Let's Get This Reading Started!
Funded May 6, 2020Thank you once again for your continued support in my classroom. Due to Covid, many of the books were not accessed by the students , so items sat, awaiting the use of this year's students. As we have returned to the classroom, I am excited to offer my students a variety of books from my classroom library.
I am grateful to be able to offer my students a wide variety of novel to read that peak's their interest. Being able to add new books from popular authors to the selection get's students excited about reading. Students are encouraged to read everyday. Now students are selecting their own books instead of the assigned reading to analyze and evaluate the the elements of a text, and discuss the learning with peers with similar interest. Not only are students reading, but they are writing about reading. What a great way to really think deeply about reading.
It is because of folks like you, we have an abundance of texts at our fingertips. Literally, my bookcase is packed and I owe that all to people like you that invests in our future.
Now that we're back in the classroom, we can get back to basics. Reading , writing and discussing great stories. My students are enthusiastic and excited about the upcoming school year. So, let's get this reading started!”
With gratitude,

This classroom project was brought to life by SONIC Drive-In and 2 other donors.Supplies, Supplies, Supplies!
Funded May 27, 2020Thank you once again for your continued support in my classroom. Due to Covid, many of the items were not accessed by the students , so items sat, awaiting the use of this year's students. As we have returned to the classroom, I am excited to offer my students a variety of supplies because of your generous donation.
When I think of everything we have all been through over the past 18 months , I am grateful to be able to tell my students not to be concerned with pencils, markers, paper, books and all of the daily necessities that some students may not have. It is because of you, they have an abundance of supplies at their fingertips. Literally, my storage cabinet is running over and I owe that all to you. When I send a student to "the cabinet" to retrieve supplies or one of the many novels in my class library, they are in awe by the amount of supplies I have...no, we have.
Now that we're back in the classroom, we can get back to basics. Students can create in ways they had not been able to do last year since learning was built around a digital platform. Writing feels like "old times" and students can illustrate their learning and thinking in a variety of ways. So thank you again, and be on the look-out for pics to document our progress.”

Technology Transformation
Funded Aug 4, 2018I just wanted to take the time to thank you again for your generous donation to my class and to education. What a difference having those 8 chrome books in my class for students to use as needed. We've used them for everything from looking up definitions of words to typing a writing piece.
Having theses chrome books have had a tremendous impact on remediating and extending instruction. With your generosity my students can remain in class when they need to work on an additional assignment for remediation or complete a research project as an extension of their learning. It's so much more convenient than sending them to the computer lab which requires supervision. My students find it very comforting to be able to relax in one of my alternative seating area, grab a chrome book and complete their work and I do too.
Please know that we put this technology to use every chance we get and we have you to thank for that.”
