  • Headphones Needed: Essential for Learning and Concentration!

    Funded Jul 14, 2024

    Thank you so much for your generous donation to our classroom project! Your support has provided my students with headphones, which will make a big difference in their learning.

    These headphones will help my students focus, participate in virtual lessons, and use educational tools without distractions. They will also make it easier for them to learn at their own pace, both at school and at home.

    Your generosity has not only met a practical need but also shown my students that there are people who care deeply about their education and success. Thank you for helping to create a classroom where every student feels supported and excited to learn.”

    With gratitude,

    Ms. Francisco

  • Keeping It Personal!

    Funded Aug 18, 2020

    Thank you so much for donating to my "keeping it personal project!" It's imperative that we practice safety measures to keep us safe from Covid-19 and one of those safety measures is making sure students do not share supplies. With the help of your donations, I was able to provide every student in my class with their own pencils, erasers, sharpeners, highlighters, and pencil cases. The students were beyond thrilled to see these supplies on their desks on the first day of school! This year has proven to be a challenging one but with your help, we've checked a few things off the list!”

  • Covid 19 Essentials!

    Funded Aug 11, 2020

    Thank you so much for donating to my "Covid 19 Essentials" Project! In-person learning has presented its challenges during the pandemic we are currently facing and making sure the students stay as safe as possible in school has been one of the biggest challenges. With the help of your donations, we were able to stock up on necessary cleaning products such as paper towels, disinfecting spray, hand sanitizer, and hand soap. The students, the parents, and I feel a sense of relief knowing we have these safety measures in place. Thank you for helping stay safe!”

  • Covid-19 and Budget Cuts Will Not Stop Our Learning!

    Funded Aug 10, 2020

    My students are absolutely loving their new flexible seating options and brand new graphic novel books. When students are rushing to go get a book from the library you know you've done something right! They are obsessed with the graphic novel series and they cant put them down!

    We currently have the wobble chairs in a rotation so that each student is able to use that as their permanent seat for a week if they choose to. This is working out fantastically. Providing the students with different options where they can comfortably do their work was the goal and we succeeded. They have never been in a classroom before that offered different seating arrangements so they were beyond thrilled to see that be apart of this classroom. We could not be happier and we thank you again from the bottom of our hearts!”

    With gratitude,

    Ms. Francisco

    This classroom project was brought to life by A Generous Donor and 8 other donors.
My classroom is a home away from home for my students. They spend six and a half hours of their day in the school building. They spend their time researching, working and creating as they learn. With the new regulations due to the Covid-19 virus, students will be spending their entire day in one classroom. I want to provide them with as much flexibility as I can. Many of my students have trouble sitting still in their seats. Providing these students with various seating options not only would improve their focus while completing their tasks, but it would also improve their overall comfort. The wobble chairs and wobble cushions would be a wonderful and necessary addition to my classroom as they would be an alternative seating options used by the students daily. Another impact of Cvoid-19 were budget cuts. Every year teachers were provided with $250 dollars for supplies and necessities for their classroom. However, due to the major budget cuts this money will no longer be provided. Throughout the years I have noticed students have shown great interest in graphic novels. They run to our classroom library to grab the newest books added. They also always tend to gravitate to those books during our yearly book fairs. If we get these books added to our library, I can only imagine the joy on their faces. They will be engaged and eager to read everyday. Supporting this project will have an everlasting impact on my students and their teacher.
