• A Healthy, Cozy, Clean Classroom!

  Funded Nov 20, 2023

  First of all I'd like to thank you so much for your generous contributions to our kindergarten and second grade students. Your donations to our students have made such an impact on creating a healthy, cozy, clean classroom.

  When the Clorox wipes, plug-ins, and Kleenex arrived, the students helped organize them in the storage closet and clean the tables off. Our room smelled sparkly clean! I personally took the extra kleenex to their homeroom classes for distribution and classroom use. The students were thrilled to have new markers and enjoyed the colorful handouts I made using the colored cardstock. They were bubbling with enthusiasm.”

• Latino Representation in Our School!

  Funded Sep 28, 2023

  Thank you so very much for your generous funding of my proposal! I was inspired to have our Multilingual students celebrate Hispanic Heritage Month in October being that 87% of students identify as hispanic. The "moment" that was made possible by your contributions was when students participated in a Hispanic Heritage Parade. Many dressed up, created posters & flags using donated materials, and waved flags through the hallways of our decorated schools. The pride that exuded from them was palpable!!!

  Additionally, I have discovered the importance of having my diverse students represented in the books we read in class. I primarily have students whose families immigrated from Puerto Rico, Ecuador, Yemen, Ukraine and many other Latin American countries. As a minority teacher myself, I know how wonderful and rare it is to be able to make a cultural connection with someone. That is exactly the type of experience my students have been afforded via this funding of multicultural books.”

• Back-to-School Basics for my Multilingual Learners!

  Funded Sep 10, 2023

  Thank you so very much for your generous funding of my proposal! My students were ecstatic to receive the items and help me open the Amazon boxes. I was excited to be able to give the students some of your donations to bring home so they could have resources at home to complete their homework.

  Your donation of materials have been helpful in having my students gain some confidence in themselves and tranisition to their new school. Students were excited to play some of the games that were donated and began learning some English while having fun and being highly engaged. They had so much fun, they didn't realize they were learning!”

• Seeing the World in Color!

  Funded Jun 12, 2023

  I am happy to say that your book contributions are helping my classroom library look more representative of the students in my multilingual classroom. Some connections that have been made are characters with skin colors that resemble theirs, foods they are familiar with and that are served in their home, and people who dress like their families do.

  These books are sparking my students' confidence, joy, empowerment, and success. The enthusiasm and engagement for listening to my read-aloud is over the roof. I can't thank you enough!”

• Classic Children's Books and Centers

  Funded Mar 30, 2023

  My multilingual students were so excited to have these additions to our classes. The highlights of these donations are the Alphabet Sounds Teaching Tubs and the Alphabet Mystery box. The students beg to use them every class. I have had to make them into more of a reward.

  These resources have brought more engagement to my lessons and a higher retention of key vocabulary and letter sounds and letter identification. Thank you so much for your kindness and generosity. It is making such a difference in my classroom!”

• Engaging Educational Resources for Multilingual Leaners!

  Funded Mar 2, 2023

  Thank you for you generosity. I spend a lot of time looking at Pinterest and online resources to reach my students. Many of these innovative teachers publish their ideas on Teachers Pay Teachers. I have many ideas saved from these resources and now will have the ability to use them.

  The Teachers Pay Teachers gift cards have helped me with effective planning that can reach my multilingual student. I have purchased unique and creative resources that were made by teachers and are extremely engaging. Thanks so much!”
