• The Write Stuff

  Funded Jan 18, 2024

  Thank you so much for providing my students the opportunity to finally use pen on their Math assignments, notes and assessments. I was completely sold by their enthusiasm for being able to use pen. The erasable pens provided them with a new excitement for Math. I never imagined the difference a writing utensil would make. I was very adamant to students only completing their Math work in pencil. I was an "old school" teacher. I evolved to the new school way of doing math in color. The students were completely engaged and overjoyed when they had the option to use pen. Thank you for allowing my students to experience Math with a little color.”

• Prepared and Ready

  Funded Sep 3, 2023

  I truly thank you from the bottom of my heart for allowing me to provide my students with the necessary materials needed from day to day in class. My students were very happy to receive the red folders, composition books and most importantly the erasable pens were a hit. They were super excited because they are not allowed to use pen to solve problems because they are not able to erase when they make an error. The erasable pens helped them with making their interactive notebooks and classwork colorful and easy for them to correct if a mistake was made.”

• Snack and Stick

  Funded Aug 24, 2023

  Thank you very much for the snacks and glue sticks. The students really really enjoyed the fruit snacks. I was able to provide each student in my class with two packages of the fruit snacks. They have been asking for more. They have informed me that they are able to think so much better when they have snacks.

  The glue sticks have been a great asset to my classroom. Our interactive math notebooks are staying together and they are able to go back and forth without the pages falling out.

  We are having a wonderful time creating an interactive notebook that can be used after my math class. My students understand that Math is like playing with legos. You build on what you currently have and if you miss something or a piece falls then you have to rebuild and move forward. Thank you for your generosity.”

• Manipulate the Day!

  Funded Aug 15, 2023

  Thank you very much for the generous gifts to my classroom. The students and I are truly grateful for your kindness. We have made major gains with the help from utilizing the manipulatives.

  My students were able to experience learning while having hands-on lessons with the cubes and tiles. The learning activities allowed the students to connect real life situations with the math skills they learned in class.

  Many of the students were able to finally grasp the concepts of the skills as they worked with the manipulatives which was amazing.

  Thank you from my students and I.”

• Time 2 Focus

  Funded Apr 6, 2023

  My students and I are super excited to use the headphones and math workbooks. They have been able to focus while working independently. Our work stations scores have improved. The students made tremendous gains on the FAST. The workbooks align perfectly with the curriculum. The activities were very fun and engaging. The students had an awesome time and requested the information on where they could purchase the books to work on at home and over the summer. Thank you for your generosity and kindness. We truly appreciate everything.”

• Feedback Freedom

  Funded Oct 23, 2022

  My students have been very fortunate to receive supplies to assist them with completing their assignments. Utilizing the dry erasers has been amazing. I am able to receive immediate feedback from students. Which is very helpful during class. Some of my students come from low income families and the only way they will have the supplies necessary to succeed in the classroom from day to day is by the generosity of the donors. We greatly appreciate your kindness. I want to personally thank you for providing me with the opportunity to be a recipient of your caring hearts.”

• Prepared to Succeed

  Funded Oct 19, 2022

  Thank you very much for providing my students classroom supplies to help them show their hard work while solving challenging math problems such as equations and inequalities. They are excited and grateful for your kind acts. Classroom supplies are typically in short supply at this time of the school year and my students have access to necessary classroom materials because of the generosity by the donors. We are exploring several different skills in math and to see their faces when they solve the problem correctly is very fulfilling. My class and I are very honored to be the recipients of your thoughtfulness.”
