  • Help Us to See Clearly!

    Funded Oct 14, 2023

    I am overwhelmed with gratitude and excitement as I extend my heartfelt thanks to you for your generous donation towards the purchase of the new ViewSonic Projector for my classroom. Your support has made a significant impact on the learning environment for my students, and I am truly appreciative of your dedication to their education.

    The ViewSonic Projector has already proven to be an invaluable asset in our classroom. With its advanced technology and crystal-clear projection, students can now see educational materials with enhanced clarity, making lessons more engaging and comprehensible. The projector facilitates interactive learning experiences, allowing me to present visual aids, educational videos, and interactive lessons that captivate the students' attention and reinforce key concepts.

    Your contribution has not only made a difference in our daily lessons but has also opened up new possibilities for creative and collaborative teaching methods. Thank you for making a lasting impact on the educational journey of my students.”

    With gratitude,

    Mr. Bishop

  • Resources Galore!

    Funded Jan 27, 2023

    Thank you greatly for your donation to our classroom via Donors Choose! I've consistently been humbled by the generosity of many in making classroom lessons, content, and technology more accessible for our students. This project allowed me to explore a variety of hands-on, motivating, and engaging lessons to implement within the classroom. I have made several purchases with the Teachers Pay Teachers gift card provided by this project.

    At the end of the school year, when students are finding themselves ever ready for summer break, this project allowed me to give them a critical thinking activity that encompassed many of the skills we learned about through the year. Their work on this project was amazing! Another activity I purchased allowed students to reflect on their learning process over the year and share that with an incoming middle school student. These projects, made possible by you, allowed students to show creativity, critical thinking, reflection, and pride.

    I'm grateful for your donation to our classroom, and I know my students' learning experience was made better with your help!”

    With gratitude,

    Mr. Bishop

  • Refilling our Reward Pantry!

    Funded Mar 8, 2022

    I want to send a heart felt thank you for donating to our project and helping to bring it into our classroom. It makes a huge impact on students and myself as well to know that we have support from individuals such as yourselves.

    By receiving these materials we are able to host our Panther Rewards store for students to purchase items they have been working toward. Students having the ability to "cash in" their positive behaviors to receive a tangible item makes all the difference in promoting positive interactions.

    Additionally, we are able to teach concepts rooted in financial literacy that students will benefit for years to come. Again, thank you so much.”

    With gratitude,

    Mr. Bishop

  • Learning Financial Literacy and School Citizenship withTasty Rewards

    Funded Oct 31, 2021

    I am so grateful for such a generous donation to our classroom. This project allows for students to practice financial literacy skills while being rewarded for consistently positive behavior and excellent citizenship. By creating a team store with the items that were donated, students have been able to see options for what they would like to work towards, and eventually purchase, with their earned digital "ebucks". Students learn to balance their account and see how much they currently have, as well as what needs to be earned additionally (or saved), for larger purchases. Afterward, we spend time deducting the amount spent from their accounts and balance them again. Students are taking an active role in this process and are utilizing skills learned in Math, and our Hospitality course. It has been great to watch their growth - all thanks to such kind donations. Thank you again, so much!”

    With gratitude,

    Mr. Bishop

  • Making History Come Alive with Full Color Primary Source Documents!

    Funded Oct 4, 2021

    I want to extend an additional note of thanks and share how your donation has helped to improve the learning in our classroom. We often have the opportunity to analyze documents and artifacts that provide students with first-hand accounts and images of what life was like during the time period in which we're studying. The goal of this project was to allow students to do this with color copies of resources.

    Fortunately, with your support, we were able to make this happen. And what a cool experience it is. The first set of activities we did, students were thrilled to see handouts provided to them in color. It brings a new level of understanding to the activity, and the ability for students to better visualize and conceptualize topics we are learning about.

    I can tell it makes the activities and learning more enjoyable, even if just a bit. In the field of education, whatever we can do to engage students and improve their successes - I believe its worth it. Thank YOU for helping to make it happen!”

    With gratitude,

    Mr. Bishop

  • Learning and Technology for the 21st Century Learner

    Funded Aug 29, 2021

    It is with sincere thanks that I write to let you know that we fondly appreciate your contributions to our classes. The students were quite thrilled when I explained to them that a personalized subscription for each of them had been paid for in full.

    Students have been able to log in successfully and browse the features of Study.com, and see how well it integrates into our current learning platform. It has made navigation of lessons and assignments seamless.

    The features that this program offers has allowed our students to continue their learning process in the classroom as well as in their homes for our students learning virtually. With these resources, students are not falling behind in their content acquisition and can continously look back at prior lessons.

    It has been a huge benefit in our classroom and again, I thank you.”

    With gratitude,

    Mr. Bishop
