A Classroom with Color
Funded Mar 31, 2025I want to take a moment to share how the technology you've generously funded is making a real difference in our students' lives. Thanks to your support, we've been able to incorporate cutting-edge tools into the classroom, and the impact has been truly inspiring.
One major improvement has been the ability to print resources in color. This seemingly simple change has had a big impact on my students. They're not only incredibly appreciative, but they're also better able to visualize and understand the material. For my English learners especially, having colorful visuals helps them make connections to their primary language and grasp new concepts more effectively.
Printing resources for learning centers has also transformed how we engage with the material. It's allowed us to facilitate interactive games like matching pictures to words, playing Go Fish with vocabulary, and building sentences using image prompts. These activities make learning both fun and effective.
Thank you so much for the opportunity you've provided for my students. Your generosity is truly making a difference.”
With gratitude,

Funded Feb 29, 2024I want to thank you very much! Seeing the face of happiness of my students when I show them everything we have received for the class in priceless. They get really excited and can not wait to start using the materials we receive.
Through this project my students have been able to have extra STEM bins to play and use their imagination. I have been able to see first hand the bins each students is more attracted to and what they enjoy using. Something I have enjoyed through this has been questions my students how they build what the have and what they used. I have also encouraged students to try and connect each project together. This has enhanced their thinking and they start pushing each other and thinking outside of the box.
Thank you very much for funding this project! Words can not explain how grateful we are for this!”

Learning the Importance of Money and Time
Funded Sep 20, 2023First and for most I want to thank you for the donation you have made to my classroom. My students and myself are grateful for this. The day my students saw all the materials that were donated they were extremely happy and excited to start using everything we had received. They have been beyond happy about getting the magnet tiles and creating different projects with them during their exploration time. They build houses, car parking structures, and big towers that represent places they have seen.
The money bags were the most exciting thing. They were so happy the day they all got to see and feel the fake money and pinpoint the differences between all the dollar bills. As of this moment they have been introduced to the dollar bill, pennies, nickels, dimes, and quarters. They were fascinated about being able to actually use them in class and no have to only learn from them through their text book.
Moving forward we will be working on what it means to spend money and earning it in class. They are very excited about having an in class store and getting to use the money the earn in class to buy things for themselves. This donation has really impacted my students in a positive way because them have been able to actually work hands on and visually see the materials they have.”
