Flexible Seating
Funded Nov 15, 2017Thank you so much for your generous donations to our classroom flexible seating. The students are so excited to be able to have different options as to where they get to work. As they move around and use flexible seating options through-out the room, I have noticed their engagement in the lesson has greatly increased. They are excited about learning and having their flexible seating which allows each student to help pick their seating to help them focus their best. again thank you for supporting our education!”

Let's Write the Right Way!
Funded Feb 28, 2017Thank you so much for the document camera donation! We have used it everyday in class since we got it. The students are able to come up and show their work to the whole class as they are working out questions or writing samples. They are able to become engaged in real time with the technology that we are using in class. They love watching as I show them the examples as I am completing them at a table and they get to see it directly on the smart board. They love getting to act as the teacher and do the same. It is exciting and relevant to them. I have seen students who were shy in sharing their answers out loud love to now participate by coming and displaying their work through the camera.
Thank you for helping my students gain confidence and have instruction time become more relevant and exciting and hence more meaningful for them. I know they are really 'capturing' what is being taught!”

Future Award Winning Authors
Funded Sep 7, 2013My students were so excited when the book binding machine arrived at our classroom. They immediately began to brainstorm what their first classroom book would be about. They felt that having something so amazing being donated to our classroom must have been done by a superhero! So they wrote stories about superheroes. They worked through the writing process with such excitement, that none realized they were working, rather they were enjoy writing and revising and editing their work. Finally we completed the final copy and they were so thrilled to be able to get to publish their book. We worked together to bind all the pages together. Now, they are going to be taking turns to take it home and share with their parents. The students have already worked through the writing process several times this school year, when they get to the publishing point they are thrilled to actually bind their writing. This is great motivation to write and follow the steps of the writing process correctly!
Thank you again so much for creating a motivation and donating such a great tool for teaching my students to write!”
