Funded Jun 14, 2019Thank you for funding our project to get a Chromebook for our classroom. It is so important that my students have access to technology. We have already started using the Chromebook to access online programs to help us with our math and reading. Soon I will be teaching my students how to do research using the Chromebook. They will be choosing topics that interest them and using the Chromebook to find out more about their chosen topics. The use of technology is a great motivator in the classroom. Thank you for having a positive impact on the education of my students.”

Funded May 22, 2019Thank you for funding our classroom project for a charging cart. The charging cart has been so useful in our classroom. Prior to having the charging cart, I was constantly struggling to keep all of our Chromebooks charged and ready for use. There were cords and extension cords all over. It is so nice to have all the Chromebooks charging in one location with the use of just one cord and one outlet. Now that I have a charging cart, I will be able to get and use more Chromebooks in my classroom. My students and I greatly appreciate your generosity!”

Funded Apr 15, 2019Thank you for funding our project for these awesome books. This week my students worked in groups, reading and discussing the Life Cycle books.

I loved listening to the conversations and excitement as they discussed the life cycles and shared what they found to be most interesting. Once again, thank you for having a positive impact on my students' education. My students and I greatly appreciate it!”

Math Centers
Funded May 10, 2019Thank you so much for funding our project. My students really enjoyed working with these great materials during our math centers.

Funded Apr 2, 2019Thank you so much for funding our project. The materials you provided are very useful in helping our classroom run more effectively. The projector mount allows my students to have a clear view of the projected materials and the cords were necessary in order to make the projector usable on the wall mount. The USB port and chargers allow us to charge all of our IPADs at the same time. This insures that all our IPADs are ready to use at all times. The power strip is also very helpful. It allows us to charge all of our Chromebooks at the same time. This makes it so much easier to have the Chromebooks ready for the students to use. Thank you once again for your generosity. My students and I greatly appreciate it!”

Funded Mar 1, 2019Thank you for funding our project for Dragon Slayer Academy books. We have been using these books in our book clubs. My students are totally hooked on these books and can't wait to read the next one to find out what is happening with their favorite characters. It is so rewarding to hear my students talking about books and making connections between the various books in the series. Often times I will hear them continuing their conversations as they leave the reading table. My hope is that they will have a life-long love of reading. Thank you once again for your generous donation. My students and I greatly appreciate it.”

Hands-on Math
Funded Jan 1, 2019Thank you so much for funding our project for hands-on math materials. These materials have been great to use in our math centers. The students love working together during math centers in order to explore and master essential math skills. The ten frames cards and dice have been a great way for my students to increase their understanding of making groups of ten and how they can use this understanding to help them add numbers. The number lines have also been very useful to students who still need a visual to help them with their adding and subtracting. Thank you once again for your generosity. My students and I greatly appreciate it.”

Building Skills
Funded Oct 23, 2018Thank you so much for funding our project for some great math resources. These math playing cards have been a very enjoyable way for my students to practice such skills as addition, subtraction, and place value. During our math centers, my students engage in partner activities that allow them to practice and master various skills. Their favorite game to play with the cards is War. They have so much fun and are learning at the same time. We will continue to use these cards and the other card sets as we move into learning about money and fractions. Thank you once again for making it possible for my students to have an enjoyable learning experience. My students and I greatly appreciate it.”

Student Book Request
Funded May 26, 2018Thank you for funding our project for these wonderful book sets. My students were so excited to open the package and see that the books they had asked for were here in our classroom. We immediately had to set up a schedule for when they could check them out. Of course they all wanted to be first! I love the fact that my students are such avid readers and hope that their love of reading continues throughout their lives.
Your generous donation has brought much joy to our classroom and for that I am very grateful. It is so wonderful that my students get to see that people truly care about them and their education. Once again, thank you for your donation. My students and I greatly appreciate it!”
