Teacher Tools to Tackle Technology
Funded Sep 11, 2024My students and I cannot thank you enough for your generosity in giving to our classroom. With your help, I was able to purchase some new materials from Teachers Pay Teachers to help supplement and reinforce the curriculum we are using in school. My students love the games and projects that we are doing with the resources and I love that I can easily print them in color and laminate them for durability. We will be able to use them for years to come.
The games and posters also help to reinforce concepts learned in class and my students enjoy referring to the posters and playing games daily. I have also created more centers with the printable materials. My students love coming in to see what new things they will use every day while we work in centers. Thank you again for your generosity and kindness!”

Funded Mar 3, 2020Thank you so much for funding our latest classroom project! We have a small group of students who have greatly benefitted from this project. My classroom is an Emotional Support classroom in which my students have difficulty developing positive coping skills and dealing with stressors in an appropriate manner. Although my students face many challenges, they are bright, creative, loving students who have a strong desire to learn and overcome obstacles. They are smart, funny, and truly make my job worthwhile.
One of the many areas we focus on in our classroom is social skills. Throughout the day we meet and discuss ways in which we can cope with things that we can and can't control. Since it is an elementary classroom we are laying the foundation for how to appropriately handle ourselves when dealing with stressors. A love of learning and reading is emphasized and the books that were donated with the help of your generosity have greatly impacted our groups. My students work very hard to utilize their coping skills on a daily basis.
My students really enjoy reading and the books that were provided were exactly what they needed and deserve. They have related to the characters in the stories and have been able to learn in an exciting and engaging way. We truly can't thank you enough for making this possible.”

Funded Mar 7, 2019We truly can't thank you enough for your support and generosity in funding our project "Mindful of Our Emotions". My classroom is an Emotional Support classroom in which my students have difficulty developing positive coping skills and dealing with stressors in an appropriate manner. Although my students face many challenges, they are bright, creative, loving students who have a strong desire to learn and overcome obstacles. They are smart, funny, and truly make my job worthwhile.

Since it is an elementary classroom we are laying the foundation for how to appropriately handle ourselves when dealing with stressors. A love of learning and reading is emphasized and the books that were donated with the help of your generosity have greatly impacted our groups. The students have been able to identify with the characters in the stories and relate the stories to their own lives. We often read the books together and my students also gravitate towards the books when they have their breaks or at recess. New and exciting stories have given our groups a new boost that my students truly deserve. The room diffuser and essential oils have also added a relaxing and calming aspect to our classroom environment while meeting their unique sensory needs.
My students really enjoy reading and the books that were provided were exactly what they needed and deserve. They have related to the characters in the stories and have been able to learn in an exciting and engaging way. We truly can't thank you enough for making this possible. It is so wonderful to be a part of a community that truly supports educators and our students! Thank you so much!!”
