• Captivating Decor

  Funded Sep 12, 2022

  Thank you so much for all of your help. My kids are truly enjoying the new inclusive decor. We are now able to see various reflections of ourselves. It is nice to have some new decor in our classroom to brighten up our day. The kids are even drawing and copying the decorations and it shows in our art work. We are all enjoying the various art work and the borders show that we are all loved and all unique. We are different but we do share some similarities. Each child has something to offer, that is what makes up our great class dynamic.”

• Snack and Learn

  Funded May 4, 2022

  My kids were able to enjoy a good snack while they learned. Snacks are important to my Prekindergarten kids. They are always moving and getting hungry. Thank you for providing us with some needed nutrition. They really enjoy sorting and eating their goldfish snacks. The kids were able to use their snack breaks to fuel their minds while getting ready for their next class activity. These kids gobbled up the snacks each day. They learned to clean up after themselves and share with their friends. Using the carpet sweeper was also a clean up game changer! Thanks so much!”

• Grab and Learn!

  Funded Nov 4, 2021

  Thank you so much for the contributions to our class. This had made it so easy to grab and go to our tables for table top games. We have been having so much fun playing and learning in our class. We can't thank you enough for our new learning opportunities. The kids walk up grab their letter games and explore. We have been able to learn letters and play together. We are having a great time talking about our learning too. We can't wait for our learning to show through in our language. We love learning!”

• PreK Picassos!

  Funded Aug 28, 2021

  Thank you so much for your generosity. We are having a great time using the easel for our painting. It has been so much fun creating! We are now able to use paint, brushes to create our art in our very own designated center. We are clean and prepared for our painting. My kids love using the art center each day in order to express themselves artistically. It has been a great time being able to share and show are creations with other classes and our classmates. I really love that my kids know that someone donated this to our classroom. Thanks again for your help!”

• The Basics, Just the Basics

  Funded Oct 24, 2019

  My students have been using the new colored paper, crayons, and markers in order to express their creative stories. We have been having fun creating new art work. With the broom and the swifter we have been able to clean up in a snap. Together we have enjoyed the new supplies. Thank you so much for allowing our kids to make and create. We have been able to make vibrant colored covers for our writing pieces. Students were very appreciative about having others help us. We have enjoyed being able to talk about how people donate in order to help others, even though they do not know us it is great that they are willing to help. It has been a great life lesson learned. We hope to pay it forward. Thank you again!”

• Desperately Seeking Ink!

  Funded Mar 27, 2018

  Thank you for donating to our classroom. We are so pleased with the ink. We have been able to make copies of the kids work, give them new choice time centers and new paper choices because of your donation. My kids need so much and having this ink available in our classroom means that we can print copies of books that they need and enable new resources to meet their individual learning needs. Having the ink allows for my students needs to be met without me having to put in for copies, and that added convenience enables me to be able to work on other needs in my classroom. Thanks again!”

• Calm Our Senses to Stimulate Learning!

  Funded Mar 15, 2018

  Wow! What a great surprise! My classroom runs a lot smoother with these calming options. I am able to support more learning behaviors with options that calm and allow for more comfort. The bands are a big hit! Using these on our chairs keep busy feet calm. Using fidget spinners and fidget cubes really keep kids focused on the task and their hands off of their friends. Having more options in the classroom for kids who have a lot of energy opens new pathways for learning. I am here to support the needs of all of my kids, I appreciate all the help I can get! Thanks again.”

• Help! Technology Needed In K!

  Funded Jan 25, 2018

  Thank you so much for taking the time to donate to our class! My students are so excited about our new computer. The new computer allows us to connect to the Internet and project on to our smart board. We are able to watch our learning videos from Scholastic, interact with gonoodle, and listen to our diagraph songs. Students are starting to use the key pad to learn how to type. We will be connecting a mouse to learn how to click and control the prompt. We are so happy anytime new technology is available to us. We are now able to connected and stay current with today's technology. Thank you again for helping my students and for helping me!”

• New Books To Stimulate Learning!

  Funded Jan 25, 2018

  Wow! We cannot thank you enough for all of the new books. We are so happy with all of the new titles we have available to us. We have been reading books by one of our favorite series author, Mo Willems. Elephant and Piggie are two of our favorite characters. We have been able to discuss character feelings, setting, and problems each character has faced. We work together in figuring out how they will solve their problems. The book conversations are really taking off! I am so excited to see my children making text to self connections. With these new books we are now learning about chapter books, and learning how to build stamina by reading harder, longer books. These books will have a lasting affect on my students for years to come. Thank you again!”

• Help K Create with Coding!

  Funded Mar 30, 2017

  The kids just love our OSMO! We have just started school and what a great opportunity for us to be able to use the OSMO letters, numbers, and drawing to get our learning on a path to success. We have many varied ways in which we learn, using Osmo allows for differentiation in my classroom. Using Osmo allows me to meet my children's needs in a way that is fun and leads to academic success. We wish we had more. The Osmo is a wonderful tool for all of my students. I can already see their excitement for learning when they use the Osmo. Thank you so much for your generous donations.”
