  • Lunar New Year Animal Creations!

    Funded Jan 15, 2025

    Thank you so much for your generous donation. With your support, we were able to get filament needed to use our 3D printer. The students and I recently created the animals of the Lunar calendar just in time for the celebration, and it was a wonderful experience.

    Technology is truly helping our students learn by making lessons more interactive and engaging. The filament colors and the newly acquired 3D printer has excited my students, who are eager to explore its possibilities. Many of them are particularly drawn to the hands-on aspect of creating and printing their designs.

    Some students have especially warmed to this new technology, showing remarkable enthusiasm in their projects. It's inspiring to see how they collaborate and share ideas while using the printer.

    Thank you once again for your incredible support. I look forward to using the printer for many more fun projects with the class.”

  • We Got Game!

    Funded Dec 26, 2024

    I hope this message finds you well. I want to express my heartfelt gratitude for your generous donation, which has made a significant impact on our basketball team. They now have uniform shorts that complete their look, along with basketball sneakers, which has truly elevated their performance. It's wonderful to see them come together as a team. Although I am their STEM teacher and not the coach, I have noticed it has made a positive impact.

    Looking ahead, I am excited about the next steps for our students as they prepare for the championship. I hope to continue this project for the soccer team, which will start soon. Your contributions have allowed me to show the students that I care about their endeavors, and I can't wait to see them compete!”

  • Let's Go Team

    Funded Oct 13, 2024

    I wanted to take a moment to express my gratitude for your support and to share how we are utilizing the new resources in our classroom.

    The students were absolutely thrilled when they first saw the custom basketball shirts. Their excitement was palpable, and they now wear them proudly to every practice. This sense of belonging has not only elevated their spirits but also their performance on the court. It's heartwarming to see them embracing their identity as part of the basketball team, and I'm considering doing something similar for the soccer team when the season starts.

    Thank you so much for your donation!”

  • Animating a Kinder World

    Funded Nov 14, 2024

    I would love to share how the technology we have is positively impacting our students' learning. The Andymation kit has sparked a lot of excitement as students easily create flip books, while the Klikbot kit has opened doors for them to produce stop-motion animation shorts. Additionally, the camera has been instrumental in allowing them to record their projects, enhancing their engagement.

    It's been heartwarming to see particular students truly embrace these new tools. They are not only excited to create animations but are also finding new ways to express their creativity. I can't wait to explore how I can further integrate these resources into my curriculum!

    Thank you again for your support.”

  • Lights, Camera, Action, Kindness!

    Funded Oct 17, 2024

    I want to extend my heartfelt thanks for your generous donation. With your support, we were able to film several exciting projects, allowing students to express why it's important to be an up stander. The camera was also instrumental in capturing our Thanksgiving Sphero Day Parade, which we are thrilled to be able to share with parents.

    With this technology, I am looking to find more ways to incorporate it into our units of study and give access to students to present their work in other ways.

    Thank you once again for your support.”

We've been lucky to acquire Sphero Bolts but now we need the tablets. I currently have a group of students who are working on coding with their Sphero Bolts. The technology we have at school is no longer compatible. Students are working in large groups using technology I have from home. With your help, more students will get the chance to work one-on-one with their Sphero Bolt. Coding, creating animations on the pixel screen, attaching sounds, creating their own commands, submerging their robots under water and creating robot artwork. All this will be possible with your donation going to tablets that are greatly needed. From my fourth grade students and me, thank you!
