The Write Table for Us
Funded Aug 23, 2022An amazing huge thank you from my students and myself for all of your generous donations! This project was able to fund amazing write on tables that allow students to work in small groups with me as well as use the table as a white board to write and practice. This project has allowed us to declutter our classroom and give away all the different whiteboards we have used in the past since now we have the table to write on! The kids are always so excited when they find out they can write on the furniture! Thank you again!”

Virtual Resources for Virtual Learners
Funded Aug 23, 2021Thank you so much for your help and support for the students of PS 139! This project was so helpful for me this year. With this project I was able to purchase online resources that will be used for many years to come. The resources I purchased are to support students with their phonemic awareness, reading decoding skills and fluency, vocabulary, and phonic games.
The students love to play the games and participate in the different activities and have fun while learning both in school and at home.
Thank you again for all of you help!”

For the Love of Reading
Funded Dec 26, 2019Thank you so much for all of your generous support! With your help, my students were able to get so many books to engage them throughout the year! These books will help young readers get ready to read by looking at wordless picture books, learning how to point and think of a story. Older students will be able to read different leveled books on different topics of interest to them while still supporting the curriculum. As you can see in the picture the students were so excited to get these books and watch their library grow!”
