    Funded Mar 18, 2019

    I am beyond grateful for your kindness and generosity. I can not wait to make beautiful memory books that I hope the kids will keep forever.

    I will always think of you and your wonderful family when using all of these great resources. Thank you for all you have done to help make our classroom a fun one.”

  • Extra! Extra! READ All About It!

    Funded Dec 7, 2018

    Words can not express the impact these new books have made on our classroom. The students were excited to go pick new books the minute the box arrived. Thanks to you and your generosity, my students are moving up reading levels every week. They enjoy reading the books on independently as well as when I use them for read alouds.

    The children are also enjoying the games that were donated. They love using the sentence builder to make up new sentences and match them to the pictures. This is helping them become more aware of how to form a proper sentence when speaking and writing. The fluency game has also helped tremendously in our classroom. The children read and reread these often while timing themselves to see how much more fluent they are becoming in their reading. This will in turn help them to improve their comprehension. Thank you so much for making a difference in so many little lives.”

  • Learning is Easier with an Easel!

    Funded Sep 29, 2018

    Words cannot express the difference these materials have made in our classroom. The students love working in the dry erase boards wether it's for sight word practice or playing math games. They are having fun while learning and don't even realize how much they are learning.

    We use the easel every day for almost every subject. Our smart board is not always working so we use the easel for so much more than I could have ever imagined. The children are able to see things written out as a model, which is something we couldn't always do. We had nowhere to hang our charts and nowhere to do shared writing to help them progress in writing. Your donations have made a world of difference in our classroom. I will be forever grateful for you and your kindness. The students will continue to have fun learning thanks to all of you.”

    Mrs. Baranoski

  • Small Groups... Big Difference!

    Funded Aug 1, 2018

    Your kindness is so appreciated. Our fabulous table is used many times a day in small groups. It has helped me make such an impact on the class every time I pull a small group. I am able to reteach material to children who may need it repeated, or even just catch up a few who may have missed the lesson due to absence. The students left for lunch one day with an empty space in the room, and upon returning their eyes lit up with excitement as if it was their birthday.

    The children ask on a daily basis "Will I get to work at our special table today?" It is such a great addition to our room. Not to mention the shiny material we are using during our groups that have been laminated for continued use. So much can be done with the materials we were fortunate enough to receive from all the fabulous donors.

    I look forward to using these material every day and for years to come. Thank you for making a difference in our classroom and in the lives of so many students.”
