  • Imagine the Possibilities!

    Funded Feb 28, 2019

    Thank you so much for helping our project become a reality! The students have loved getting into the new materials during their station time. Watching their imaginations come to life has been a true joy! They are engaging with each other and playing together in such a wonderful way. We have seen tremendous change in some students who before were hesitant to join in with others. These materials are helping us grow future leaders who can collaborate effectively. We truly appreciate your donations and support!”

  • Books that Make You Think!

    Funded Oct 20, 2018

    Thank you so much for supporting our students. We are loving getting to enjoy new stories. The students especially like the wordless picture books like Chalk and I Walk With Vanessa. They have enjoyed creating their own ideas and stories about what is happening. The informational text Karate Hour has been a big hit as we are beginning to study informational texts. I have previewed the other texts and cannot wait to share them with the students. I know they will enjoy them just as much as I did. Thank you again for your support. It means so much to us!”

  • HELP! iPad Needed in Intervention

    Funded Aug 1, 2018

    Thank you so much for your generous donations! The iPad allowed us to complete our beginning of the year assessments. We were able to get the assessments done in a timely manner thanks to the ease of the iPad app. We are looking forward to using engaging apps in reading intervention. Students will have the opportunity to create their own books, take pictures, record their reading, and use other new and innovative apps to inspire their learning and show their thinking. We are so excited to see all the amazing things readers are able to do with the iPad! Thank you again!”

  • Teacher Summer Reading

    Funded May 1, 2018

    Thank you so much for donating to my project! I got my books just before summer began and have truly enjoyed diving into them over break. I took the books with me on our weekend trips to the lake. There is nothing better than reading under the sun!

    Lester Laminack in his book The Ultimate Read-Aloud Resource describes books as best friends. I have certainly felt that this summer! These books have gone everywhere with me and I have enjoyed every second I have spent with them. I feel rejuvenated and inspired for the new year to come. I truly appreciate your support!”

    Funded Mar 27, 2018

    Thank you so much for donating to my project. I have been slowly sharing the books with our students. They have truly enjoyed them!

  • Historians and Scientists on the Hunt for Books

    Funded Dec 21, 2017

    Thank you so much for supporting my project. I cannot wait to share the books with our students. I know they are going to be so excited to read them. We are currently studying informational texts and researching weather. I cannot wait to let students compare and contrast the information in these books with the information they have researched online. Our school only had a few weather books in the library, so we have been sharing with 4 other classes. I know the students will be thrilled to have books that can stay in our classroom and be read each and every day. Thank you again for supporting our students!”

They have been so excited about them that they are already asking for other books in the series. I am so thrilled that they have become so excited about reading! Thank you for inspiring our students to become readers!”

  • Teachers Need to Learn Too!

    Funded Feb 21, 2017

    Thank you so much for your donations! I am so excited to begin digging into my new books. The lessons in The Reading Strategies and The Writing Strategies Books have already been so helpful! It is such a wonderful resource for me when I feel that I have done everything I know to do for students. I have enjoyed being able to pull it off the shelf and quickly identify the area of need and find a specific lesson to help my students. I cannot wait to get into Writers Are Readers and Purposeful Play! They are on my summer reading list. Thank you again for helping me grow professionally so I can be the best teacher for my students!”

  • Get Nerdy With It

    Funded Aug 8, 2016

    Dear Donor,

    Thank you so much for donating to my project. I have begun to share many of the stories with students and they are loving them! This morning, the students had the books out and were reading with a partner. It is such a joy to watch their faces light up and hear their laughter. I have truly enjoyed watching these books spark their love of reading.

    I have noticed that these new books are the first ones the students gravitate towards during independent reading. We have even had the opportunity to learn problem-solving strategies when someone else is reading the book they want. :) The students LOVE to find a friend and read the stories together. I often overhear them helping each other with the words and giggling together throughout the book. Thank you so much for helping ignite a love of reading in our school!”
