Funded Jan 14, 2020"Making Kinders Pros!" had a great impact in the delivery of curriculum to my students this school year. Although, I created this project with different purposes in mind; our reality was quite different after we received our package. My students and myself were thrilled with this project being funded more so as soon as our school custodian brought our package into our classroom. This project was intended to broaden their access to technology in class and be able to have students perform their required computer based program usages in class.
A few weeks after receiving our package, our school and many around the world were suddenly shut down due to the world pandemic being caused by the COVID-19. With very little time to gather any belongings and with to teach remotely from my home, this surface pro was a life saver. I was able to use this technology daily from my home to do face to face lessons with all 17 of my kindergarten students through daily Zoom sessions. This was also a great source because the applications and programs that it came with were very up to date. I was able to create videos to showcase my students their work with teacher made videos, and lessons to present new topics to my students. Beyond that, the programs it contained were so innovative that I was able to use a picture I had of my classroom, and use it as by background during my Zoom sessions with my students, in which they got kick out of saying that it was like we were back in our classroom.
All though this project ended up being used in a different setting as it was meant for to begin with. It had a great impact in the day to day lessons and education I was able to give my students during our 12 weeks of distance learning. The generosity of all the donors that made this project come to life is truly appreciated. The 2019-2020 school might have come to an end, but this surface pro will definitely continue to be used as the new school year begins through distance learning and when we are allowed to return to our classrooms my students will benefit from it for years to come.”

This classroom project was brought to life by SONIC Drive-In and 6 other donors.Count on Us! We Count on You!
Funded Nov 6, 2019We are beyond grateful for your generous donation to our classroom! As soon as the huge box was delivered to our classroom my students little faces brightened up with excitement. They were thrilled and eager as we put the bins together and organized as a class all of the wonderful Math manipulatives for them to put to use right away.
At the early age of Kindergarten, children make easier connection and demonstrate understanding of math concepts when they are able to touch the numbers they are making. These concrete connections are imperative in building these foundations and help create a love for learning at such an early stage.
With the help of these supplies my students will be able to better perform in their daily math lessons and will also be better prepared for the upcoming standardized tests they will be taking in the coming months.”

This classroom project was brought to life by Chevron Fuel Your School.Bring Color to Our Kindergartner's
Funded Dec 19, 2018Thank you very much for your generous donation to our Kindergartners. Your generosity and kindness has made a great impact in our classroom. Each part of your donation was a grain in our students attaining a color printer to use in our very own classroom. Our class has a great variety of learners of which require instruction in different forms. These personalized learning tools have made an impact in my students' academic success.
With this color printer I have been able to make learning fun and appealing to my students. We have made our very own bingo games in which the students can review math and reading skills learned in class. Students have been able to have a sense of ownership of their work and learning materials since we have been able to personalize them individualize for each child.
All in all we are very grateful and appreciative for your donation. With this great help our students have been able to have a more enjoyable and learning experience in my class and in Kindergarten in general.”
