschoolers. Your generosity will have lasting effects on their overall preschool experience and beyond.”

Funded May 8, 2024I am writing to express my heartfelt gratitude for your generous contribution to my DonorsChoose project, "Nutritional Snacks for Pre-K Students". Your support means the world to us and has made a significant impact on our students by filling their bellies with yummy snacks and has helped us create a more positive and energized learning environment.
Thanks to your kindness, we were able to start off the new school year with healthy and delicious snacks which are helping our students stay focused on learning rather than on being hungry. They look forward to snack time every day by asking "what's for snack today?". These snacks help them get through a long day at school and before embarking on the long bus ride home. They are loving so much the delicious variety of snacks some students have even mentioned that it was their first time having some of those snacks such as the Pop-tarts, veggie straw chips, and individual pack of Pringles. By the way, our students are so excited for next week (Mexico's Independence Day celebration) as we saved the Pringles' containers to make a special project; Mexican sombreros/hats. These snacks have not only helped to keep them focused and engaged through the day, but it also shows them that their well-being is a priority.
Your kindness and generosity have truly made an impact, ensuring that our students can stay nourished and ready to learn. On behalf of my students, I want to express our deep gratitude for your contribution. Thank you for your continued support and for helping us provide for our students' needs in such a meaningful way.”
