  • A Comfy Classroom with Multicultural Play!

    Funded Nov 8, 2023

    Thank you so very much! My students come to school with many different needs which we attempt to meet daily. My goal is to give them a safe and fun learning environment so when they are with me we can focus on being a kid. You have helped with this goal.”

    With gratitude,

    Mrs. Timperley

    This classroom project was brought to life by General Motors & Young Sheldon on CBS and 3 other donors.

  • Sense and Play for Pre-K 2.0

    Funded Nov 7, 2022

    The items we've purchased with this grant has given my students learning opportunities they would not have had otherwise. My students come from an impoverished community where there is not always access to new things or new opportunities. The sensory items have been a great investment for my neurodiverse classroom. The seating purchased has given my students choice and voice in the classroom which helps create a since of community and independence we may have not been able to achieve. Thank you for making it all possible!”

    With gratitude,

    Mrs. Timperley

  • We Play in PreK

    Funded Jul 24, 2022

    I wanted to take a moment to think you for blessing my students. The toys and resources have helped creating moments of learning and inclusion with in my classroom. I have a neurodiverse classroom this year which presents unique needs. I have students with autism who need sensory based breaks though out the day as well as other students who have either never been in school or have poor social skills due to COVID.

    We have been able to have rich conversations about how to set the table, different foods, calm down techniques, and math based conversations. We have been able to use a variety of manipulatives to discuss math and life topics. The items purchased with this money have truly enhanced our classroom this year.

    Thank you again for donating and giving my students these opportunities.”

    Mrs. Timperley

  • Sense and Play for Pre-K!

    Funded Feb 8, 2022

    Thank you for allowing my kiddos this opportunity! I am very ecstatic to have these items for my room. My students will use these items daily. I cannot wait to see everything come together and the students tuck into everything. We could not have made this happen without your donations.”

    With gratitude,

    Mrs. Timperley

To help my students learn amid the pandemic, I could use items to aid my Pre-Kindergarten (Pre-K) students toward self-regulation. Pre-K students learn best through play and interacting with their environment. My classroom is in desperate need of toys and sensory-based objects. The sensory-based objects will be used to create a sensory corner, or "calm down" corner. The pandemic has created a potentially unsafe environment for students to interact with each other. Sharing, taking turns, and other life skills such as cleaning or organizing have not been the primary focus due to health and safety concerns. Access to more of these tools would create more opportunities for my students to play and work on these skills while maintaining safe distancing guidelines. To make an upcoming unit of lessons more engaging, my students would love the use of sensory toys to help the lessons come alive. This year I have four students who have varying sensory needs along with the rest of my class who, like adults, need to take a break at times. We have been attempting to address these needs since the beginning of the school year with varied amounts of success. The items will be the missing piece to better assist the needs of my students. To bring my dream learning activity to life, I’d love to get more toys that aren’t necessarily educational, but aid in creating an environment where learning and peer engagement can take place. Research states that play helps with development of emotional regulation, incorporates physical activity, and provides numerous other cognitive benefits. When my students play, they refine their thresholds for different sensory information. This helps their brains create stronger connections to process and respond to external stimuli. These are vital skills as more children struggle with sensory needs than in the past.
