• Building a Diverse Picture Book Library

  Funded May 10, 2023

  It is with great gratitude and appreciation that I submit this impact letter to you for your kindness and willingness to give to our classroom. With the literature, books, and the technology to read the books, the students have gained a better understanding of the diverse cultures in our country, as well as appreciate their own culture more. It has been a positive influence that they have access to everyday and the students are building and developing a respect and understanding of their cultures.

  Having access to multicultural literature has empowered my students to have positive attitudes towards diversity and tolerance, and that it is okay for others to be different from what they are used to! That is priceless in the world we live in today. They will one day be respectful and character minded citizens of this world, that have sensitivity and tolerance for all people.

  Again, thank you for your donation. Our children's faces lit up when the supplies arrived! They beg me everyday to switch out their books. This is also gaining their love for reading. We thank you that our students have an abundance in school, even though that may not be the case elsewhere.”

• Learning Through Play Is Essential!

  Funded Jan 8, 2022

  Thank you for your generous donation to Through Play is Essential. This has allowed my students to be able to choose a Lakeshore STEM building tub to take their spots and use the star builders, stretch connectors, and waffle builders to create and construct independently. Students create and share their designs with our class. These materials allow my students to be creative and use open-ended tools to work individually and eventually with others. These open-ended STEM tubs allow my students to "play", explore, engineer, plan, cooperate, socialize, share, think critically, reflect, and LEARN! They are fondly referred to as "The Blue Fun Tubs".
