  • "Empowering Scholars: Equipping Students with Resources and Rewards"

    Funded Sep 26, 2024

    I am incredibly grateful for your generosity and support in equipping my classroom with essential supplies and rewards that make a real difference in my students' learning experience. Your donations of pencils and colored pencils may seem like simple contributions, but they are invaluable tools that foster creativity and enable my students to fully engage in their work. Additionally, the chips and candy you provided as rewards for students who achieve proficiency on district tests are a wonderful way to motivate and celebrate their hard work and accomplishments.

    Your donation of a phone holder for storing a full class set of phones is particularly timely and meaningful. With the new state mandate policy in effect as of January 1, 2025 for all public schools, prohibiting phone use from bell to bell, this resource ensures a smooth and organized implementation in our classroom. It helps students focus entirely on their lessons while maintaining a respectful and distraction-free environment. Thank you for investing in their education and for helping me create a space where they can thrive. Your kindness and thoughtfulness are deeply

    appreciated.”

    With gratitude,

    Mrs. Newman

  • Biology Auditory Learning

    Funded Mar 15, 2023

    I wanted to take a moment to express my deepest gratitude for your generous donation through DonorsChoose. Your support has allowed my class to acquire much-needed headsets for auditory learning, and I cannot thank you enough for your kindness and generosity. This invaluable resource will greatly enhance the learning experience for each and every student, enabling them to engage with the material in a more immersive and focused manner.

    Your contribution has made a significant impact on our classroom, and I am truly touched by your willingness to invest in the education of our students. Your generosity will resonate long after this school year, as the benefits of this equipment will continue to shape their educational journey. Once again, thank you for your remarkable generosity and belief in the power of educatio”

  • Creative & Amazing Biology Interactive Notebooks!

    Funded Aug 9, 2022

    I just want you to know that I am very thankful and appreciative of your donations to my Interactive Notebooks project. Without your contributions, this project would not have been possible. In the past, I have never been able to get every student to bring a notebook and the supplies necessary to properly do an Interactive Notebook. This is the first year that I have been able to do that. I purchased all the notebooks myself before learning about Donors Choose, but all the supplies needed to do them were donated by you.

    The notebooks are kept in the class in crates. With your donations, I was able to purchase boxes and the supplies to keep in the boxes that the students need to do foldables, flap books, and other notebook assignments. My students really enjoy the activity around the notebooks. They get to sit at the lab tables and work with other students. It helps that the notebooks are not the typical pages and pages of words only.

    I have enjoyed the notebooks so much. In the future, I will create a project for a color printer so that I am able to print the pages that need to be printed in color. It will save time in the future. I will continue to create interactive notebooks next year. Thank you for assisting me in starting a project that I have been wanting to do. I thank you and my students thank you.”

  • The Interactive and Engaging Biology Class

    Funded Aug 16, 2022

    Thank you for your generous donations to my project. The materials used has been very meaningful in making sure that my students are able to learn in fun and interactive ways. In the past, very few students would bring or have access to the supplies needed on a daily basis. As a result of your donation, every student has access to supplies and materials needed for our interactive notebooks and other activities we do in class.

    My students were very thankful to see the supplies boxes that I put together for them to use when needed. They appreciate not having to bring those things in themselves. They know exactly what to do and where to go when the boxes are needed. I'm sure parents appreciate not having to supply the materials also.

    I will continue the remaining of this year and the next school year focusing on making sure my Biology classroom is engaging, relevant, and interactive. It is important that students are able to learn science with as much hands-on as possible. I just want to thank you again for your assistance in making this possible for me and my students.”

  • The Engaging Biology Classroom

    Funded Jun 27, 2022

    Thank you for your generous donations. Your donations has allowed me to deliver engaging lessons to my students. Being able to purchase fun and engaging Biology lessons from teacherspayteachers.com has helped to improve my students scores on district assessments compared to last year. My students are excited about their learning. Before receiving your donations, I was unable to purchase all the content that I needed. I am so thankful and grateful for your generosity. My students thank you too.”
