  • Reinforcing Reading

    Funded Dec 15, 2007

    I am ecstatic that you have chosen to make a valuable contribution to help the children in my classroom. Moreover, I look forward to using the materials you have donated regularly with my students. Just this past week, I asked each of my students to write me a letter telling how they would like to become a better reader. In their letters, so many of them wrote that they would like to improve their comprehension and/or fluency skills. I know the materials you have funded will support my efforts and help them achieve our common goals. I am so excited to share the news of your gift with my fourth grade students! I can hardly wait for the new supplies to arrive. Thanks so much!

    Sincerely,

  • Dictionaries and a Globe

    Funded Jul 2, 2007

    I am ecstatic that you have chosen to make a valuable contribution to help the children in my classroom. I look forward to using the materials you have donated regularly with my students. When school begins in September, the globe and dictionaries will be ready resources for young curiosities. I will be moving up with most of my former students into the fourth grade and am excited to share the news of these new gifts with them! I have found that many of these children have a natural love for geography and "big words." I have full confidence that your thoughtful contribution will fuel this love of learning! I can hardly wait for the new supplies to arrive. Thanks so much!

    Sincerely,

Are you able to help my fourth graders become better readers? I am a special education teacher at a high-need community school in Canarsie, Brooklyn. While we're equipped with plenty of eager minds, 29 in my class to be exact, my classroom is lacking in some essential supplies that would really improve daily reading instruction.
