Getting Our Hands Dirty in Math
Funded Aug 27, 2022I can't tell you how helpful these manipulatives have been in our class! There are so many students for whom a manipulative makes all the difference to their understanding. It has been especially helpful to have these tools at our disposal at this time because so many of our students continue to struggle with the repercussions of Covid-19 as it relates to their education. Providing multiple access points to learning for students is vital and these manipulatives make a world of difference.
The students look forward to using these amazing magnetic math manipulatives when we work in small groups and whole groups. You did a wonderful thing!”

Funded Sep 21, 2022I cannot thank you enough for helping fund our wobble stool project! My students absolutely love the Wobble Chairs. To make sure everyone gets a turn, they are set up at our Reading Counts station in our classroom. Setting the chairs up at that station has really encouraged the students to stay focused! Being able to watch the students on the wobble chairs, has allowed me to see which students would really benefit from having a wobble chair.
When I got the call over my Walkie-Talkie, that I had boxes addressed to me at the front office, the students could hardly contain themselves! I opened and quickly assembled the chairs, which took no time at all!
Know that you have made a difference in my students' education. You have offered a solution for all students who would benefit from more movement during the day. My students and I are forever grateful for your generosity!”

Well Begun Is Half Done
Funded Aug 9, 2022Thank you so much for your donation! This year it has been so much easier to keep all of our materials organized. The students are able to keep all their materials in their table caddy. Scissors, pencils, and dry-erase markers are all at their fingertips! Knowing we have limited storage in the hut, the set of drawers has been a huge help. We keep our math manipulatives and extra supplies in the drawers. It is such a huge help! My students have used the tub of crayons every day. Whether it's to borrow a color, or they lost their crayons, my students are always ready to complete their work. It is one more thing that my students don't have to worry about while working during the day. Thank you for thinking of my students and for helping my class for years to come.”

Funded May 5, 2020Thank you so much for helping us get a rolling whiteboard. Having to teach new concepts in math and literacy without having a board to write on so the students could see examples was extremely hard. My students were able to easily learn new math concepts through examples we could do together.
The quarantine has not been easy for anyone. Figuring out how to teach and learn through technology is a new experience for everyone. We are learning to make adjustments and adapt to the times. I am hopeful when it is safe, we will be able to see our students once again.”

Funded May 16, 2020Thank you so much for helping my students get ecosystems and diamond art. Parents have sent me pictures of what there students have been doing over summer break. Their ecosystems are blooming! Students have also decorated wallets, iPads and other technology with their diamond art activities.
I know the quarantine and transitioning to summer have been difficult for some of the students. I could not imagine having to social distance at such a young age. Having these activities has kept them busy and their mind off things for a while. Thank you for supporting my classroom and students!”

Funded May 5, 2020Thank you for helping us learn through hands-on activities. My students LOVED dissecting the owl pellets. I was able to pack each of my students an envelope, containing gloves, sticks, and owl pellets in a ziplock bag. We even had enough owl pellets to let their family members participate in the fun! My students found many of the owl pellets had 2 skulls inside of them. Students found animal skeletons from birds, rodents, shrews, and mice inside the owl pellet. Some families were asking me where they could buy more. They didn't know dissecting the pellets could be so interesting. Thank you for making this activity happen. It was so fun to watch their faces as they were learning!”
