Let's Talk and Play
Funded Nov 30, 2021I am filled with gratitude today, because you all so kindly supported my latest classroom project so quickly and readily! Your generous giving today will bring happiness and learning opportunities to the kiddos I have now and those in the future. Your support means I will have a variety of tools to engage my kids in learning experiences that will increase their communication skills and foster social interactions. I appreciate each and everyone of you for the love you have shown my kids today. I am truly blessed.”

This classroom project was brought to life by The DonorsChoose Community and 9 other donors.Together for Direct Instruction
Funded Jun 1, 2021I was so delighted to receive and construct my new rainbow shaped table! It has been a wonderful addition to our classroom space. Gathering students around this table allows me to teach and reach my students easily. Many of my students need hand-over-hand assistance for cutting, gluing, and writing, and I can easily help all of my students from the center space. I really appreciate everyone who donated to this much needed piece of furniture. It has enabled me to teach more effectively by being able to offer assistance more readily. Thank you all from the bottom of my heart!”

Hands on Learning!
Funded Jun 18, 2021Thank you all for making these materials available to my students. The items that you all have helped fund will give my students the opportunity to practice and learn basic math and literacy skills in a hands on way. My kiddos will be excited to use these new materials. Your generosity will bring joy and increase learning for a group of truly deserving children!”

Sensory Reinforcers
Funded Nov 5, 2020I would like to thank you all again for contributing to my classroom project to provide flexible seating, reinforcers (leap pads and kindles), bluetooth headphones, and sensory items (weighted and pressure vests, body socks). I was overwhelmed with gratitude at how quickly everyone responded to my request to help my students.
My students did return to the classroom on November 9th as scheduled and were overjoyed to see their teachers, friends, and classroom. Then, they got to see all of the new materials I received with the funds from the project and were even more excited to be back at school! Having items for each student was so helpful due to the restrictions on sharing materials due to covid safety measures.
The item that was most helpful keeping students in their assigned, safely distanced areas were the wobble stools. The students responded positively to the wobble seats as they provided the movement they need while sitting with great sensory feedback! Unfortunately, our classroom and district was closed by the end of our week and we returned to remote learning due to a spike of covid in our county.
We are scheduled to return to the classroom again in a hybrid fashion after the spring break. I cannot wait to see my students in person again, and they will be so grateful and excited to be back in their classroom using all of the new wonderful items made possible by you all. Thank you again for your kindness and blessings!”
