• Holiday Library

  Funded Dec 6, 2024

  Thank you so much for your generous donation. Myself along with my students enjoyed these books. They were a great addition to our current classroom library. So far the students enjoyed a few of the books especially the night before the hundred day of school. They enjoy reading books about different holidays that we learn about. These books are all bright and colorful and are amazing for the ENL and visual learners in my classroom. During independent reading time the students enjoy reading these books with their classmates.”

• Snack City

  Funded Dec 18, 2024

  Thank you so much for your generous donation. My students appreciate your generosity. At the end of the day all of my students are able to have a refreshing snack to make sure they stay energized to complete their work. My students enjoy the snack variety and enjoy being able to pick their own snacks. They look forward to snack during each day. The snacks give them a little extra boost at the end of the day, just enough energy for them to continue their work and give their brain some extra power.”

• Differentiate Learning in our class!

  Funded Apr 25, 2024

  Thank you so much for your generous donation. My class this year was filled with students from many cultural backgrounds. Many of my students spoke different languages such as creole, arabic, and Spanish. With your kind donation I was able to purchase books in different languages so these students were able to read and connect the words in their home language to the English language.

  These books were written in both English and their language. When I took these books out of the box my students felt like they were able to read in groups with other students.”

• Fun in the Sun

  Funded May 24, 2024

  Thank you so much for your kind donation to myself and my students. The kids really enjoyed the chalk, beachballs, sunglasses, water bottles, and everything that you have donated for them. This project was a great end of the year surprise for my students.

  We were able to go to the park and enjoy all of these donations that you have purchased. They played together and it was just a fun project to have donated. Their favorite part of this project was the chalk because they were able to be as creative as they wanted, not using paper and pencil.

  Thank you again for your donation!”

• Tie-Dye Is The New Black

  Funded May 9, 2024

  Thank you so much for giving my students this fun activity to enjoy toward the end of the school year. This project gave my students the opportunity to learn in a different way rather than using paper and pencil. When I showed my students the tie dye kits their faces lite up with smiles. They were so excited to create their own t-shirts. We were able to all sit as a group and make out own unique tie-dye t-shirts an afternoon in school.

  Each shirt came out different and the students enjoyed wearing their custom shirt on the last day of school.”

• Classroom Cooking!

  Funded Apr 5, 2024

  Thank you so much for donating to our classroom. The students enjoyed exploring learning with cooking in the classroom. With your donation we were able to make waffles and donuts in our class.

  The students were able to use measurement and follow a recipe.

  They really enjoyed following the directions and creating their own donut sandwiches. This was a great end of the year activity and really allowed the students to learn in a different way, other than using paper and pencil. Myself along with my students appreciate your kindness. Thank you again, I will be using these materials with my upcoming first grade students.”

• Think Ink

  Funded Nov 10, 2023

  Thank you so much for your generous donation to our classroom. With your donation our printer is not able to be used in the classroom. We have been able to print and enlarge anchor charts and positive posters for the classroom. We have been able to print some classroom management games and charts for the classroom. Students have been able to complete writing booklets and worksheets that we can now print from the classroom printer. If a worksheet needs to be differentiated we can print it on the spot for the students. Thank you so much again!”
