  • Fund a Smartboard, Empower Students!

    Funded Mar 25, 2025

    Thank You - Your Support Brought Our Smart-board Project to Life!

    On behalf of my students and myself, I want to express our deepest gratitude for your incredibly generous contribution to our project, "Fund a Smart-board, Empower Students!" Thanks to your support, we were able to bring a state-of-the-art Smart-board into our classroom, and the impact has been truly remarkable!

    The moment we revealed the Smartboard, the students were absolutely thrilled! Seeing their faces light up as they took turns using the interactive pen on the board was such a joy. It has instantly transformed our lessons from something passive to an engaging and dynamic experience.

    It's hard to fully convey the joy and wonder on their faces as they interact with the board. They are eager to come to the front, solve problems collaboratively, and explore concepts in a way that simply wasn't possible before. The smart-board has become an invaluable tool in making learning more accessible, interactive, and fun.

    Thank you for believing in our students and for providing them with this invaluable tool. Your kindness has made a tangible difference in their education and has opened up a world of new possibilities for learning. We are so grateful for your support!”

    With gratitude,

    Mrs. Faour

  • Creativity in Learning: Empowering Students Through Task Cards

    Funded Sep 11, 2023

    I am writing to share the impact that my students had when I offered them the first set of created task cards. My students were more engaged in their learning, and they were able to retain information more effectively. I have also noticed that my students are more confident in their ability to learn new concepts. I have been using task cards for several months now, and I have found that they are a highly effective way to engage students and help them learn new concepts.

    Here are some specific examples of how my task cards have impacted my students' learning: One of my students, Ameer, was struggling to understand the concept of multiplication. I created a set of task cards on multiplication, and Ameer started working on them independently. After a few days, he came to me and said that he finally understood multiplication! Another one of my students, Jenna, is a visual learner. I created a set of task cards that used images to represent math problems. Jenna loved working on these task cards, and they made significant progress in her math skills. I also created math discourse (math verbal exchange) student's set to use during math lesson to encourage my students to use their math vocabulary more often.

    Task cards are versatile and can be used in a variety of ways. I often use them as a warm-up activity at the beginning of class, or as a review activity at the end of class. I also like to use them as a center activity, or as a way for students to differentiate their learning.

    I am confident that my task cards have had a positive impact on my students' learning. I am committed to continuing to create high-quality task cards that will help my students succeed.”

  • From Fiction to Reality: Book Publishing on Stage

    Funded Mar 19, 2023

    I am writing to express my sincere gratitude for your generosity in funding my project, "From Fiction to Reality: Book Publishing on Stage" Thanks to your support, our students were able to perform in our school play with confidence and ease.

    The wireless headsets made a huge difference in the quality of our performance. In the past, our students would often have to struggle with tangled cords and microphones that would pick up feedback from other equipment. With the wireless headsets, our students were able to move freely around the stage and focus on their performances without having to worry about technical difficulties. The wireless headsets also helped to create a more immersive experience for the audience. The sound quality was excellent, and the audience was able to clearly hear every word that our students said. This made the performance more enjoyable for everyone involved.

    Our students were so excited to use the wireless headsets. They felt more confident and professional, and they were able to deliver their performances to the best of their ability. I am so grateful for your support in making this possible.

    On behalf of my students and the entire school community, I want to say thank you for your generosity and support. Your donation made a real difference in the lives of our students, and we are truly grateful.”

    With gratitude,

    Mrs. Faour
