This classroom project was brought to life by Bill Gates and 7 other donors.A Whole New School Year!
Funded Aug 12, 2021These resources have proven to be integral to the start of the school year. I was able to initiate a change in my teaching that is more suited to students after two years of remote or hybrid learning. These resources have been a great help with better educating my students.
The flipchart paper and sharpies have been great tools during our daily reading workshop lessons. They have helped during mini-lessons and creating anchor charts! The adjustable laptop table has been great in giving me flexibility in how I teach! I can teach from anywhere in my classroom now and can even give students a new workplace!
I can't tell you enough how much your donations have impacted my classroom and students. Thank you so very much!”

This classroom project was brought to life by Dollar General Literacy Foundation and 8 other donors.Reading is for Learners!
Funded Mar 16, 2021Thank you so much for funding this classroom project. More books in the classroom have been proven to create students who read more and more! My goal is to continuously have many options for students are they go through their personal reading journeys. You will never know all of the impacts you will have on each of my students, but know you've provided them with options, choices, and new experiences!
I incorporate A LOT of independent reading and choice in my classroom. Students are more likely to enjoy reading when they have a choice. As adults, we know that you are more likely to do something more often when you enjoy it! I love giving students the power to make choices for themselves!
Again, thank you so much for your kind and generous donations, you are making a difference!”

This classroom project was brought to life by The DonorsChoose Community and 5 other donors.High Quality and Engaging Instructional Tools
Funded Jan 4, 2021Thank you so much for the generous donations. This school year, I have been looking for ways to engage and improve students learning, while keeping everything accessible for in person and remote learning students. The ability to purchase items from Teachers Pay Teachers has been a blessing. It has been such a time saver and has allowed me to focus on assessing and helping students learn and less time creating assignments.
A huge chunk of these gift cards were used to add more engaging elements to reading units at all grade levels. My students have enjoyed using these new activities to show their learning and engage in meaningful discussions with classmates. I can't express enough how much access to these resources have helped with time management. Since moving to a remote/hybrid learning environment, I have had to remake a lot of in class assignments to fit this model. This has taken so much time away from getting to know students and helping them grow.
These resources have helped to create a more meaningful and accessible classroom environment during this time. I am grateful for the generosity of all the donors. My students have been greatly impacted by this. Thank you!”

This classroom project was brought to life by FamilyAlbum and 3 other donors.New Books for a New School Year!
Funded Oct 14, 2020I can't thank you enough for your donations to my classroom. Students came back this week and as you can tell from the images, some books have ALREADY been checked out by students. I think they are actually excited to have access to a larger selection of books.
I know many of my students have not been as avid readers as they once were, due to remote learning. I am excited and hopeful that I can continue to encourage them to read and find new books for that will interest them. We engage in independent reading only a daily basis.
Your donations will help me to show the value of reading and the importance of choice. I can't express to you how impactful you donations will be on my students learning, growth, and love for reading.”

This classroom project was brought to life by An anonymous classroom supporter and 10 other donors.Learning About History Through Novels
Funded Feb 6, 2019Thank you for funding this project! It created a wonderful experience of allowing my students to read about history from different perspectives!
My 8th grade reading classes participated in book clubs where each group read about World War 2, but from different perspectives. They read about the experiences of people from different countries and different experiences.
It's important to me that my students learn to look at different situations and conflicts from all different lenses. This skill will greatly benefit my students in the future as they become adults and leaders. Thank you again so much for helping me to better prepare my students for their futures!”

With One Book We Can Change the World!
Funded Sep 24, 2018I cannot thank you enough for the donations to help get these books in my students hands! We will soon be starting our unit of this new novel, and I can't wait for my students to explore and enjoy it. Students will spend time during the unit not only reading great literature, but also learning valuable skills that will help them become successful adults in the future. We will be learning all about analyzing a text at a deeper level and citing evidence to support a claim.
We will use the novel in many different ways. Students will work with partners, groups, and alone to master skills and improve reading. I hope this book can instill some excitement and love of reading within even my most reluctant readers.
I know my students will love this book, and it's all thanks to you! You have helped my students grow in reading and critical thinking. Thank you so much very every generous donation given! Words can't express what this means to my students.”
