Thank you so much for funding this project. I am so grateful and excited and I can’t wait to see the look on my students’ faces when they realize there are more anchor charts hanging around the classroom. Because of your support, students will have supportive anchor charts that helps with learned skills, as well as more learning materials from the copying paper placed in small group stations that allows them to work and learn with peers. Thank you again for your generous support!”

My students were very excited and grateful for the hat and gloves set, as well as the book that they received from your generous support. With it still being cold, students are able to keep their little hands and head warm while walking to school. You have made a life long impact on my students abilities of wanting to come to school during the cold days.
The book that students received was the beginning of them starting their own library at home with the positive engagement of wanting to learn how to read. Students ability to increase their phonemic awareness skills has increased. With your support of always willing to help my students learn and caring for their well-being does not go unnoticed and we are grateful for having great support team.”
Helping to fund our Let's Replenish and Protect our Learning Materials has provided students with more durable and colorful learning and engaging materials during small groups. Our classroom now has more colorful posters hanging around the classroom which students can reference while learning. These materials is very visually appealing to students because of the colorful and protective brightness.
Our class materials is now again germ free because students are able to wipe what they used off for their peers. These materials can now be used over and over again. My students are very pleased with the protection of the colorful materials they are able to use for their positive learning engagements. Thank you again for your generous support.”

With your support of funding the HP Desk Top project for our classroom has helped students with progressing within their academic literacy skills. Students are able to access a vast amount of information through the internet when learning about different subject (literacy) areas. It also gives students multiple opportunities to learn through educational software that is not provided by the school district.
The HP Desk Top has made student's learning engaging and interactive because of the monitor's size whereas students are able to see clearly. It is evident that learning to navigate a desk top computer and utilizing basic digital tools is essential in today's world and has made impact on students' critical technology skills.”

With supporting our class project Healthy Helps Us Learn, Part 2 has contributed to having a positive impact on students ability to learn and focus without being hungry. Because some students arrive to school late and have not eaten breakfast, I am able to provide them with a snack that holds their little bellies until our class go to lunch.
When the materials arrived, students were very excited. They started ripping the boxes open, taking the items out of the box and smiling. It was such a joy to see their little faces light up with excitement and joy. Words cannot express the gratitude or appreciation that my students and I have for you all. We truly are thankful and grateful for your support. You all have really made a positive impact on my students learning and engagement.”

The materials from this project has helped my students progress within their literacy and math skills. Scholars are now able to independently engage in small group without assistance, as well as having positive interaction with their peers while practicing their academic skills.
When the materials arrived, students were very excited and eager to open the boxes. Once they opened the boxes, they each went to one of the small group tables to learn how to use the learning materials. I was very pleased to see my students independently trying to utilize the materials without modeling from myself (teacher). These materials has made a great impact on students ability to enhance their literacy and math skills. Thank you all again for your support!”
When the materials arrived, students were very excited to use them for our SABES curriculum. Their little eyes were filled with joy. For our SABES unit 1, students used the materials to build a bridge that could hold the most weight. The built a bridge using the blocks and Lego's which they had so much fun with. After building their bridges, they placed heavy objects from around the classroom to see if their bridge would collapse.
The Ramps and Pathways materials will be used for our unit 3 SABES curriculum that teaches students' about force and motion. I would like to say again that my students and I really appreciate your generous support with bringing our class project to life with the materials that they are able to use with our Science curriculum. Thank you!”

Having the bins in the literacy center makes it easier and accessible for students to find what is needed for their small group lesson. The storage bags helps keeps students materials neat and organized at their tables which makes it easier for students to focus during instructions.
When the materials arrived to our classroom, students were very excited. They begin taking their learning materials from their cubbies and placing them inside of the storage bags. To help keep center materials organized, I will continue to change the labels for new lessons so that students are able to independently work in small group centers. Thank you again for your support!”
When the materials arrived the our classroom, YW students' face lit up like a light bulb. They weee so excited. However, my students love having the colorful cushion seats in the Calming Corner because it gives them a relaxing sensation of calming down when they get frustrated. Students have been blending and segmenting sounds with the Snap Together Letter Blocks, as well as using the Alphabet Bowling Ball set to await with letter sound recognition. Having these materials accessible for students to use has helped small group centers run smoothly. Students will continue to learn using the materials to practice their literacy skills and enhance their academic progress. Thank you for your generous support.”

Through arts, students develop skills like resilience, a meaning of building positive self-esteem, and a growth mindset that helps them master their craft, and do well academically, and be successful in life after high school. My students enjoy engaging in art activties because it give them a fulfillment of excitement and motivation while using their imaginations.
Giving students the greatest gift of art and humanity is to help them understand, appreciate, and the ability to be creative. Art is at the very core of our identity as humans.
These materials will increase students social interaction, eye-hand coordination, fine motor skills and imagination and experimentation through creativity. Some of my students are unable to verbalize their thoughts, so providing them with a variety of art materials allows them to express their thoughts through drawings.
