  • Resources for Classroom and Home

    Funded Sep 13, 2020

    Just want to start off first by thanking each and everyone of you. My students love their seat sacks which helps keep the clutter off of their desk or tables. They love the take home/school folders. They like to work in them everyday. The manipulative help with using different things in their books. These have helps my students in learning their numbers and letters as well as the letter sounds. Thank you again for all your help in getting my students resources they can use at home and at school.”

    With gratitude,

    Mrs. Leaf

  • Music and STEM Projects for Students!

    Funded Dec 3, 2019

    Again thank you so much for your donation. My students love building with the legos and the magnetic shapes. They get them out every chance they get. A lot of them follow the cards on the legos and build mazes. They like to see if others can get the ball through their maze. They also make cars to see which one is the fastest and which one can go the farthest.

    They love to build castles with the magnetic shapes. They have also learned how to make 3-D shapes out of them. It is nice seeing all of them work together to make something hands-on and meaningful to them.

    Again I want to thank you for you generous donation to help out our class!”

  • Students Listening To A Guest Speaker

    Funded Dec 6, 2014

    Thank you so much for the generous donation. I am truly grateful for what you did. My students and I love the carpet. When I told my students that we were getting a carpet for the floor, I had one student says, "Yes, we don't have to sit on the cold floor anymore!" They were supper excited. They asked every day when we were going to get it. When we finally got it they were out of the room. So I put it down and when they came back in they couldn't wait to sit down and look at all the pictures on it. They were so excited and said it was awesome! They love it just as much as I do. Thanks for putting a smile on my students face.

    I am using the carpet for whole group and to cut down on discipline. We also use the carpet when we are using the smartboard. My students are able to sit in one spot and not move. We are also using the carpet doing buddy reading. My students now fight over who can get on the carpet. They love to sit and read on it.

    This carpet boost my teaching and my students' learning by cutting down on behaviors and moving around a lot. My students are able to sit in one spot and focus on what I am teaching and I do not have to repeat myself so many times. Each student has a spot and they know where to sit and they do not move from that spot like they did before we had the carpet. I catch my students rubbing their hands on the carpet because they like how it feels. It is also good for sensory.

    Again I want to thank you for your generous donation to my fund. We are so happy and we are learning so much more!”

    With gratitude,

    Mrs. Leaf

My student are really great! They are so energetic and are eager to learn. My school is in a poor district with little resources to get materials we need for our classrooms. Our school's budget keeps getting lowered each year, and teachers are not getting the supplies they need.
