Thank you so much for your gift to my classroom! Your gift has given my students more tools to access the content that I am teaching in different and fun ways. The students are enjoying playing the board games. They are learning without even knowing it.
Your give has not only supported my classroom but the other second grade classroom at my school. The students have a benefited from the extra centers. We know that this system works because we are seeing a positive raise in students's academic scores and over all understanding of concepts.”

Thank you so much for your gift to my students. I have been able to increase engagement during my small group times. The students have been able to play games on the computers that are increasing their math fluency and their sight word knowledge.
You have also helped give my that small group time, without the other students being constantly distracted. I am able to bring 4-5 students to my yellow table and work on the concepts I know they are missing or struggling with.
Your gift will not only be helping my classroom this year, but the next few years as well.”

Thank you for your support in my classroom. The students have loved using the headphones. They have been able to stay responsible and keep the headphones in their cubbies. They also love all the fun colors that the headphones come in.
Your gift has crosses the equitable divide that I have in my classroom. Parents did not have to worry about purchasing headphones for their child with the price of school supplies increasing this year. Your gift has also helped children who did bring headphones and did not take care of their own correctly.
Thank you much for your gift. The students are loving centers even more now. The games are fun and engaging for students. In a day and age that many kids do not play board games at home, it has been fun introducing these new games to my students.
The board games are also great for sneaking in some learning without the students actually knowing it. The games are teaching them math and reading skills. I also love that the students are learning to work together to play the games. The students are off technology and socializing together.”

Your gift has been put to work. The students now are able to use the storage cabinet to quickly find and use computers. I greatly appreciate the organization of all the devices and cords. I also love that I am able to lock my cabinet and know that the devices are safe over night.
The students use computers everyday during our centers. The students are able to play the learning games that are directly correlated to the lessons I have taught earlier in the day. The learning games helps the students to cement the lessons in the memories.”

Thank you so much for your gift! Your gift have given my students not only a place to learn but to play as well. My students are able to use the horseshoe table to play matching games that encourage them to read as well as learn their high-frequency words. The children have been able to read in their small groups. I am also able to pull students who did poorly on a standard and help them so competence in the standard.
The students are also able to use the space when we do arts and crafts. The picture included is from our Christmas party. The students used the table to decorate cookies during the party.”
Your gift has improved my students writing skills. They are able to use my descriptive language when writing. They are able to organize their thoughts about a topic and use those thoughts to create a well written paragraph.
We all know that writing is not exciting for the students. This product has made the students excited. I have some students who get excited and will work ahead because they are excited to write about the topic.
The students also enjoy the publishing part of this curriculum. They enjoy sharing in class and sharing with their family.”

Your gift is greatly appreciated! Pencils and storage are always needed by teachers. Specifically, good pencils!
The pencils that were purchased have great quality and are not constantly breaking. Students will go through many pencils a day. I do not have time to constantly be sharpening pencils. You have given me more time to teach and not sharpen pencils.
The storage that was purchased benefits the cheerleading team that I coach. The cheerleaders are able to store their poms and their mats. About half of the girls in my class participate in cheerleading. They are excited to pull out the storage and get the mats and poms out.”
Unfortunately, the kidney table was unable to ship. I did use your gift for some great additions to my classroom!
I was able to add many books to my classroom library. I added A classroom stem pack to my library. I also added 3 packs of classroom builder sets from Scholastic books. These books are so beneficial to the students. I use them as a early finisher incentive. The students are very excited to check out the books that interest them!
Lastly, I was able to purchase laminating pouches. These are a must have for all teachers! I am grateful for them.”
These computers will enrich our classroom by giving us a bigger computer center. We will be able to focus on our small groups while students are getting leveled learning from games and puzzles.
We will be able to use small groups to encourage reading, phonics and math. We will be able to differentiate instruction because we will be able to concentrate on a students specific area of need. The computer programs are designed to pin point the need of the student. This is so beneficial to our whole group teaching by having the student practice the skill before I teach it.
