  • Sack It Up: Organizing Our Classroom With Style

    Funded Sep 18, 2024

    Seat sacks are a wonderful tool to help students stay organized and make their daily routines smoother. By keeping their essential materials like notebooks, folders, and supplies within arm's reach, seat sacks reduce the need for frequent trips to their desks, saving valuable learning time. They also promote independence by giving students a personal space to manage their belongings, helping them develop responsibility and organizational skills. With supplies tucked away in the seat sack, desks stay less cluttered, allowing students to focus more on their tasks and less on distractions, creating a more productive and stress-free learning environment.

    Thank you so much for funding our project! Your generosity has made it possible for us to provide valuable resources that will make a meaningful difference in our students' learning experience, especially for students with disabilities. These tools will help create a more inclusive, organized, and accessible classroom environment where every student has the opportunity to thrive. Your support ensures that all learners, regardless of their abilities, have what they need to succeed. We are truly grateful for your investment in their success and for believing in the power of education to change lives.”

  • Get Your Growth On!

    Funded Apr 2, 2024

    Thank you for the generous donation! The iPad Pro has been an incredible addition to my classroom and had greatly enhanced the learning experience for my second graders.

    I use the iPad pro to create engaging lessons and visuals, which has made teaching more interactive and fun. The new resource has allowed me to incorporate vibrant, dynamic slideshow presentations and real time demonstrations that has captured my students attention. The iPad also has allowed me to showcase my small group sessions better with personalizing my lessons to my students individual needs. One example making visuals to help reinforce concepts with hands on activities and interactive learning tools.

    In addition to directly supporting my students, the iPad pro has also become a valuable tool for my professional development using it to develop interactive lessons to improve my craft.

    Thanks to your support my students are more engaged in the learning process.”

  • "Soundscape Serenade"

    Funded Aug 15, 2023

    I hope this message finds you well. I wanted to take a moment to express my deepest gratitude for your generous contribution to our class project aimed at helping my students with noise-related challenges.

    Thanks to your support, we were able to provide Apple AirPod Max headphones for our classroom sound station, and so far, the impact has been truly remarkable. These headphones have not only enhanced their learning experience but have also brought a sense of comfort and focus to their daily lives.

    The noise-canceling technology in the AirPod Max headphones has allowed our students to create a quiet and distraction-free learning environment, which has significantly improved their concentration. Your kindness has directly contributed to their success, and we are incredibly grateful for your belief in our mission.

    Your support inspires us to strive for excellence in our educational initiatives, and we look forward to sharing more success stories with you in the future.

    Once again, thank you for your invaluable support. Your kindness and generosity have touched the hearts of our students and the entire community.”

  • Calming 1st Sped Jitters

    Funded Sep 29, 2022

    Because of your donation we have access to technology that has helped students perform research, edit and publish their writing, and practice math skills. Having access to technology has become a big deal and a part of our everyday routine as we have incorporated it into classroom instruction. These materials have helped my students gain a better understanding of curriculum lessons being taught by allowing them to have a visual representation and differentiation for those who struggle in different areas. Students have also been able to use applications to push their learning and understanding further.

    Having access to technology like an iPad Pro has helped create personalized learning experiences for my students. My students are unique and have different learning styles that require several different methods of teaching and having the iPad Pro has helped them become more engaged in what they're learning in class. Because of you math, reading, and writing centers have been more successful and keeps my students focused”

  • Uniquely Thriving Through Tech

    Funded Sep 29, 2022

    Thank you so much for the generous gifts for our classroom! My students were very excited to receive the news that we were fully funded. The iPad Pro and MacBook Air has increased the engagement of learning in the classroom.

    Because of your donation we have access to technology that has helped students perform research, edit and publish their writing, and practice math skills. Having access to technology has become a big deal and a part of our everyday routine as we have incorporated it into classroom instruction. These materials have helped my students gain a better understanding of curriculum lessons being taught by allowing them to have a visual representation and differentiation for those who struggle in different areas. Students have also been able to use applications to push their learning and understanding further.

    As for my struggling readers the MacBook Air and iPad Pro have really changed the way my students feel when they're learning. For students in my classroom acquiring English as a new language they finally have relief knowing that they have an extra tool to help them when it can be a bit difficult to process what they are learning in class. Those students have been able to practice reading in English by listening to audiobooks that also come in their native language with translation. They can also practice their letter sounds with multiple phonics programs online which has been beneficial during classroom center time. I have never seen them more engage. This is a blessing in itself.

    This has also helped students enjoy using the technology when they just need a break outside of the classroom. During lunch and during center time when they need an extra break throughout the day. I've uploaded some social emotional games for my students who has an individual educational plan. Having access to technology like an iPad Pro and MacBook gives them an additional outlet to express their thoughts in a more non-traditional way. This has been magical, and I only hope that I can bring more access to technology into my classroom!

    We thank you so much!”
