  • Let’s Say No to Germs in Class

    Funded May 6, 2025

    Thank you for providing hygiene skills for all my students. It just came on Teacher's Appreciation Day, so I take it as one of my best presents.

    My students are used to pumping sanitizer all the time and I want them to keep having this type of habit forever. Holding sanitizers in my classroom invites my teaching to stay safe and be engaged in class which are my two pillars as a teacher.”

  • Paper To Run Copies!

    Funded Feb 6, 2025

    Students saw our custodian bringing two heavy boxes to our classroom and they were extremely curious to know what was inside. When I mentioned that we got a donation of copy paper for our classroom, they were so happy and relieved that smiles were all around me.

    This donation is essential when you know that students are visual learners, and they need to manipulate paper to understand what to do in class. Students carry folders in class where they are full of sentence frames, conversation starters, and multiplication charts. All of them are hard copy material because they need to feel the paper to learn.

    Soon we will begin working on our last project of the year where paper is essential. Your donation will be a great help to make my students feel engaged with their learning.”

    With gratitude,

    Ms. Cisneros

  • Let's Do Our Warm-Ups!

    Funded Jan 14, 2025

    Two big boxes arrived in our classroom weeks ago and my students were eager to see the items that were inside. They saw it and found that there were two types of warm up. Most of them were so happy because they are working hard to close academic gaps. Well, I decided to write their first names, and we began using them.

    These tools are the best for transitioning from one subject to another or when launching our class. Students are engaged when reading and making connections with the reading or solving math problems related to decimals and fractions.

    Overall, these items fit my student's needs, and I hope they are getting ready to thrive during state test.”

    With gratitude,
