    Funded Mar 9, 2025

    I can’t thank you enough for your generosity and support! Your donation means the world to my students and me. Phonics is such a crucial foundation for learning, and having the right materials makes all the difference. Thanks to you, my students will have the tools they need to grow, build confidence, and—most importantly—have fun while learning.

    It’s incredible to know that there are people like you who understand the importance of literacy and are willing to invest in our future. Your kindness and support will have a lasting impact on my students’ learning journey, and I am so grateful.”

  • From Egg to Chick: Support Our Classroom Hatchlings

    Funded Feb 5, 2025

    Thank you so much for your generosity and support of our classroom! Because of your kindness, my students will have the incredible opportunity to witness the magic of life as we hatch baby chicks for our science project. This hands-on experience will spark curiosity, deepen their understanding of life cycles, and create lasting memories.

    We are truly grateful for your belief in our learning journey. Your donation has made a meaningful impact, and we can’t wait to share our excitement with you as our chicks begin to hatch!”

  • Celebrating Black History: Inspiring Young Minds Through Culture and Stories

    Funded Jan 16, 2025

    Thank you for your generous support in bringing new books to our classroom! As we celebrate Black History Month, these texts are helping us explore powerful stories, voices, and lessons that might not always be included in traditional curriculum.

    With these books, my students are not only learning about key historical figures and events, but also developing important literacy skills like analyzing central themes, making connections to their own lives, and understanding different perspectives. These stories have sparked meaningful conversations about resilience, leadership, and the impact of everyday heroes.

    Reading in our classroom is an interactive experience. Sometimes, it's a shared read-aloud where we pause to discuss important moments. Other times, students work in pairs or small groups to reflect on a passage and share their thoughts. Most importantly, it's a space where they feel encouraged to ask questions, make discoveries, and see themselves in the stories we read.

    Many students have been especially engaged with these books. One student was so inspired by a biography that they started researching more about that person on their own. Another shared that they saw similarities between their own family's experiences and a story we read together. These books are making a difference, and it's all thanks to you!

    Your support has made it possible for my students to experience literature that empowers and educates them. We are so grateful!”

  • Playtime Possibilities: Engaging Indoor Recess Games For Every Student!

    Funded Nov 27, 2024

    I wanted to take a moment to sincerely thank you for your generosity in supporting our classroom. Your donation has allowed me to provide some wonderful resources that are already making a positive impact on our students, both in the classroom and during recess. Here's how the materials are being used:

    Dirt Devil SimpliStik Stick Bagless Vacuum – This vacuum has been a lifesaver for keeping our classroom clean, especially after messy recesses! It's light, easy to use, and perfect for quickly tidying up, so my students can enjoy a clean, organized space where they can focus and play.

    Costa Farms Live Plants – These plants are not only brightening up our classroom but also improving the air quality! They've become part of our classroom décor and provide a calm, soothing environment, helping students feel more relaxed during their work time.

    Fluorescent Light Covers – The pink cloud light covers have made such a difference in reducing glare and harsh lighting, creating a more comfortable atmosphere for my students. They no longer complain about eye strain, which makes a huge difference in their ability to concentrate and learn effectively.

    TAPPLE Word Game – During recess or indoor break times, this fun and fast-paced word game has become a favorite! It encourages quick thinking and enhances vocabulary, all while helping students build teamwork and communication skills in a relaxed setting.

    Guess Who? Board Game – This game has been a hit during downtime, whether in the classroom or during recess. It sparks conversation and allows students to practice critical thinking while having fun and getting to know each other better.

    Thanks to you, my students now have a much more enjoyable and engaging space to relax and unwind, as well as tools that support their learning and development. Your donation is helping create a more comfortable, active, and fun environment, both during lessons and at play.

    From the bottom of my heart, thank you for making these moments possible for my students. Your kindness is truly making a difference in their lives, and we are incredibly grateful!”

    With gratitude,

    Ms. Muhammad

  • Spreading Holiday Cheer: Help Bring Joy to Students This Christmas!

    Funded Nov 27, 2024

    I want to extend my deepest gratitude for your generous support in bringing new resources to our classroom. Thanks to you, my students are already enjoying a variety of exciting items that make learning more engaging and fun. Here's how we're using the resources:

    Heroes of Goo Jit Zu Marvel Mega Mini 6 Pack – These squishy, stretchy superhero figures have quickly become a favorite! The students love using them during brain breaks and stress-relief activities. They also inspire creative storytelling and teamwork discussions.

    Fainne Jumbo Pencils and Sharpeners – The oversized pencils are perfect for my younger students still developing their writing skills. They're easier to grip, helping improve fine motor skills, and the sharpeners ensure students always have the right tools for success.

    Mini Magnetic Drawing Boards – These portable drawing boards are a hit! Students use them for quiet time, creative expression, and even math practice. They're also a fun incentive in our classroom treasure box for students who earn rewards.

    Christmas Tote Bags – With the holiday season coming up, these bags will be perfect for wrapping up holiday gifts for my students. They'll also be used for small giveaways and to create a festive atmosphere during class events.

    Sensory Fidget Toys Set – This collection of fidget toys is helping my students manage stress and focus better during lessons. The variety of toys, including squishies and stress balls, provides calming activities for students who need sensory support.

    Your contribution has already made a positive impact, creating a welcoming, comforting, and supportive environment where students feel happy and engaged. I can already see how much these new resources are helping my students focus, be creative, and thrive in their learning.

    Thank you for making this possible and for brightening their educational experience. Your kindness truly makes a difference!”

  • An Ear-resistible Approach to Building Reading Skills

    Funded Nov 30, 2023

    Thank you so much for going out of your way to support my third-grade classroom at Wakonda Elementary. My students were extremely excited to receive their new Bluetooth headphones. For the last couple of months all of my students haven't had headphones, we have been sharing. Now that we all have our headphones our classroom has run much smoother.

    During reading rotations, each student can be on their reading app at the same time. The class isn't noisy because students are all focused with their headphones on and locked in. My students and I are greatly appreciative and we thank you for choosing our classroom to make a difference in.”

    With gratitude,

    Ms. Muhammad

My students are all about learning and staying engaged. They’re totally into math, and they love showing their work on the whiteboard—it’s like their way of really diving into the problem and sharing ideas. A lot of them struggle with reading, but they’re super open to improving and are always down to grow. The vibe in our class is everything; we’ve built a solid, supportive community where everyone gets along and respects each other. We keep things fun by mixing in games and activities with our lessons, so learning never feels boring. There’s a lot of positive energy in the room, and it’s all about making everyone feel comfortable enough to take risks and enjoy the ride. It’s the kind of place where we all help each other out and just have a good time while learning.
