  • New Bookshelves for Classroom Library

    Funded Aug 15, 2023

    I want to thank you from the bottom of my heart for donating to my classroom project called "New Bookshelves for Classroom Library". I moved into a new classroom this year, and although this classroom is nearly identical to my last classroom, where I loved the set-up and flow I created, it lacked the built-in shelving that I came to rely on daily. I thought I would try a Donor's Choose project to see if anyone would like to help me meet my goal of having beautiful new shelves for my new classroom.

    The students and I are really enjoying the ease of having these new shelves. Some of the shelves are housing our reading curriculum specific books, like anthologies, leveled readers, and decodable readers. The other shelf is being used for "free-choice" books, which I am leveling for the students. The students love having the choice to approach the shelves when I say "Go choose a book just right for you."”

    With gratitude,

    Ms. Smith

  • A New Classroom Carpet!

    Funded Sep 7, 2022

    We have been using our new carpet every day! You should have seen the kid's faces when they walked in and saw it. Needless to say, it was an uproar of delight!

    The new carpet has so much more space for our morning meetings and our whole group lessons. The individual boxes really delineate where each student's body should be, which is a big help to the young learners in my class.

    One of our favorite morning meeting activities is called Purple Soup. It is a chant with body movements the children love. They all start standing around the rug, and eventually all end up in the middle. With a small rug, this was very difficult to do. We can do this much more smoothly and safely now.

    Again, thank you so much for all of your generous donations. I am so appreciative!”

    With gratitude,

    Ms. Smith
