The students are loving these magna-tiles! It's part of our fun Friday routine! Students build with each other in the center rotation. They are building castles, towers, cars and so much more! They are learning to share and take turns especially with the one that has wheels! They love making a car. They are working together to create buildings. Thank you for making my students so excited to work together and build! I will start putting out real pictures of buildings, I will have them try to recreate!”

These mini mice have been amazing for the kids. They make using our computer programs easier! The kids love having their own mouse in their own case. They take care of them and keep them with their headphones. They have learned this tool is important when using our computers. They were so excited to receive these mice and use them right away. They want me to tell you that they are going to take care of them and use them every day. We have reading and math programs that they use on the computers. Thank you again for this donation!”

These books are amazing! The kids are going to love looking at the pictures and learning to read with them. I have a couple students that are ready to read these, and I have a bunch that will make their way and grow. I want all my students to leave my classroom reading, and these books will help that. They are fun and the kids will relate to them wanting to read them on their own. I can use these books one-on-one and also in a small group. Students will be able to take reading tests on these books as well! Thank you so much again!”

The folders are up and running in my classroom. Each student has two folders. There is the "work folder" that stays at school and the "home folder" that travels home and back to school for parent communication. The work folder stays inside their desks and is used when the student's not finish their work. So during another time, they are allowed to finish it. The home folder has prongs that hold correct letter formation, sight word list, number chart, and correct number formation sheets. There is a school and home side that is the way to communicate with my parents.”

Thank you so much for this donation! The students are loving their new headphones. We use them for our online programs that help with reading and math skills. They also use them for state testing and just free play. The kids need good headphones especially when taking a test, and these are working nicely for them. Thank you again for this generous donation. I appreciate you taking the time to donate to my 17 students in my classroom. They also appreciate and are happy there are people that donate like you!”

Thank you so much for this generous donation to my classroom! My 17 students were so excited to get a box in the mail. They were so excited that everything was for them! These items are tools to help my students learn and be safe. Some of my kids are still wearing masks, so having extras so they know they feel comfortable and safe are so important. A new stapler for myself to staple their homework packets and to staple their work to the classroom walls. The erasers go missing often in here, so having extra on hand has helped! Thank you again!”

The students were so excited to get their new headphones. The colors are beautiful and they fit super comfy around their ears. These headphones are used for our online programs. The programs help them became better readers and mathematicians. We also have fun games that they enjoy playing for free time. Thank you for making this generous donation. It will help my students this year and the upcoming year as well. Our old headphones were breaking down fast, so we are so excited to get these and use them!”

Thank you so much for this donation to our classroom. The kids were so excited to see a new bean bag chair in their calming corner. Students will use it to take a break or just relax and read a book. My teacher stool has been so great! Students can now see me when I am reading a book or doing a lesson. I put my teacher manual in my lap and sit on my stool! Since we are distancing, this stool has been a life saver, and the kids think it's fun to see me up high. Thank you for thinking of my me and my students. We appreciate you!”
