  • Water Bottle Storage

    Funded Sep 13, 2021

    Thank you so much for your generous donations! This allowed me to purchase sturdy bottle holders for pur classroom. This may not sound very impactful, but every little thing adds up to a big difference in a busy classroom. No more knocked over bottles. No more ruined assignments because water spilled. Way less time waiting on drinks at the fountain! You've helped us keep our time and focus where it needs to be and not on cleaning up spills throughout the day or sending students out to get drinks constantly. We thank you so very much!”

    With gratitude,

    Mrs. Ussery

  • Functional, Clean Erase, Whiteboard!

    Funded Jan 21, 2019

    Thank you so much for your donation to our classroom. Something as simple as whiteboard makes a great difference when presenting lessons. The students have been able to use it easily because it cleans so efficiently. We eagerly awaited its arrival and when our school secretary call down to say, "Mrs. Ussery, you have a delivery in the office," my kids cheered because they knew what it was! This was an expense that I couldn't cover on my own and wasn't in the budget to be purchased through the school, so again, I greatly thank you for your generosity. This donation will impact students for several years to come!”

    With gratitude,

    Mrs. Ussery

  • Learning Center Organization

    Funded Mar 7, 2019

    Thank you so much for your generous donation. It has helped organize our center materials greatly. This simplifies our activities as far as clean up helping the students be successful in helping out around the classroom. We've used the containers for many different types of learning activities such as: wiki sticks for spelling practice, fluency pages and timers, sight word flashcards, nonfiction passages with comprehension questions, and list goes on and on! Thanks again for your generosity! My apologies for the tardiness of our thank you package!”

    With gratitude,

    Mrs. Ussery

Students spend a lot of time seated during the school day. I would like to get some flexible or alternative seating options within the classroom for them to choose from. Rather than sitting in a hard, traditional chair; they might choose to sit on an exercise ball, in a bean bag chair, or criss-cross with a lap table. Attention and focus increase markedly when students are comfortable. The colorful and attractive options for students will give them the freedom to work in a manner that is comfortable and productive. Flexible seating provides an outlet for burning off extra energy, assists in making the classroom a comfortable and desirable place to be, and is just fun!
