  • "Soft" Start to Your Day

    Funded Jul 10, 2023

    Wow! I cannot truly express how thankful I am for the gift of your donations! I have a great groups of students! They love to learn, are active and come from a variety home lives. I have a few students that struggle with emotions, particularly anxiety.

    My students started to see boxes arrive and got to witness the unboxing of packages. With each item unboxed, they became more and more interested. I was asked daily, even multiple times a day, when they would get to use our "soft starts".

    My students and other first graders use these item's purchased through DonorsChoose. Our students are able to come to school, choose an enjoyable activity, and create with a friend or two. They are able to relax, talk with a friend, and not worry about extra expectations for even just a short time.

    I am truly grateful to the donations made toward this project!”

    With gratitude,

  • Leap for Kinders

    Funded Oct 16, 2017

    Thank you so much for your help and support in obtaining these Leap Pads for my students! Many students have access to technology before they enter the school system. Schools are having to stay up-to-date with our ever changing world! My students have the freedom to choose their activity, but also the Leap Pads allow my students to use technology wisely! These Leap Pads give me the peace of mind knowing my students are working on fun, skill building games! Each of my students love our "rotation" time of the day. The Leap Pads are one of the rotations, and by far the favorite!”

  • A Flexible Seating Upgrade

    Funded Aug 11, 2017

    Thank you so much for the various forms of Flexible Seating! My students love having the ability to choose their need for seating each day! The wobble seats, kneeling pads, stools and lap desks help the students determine their need for seating each day. If the students need to get some energy out, they can sit on a wobble seat. If the students would like to sit on the floor, they can use a lap desk. We truly enjoy having these various abilities! Thank you so much for your support and love for my students! Thank you for supporting our love of learning in various forms!”

    With gratitude,

    Mrs. Butler

  • Flexible Seating

    Funded Jul 17, 2016

    We absolutely LOVE our Flexible Seating! We have had a blast getting to experiment and learn the different types of seating. The students get to choose each day, with each activity where they would like to sit for that activity. The idea of Flexible Seating is for the students to get a choice in comfort for working. They have a sense of responsibility for their work space.

    I remember the first few days after we fully implemented our Flexible Seating. The students were in complete awe of the materials. They sat quietly and worked. They were so excited to have the ability to choose where they get to sit. They have to choose wisely, and have the ability to sit with friends. But in their choice, they have to make smart choices in their seating arrangement. They cannot sit by someone they know they will not act responsibly.

    I have added to these arrangement. Students also have the ability to find a "floor" spot to complete their assignment. I absolutely LOVE my Flexible Seating, and am very thankful for the ability to have implemented it in my classroom.”

    With gratitude,
