Projector
Funded Nov 28, 2023Thank you so much for donating to this project. This project has had a huge impact in my classroom. Because of your kind donations, we have a wonderful new projector in Room 16. Our new projector makes learning so much easier! Our lessons are greatly improved because students can easily see the materials I display. They can watch me demonstrate skills we are learning. The kids were so excited to see a picture on the screen that was clear, crisp and colorful. You are wonderful for making this possible in Room 16.”

Lap Desks and Surf Seats
Funded Sep 17, 2019Thank you so much for your generosity! Your donation to this project has helped our classroom in such a big way. We have alternative seating in our classroom-- a sofa, butterfly chairs, camp chairs, and a bench. So students sometimes sit at spots without a table top. At the beginning of the year, we used clipboards at those spots, but I noticed students had to slouch over when they were writing. So I did some research and found these surf seats and adjustable lap desks. When they arrived, my students fell in love! They adore using the surf seats and lap desks at their spots. These materials help them stay comfortable and focused. Thank you for making a huge impact on the my students' learning!”
