  • Supplies for Second

    Funded Dec 20, 2023

    As another school year comes to an end, we thank you so much for all of the classroom supplies! All year long they have been put to good use from our daily classwork, to classroom door contests, and even crazy hat day! Each item has been crucial for our day to day learning and everything in-between. We are so thankful as we know our classroom would not be the same without the generosity and support of each and every donor. We look forward to continue using all of our materials as we wrap up the school year and prepare for 3rd grade!”

    Ms. Brittany

  • Series Books for Second Graders

    Funded Jul 16, 2023

    Thank you so much for helping expand our classroom library. With this project I was able to get many exciting and new titles into my student's hands. They now love the wide variety of texts to choose from and diversity is seen in the characters. This project has also been especially helpful as we have a large class and now we have enough series for everyone to borrow at once. Previously we had to limit the amount of series student's borrowed as our selection was so limited. Thanks again for livening up our library!”

  • Help! It's a Laptop Emergency!

    Funded May 3, 2022

    Thank you so much for the funding of our classroom laptop. In class this is something that is used each and every day. Not only do I use it in school to plan, but it is also used to display lessons using our projector. We play math games, watch movement videos and even conduct morning meeting using it. During the short period we went without our beloved laptop, lessons were definitely a bit lack luster and we had to go back to our good old paper charts. It is safe to say my students were thrilled to have the tech back!”

  • Back to School Basics

    Funded Aug 10, 2022

    Another year, another successful start to Kindergarten and thanks to your help and continued support! Thank you so much for all of our much needed school supplies. As always they were put to use on day one of school and continue to be used and replenished as the year rolls on. With your support we are always able to ensure that our students have everything to learn not only at school, but can provide them with materials to use at home as well. Often we take little things for granted, assuming that everyone has pencils and paper at their disposal, but I will tell you that is not always the case. I am so happy that I can always provide for my students and try to set them up for success as much as I can.”

  • Adapting to New iPads

    Funded Aug 9, 2022

    Thank you so much for funding this project! With the ever evolving technology, our new iPads could not be used with headphones unless we had adapters and iPads+listening activities/games = one loud classroom! So we thank you for helping provide a little thing that helped make a big impact on our classroom. Now we can use our new iPads for everything we had intended. I am so gracious for all of your support for every project, no matter how big or small. Each and every one makes an impact and counts!”

  • Congrats Grads!

    Funded May 3, 2022

    Another successful school year had passed this June, and off our kids went to First grade! Thank you so much for giving us some special treats to send our students off with at the end of the school year. Each and every one of them were so excited to have their own books and supplies (sometimes it's the little things). They worked so hard and grew so much as learners, they truly deserved it! We also loved being able to provide them with materials that they could use to keep learning throughout the summer and would also be helpful in their first grade endeavors.”

  • New Grade, New Curriculum

    Funded Sep 23, 2021

    Thank you so much for helping provide us with extra sets of our Kindergarten curricula. These materials have proven to be so helpful while planning, especially for myself as I was new to the grade last school year. It gave me the chance to have access at all times to help better prepare myself for the new material I was teaching and was helpful to the entire grade so we all had access to collaboratively plan. Additionally, we were provided with more resources that they come with such as mentor texts and online resources that are crucial for teaching.”

  • Easy Access

    Funded Sep 30, 2021

    Thank you so much for donating to my project for chair pockets. Although they may seem silly, these are essential to the organization and flow of our classroom. Chair pockets are used every single day and are life savers in a kindergarten teachers eyes! These chair pockets help keep a few essentials close by our students and help limit movement and major transitions throughout the day. Whenever something is needed they can just turn around and have their materials in a snap. You would be surprised how much time this could save us throughout one school day!”

  • iPads for All

    Funded Feb 3, 2022

    Thank you so much for donating to our project for more classroom iPads. We have been using our iPads throughout the year in many different ways. In the beginning of the year they were used to help "train" students how to access applications and home but now they are used for so much more. We use them throughout the day among many different subject areas especially reading and math. My students love having the opportunity to learn through educational games in our centers. Additionally, they have been used to research our wonderings and even help students produce writing through speech to text.”

  • Kindergarten, Here We Come!

    Funded Aug 12, 2021

    I cannot believe we have been in school for almost 100 days so far (97 at this point to be exact)! This year has been a difficult one, but having all of our necessary supplies has made it that much better.

    When my new students first came into our Kindergarten classroom, they were SO excited to see all of their new "big kid" supplies and were to be given some to call their very own. I can honestly say that we have used these supplies every single day. My students have used these to learn how to do math, write, to add color and bring their art projects to life, and to grow as learners. Color coded supplies make it very easy for them to learn which supplies are needed when, as they learn to become more independent.

    I thank you again for all of your generous donations, and always helping me making each school year the best it can be!”

I am a Kindergarten teacher in an integrated co-teaching setting with a class that includes students with and without special needs. Our school is located on the Lower East Side of Manhattan. It is an ethnically and economically diverse neighborhood and have a large population of English language learners who are new to the country. Despite these challenges, my students are enthusiastic, inquisitive, and determined to learn each year. This is my ninth year teaching at PS 126 and having grown up across the street, I enjoy being able to give back to and make a difference in my community.
