• 3rd Grade Digital Storytellers and Artists

  Funded Mar 27, 2013

  I want to let you all know my students love the new iPad mini and painting supplies you helped bring to our classroom. My students love creating art using applications on the iPad minis! They also really love the watercolor paints and paper donated to our classroom.

  I can't tell you how much of an impact you all have made to our classroom. I find it so important for my students to be engaged in everyday learning. A big part of student involvement comes through the technology in the classroom. With the iPad mini I am now able to make connections through all academic areas and digital art. Plus, the kids really love it!

  Again, thank you all so much for making such a great difference in our classroom!”

  Funded Aug 10, 2012

  Thank you very much for donating to our class project "Financing for the Future." My students have greatly appreciated the Math games, pretend currency, poster boards, organizational bins, and art supplies for our classroom.

  My students especially love the Math board games. They ask me very frequently to take them to lunch with them and use them in the classroom! They love working in groups together and learning about budgeting, spending, and managing money. I hope they will apply all these skills to their real world lives in the future. Please know they are getting great skills and knowledge from your generous donations.

• Planting for the Environment with Third Graders!

  Funded Jan 10, 2011

  Thank you so much for your generous donations! My students love all the planting supplies! We have learned so much about plants.

• Around The World With Senior Citizens!

  Funded Jun 14, 2010

  I would like to take this opportunity to thank you for your generous donation. This donation has greatly helped my students in their Social Studies curriculum. They have benefited from the classroom map, class set of markers, crayons, art supplies, and the class laminator! The boards were a great display to teach others about the content we are learning. The students had so much fun creating the boards that represent each community around the world. These boards have been apart of our routine Social Studies lessons. The travel brochures were also a great learning tool for my class! I thank you again for your donation and know my students that you too!”
