  • The "Apple" of My Eye

    Funded Aug 12, 2020

    Thank you so much for supporting our classroom. This iPad and Apple pencil have been so useful in creating digital materials for my students. I am able to test out assignments and activities on this device, allowing me to troubleshoot and adjust my curriculum for my students who also use an iPad for their digital learning.

    This resource has been great for assisting my students by creating resources in the learning platform they are using at home, not the laptop that I traditionally used. Thank you for your generosity and continued support to my students.”

  • New Seating Options for My Room

    Funded May 5, 2020

    This flexible seating is a GAME CHANGER. The bouncy bands and support chairs have been a great addition to my flexible seating classroom.

    My students need to get their fidgets out and bouncy bands are just what they need. These bands allow for movement so my students can concentrate and focus on their learning tasks.

    The support chairs are great and my students love to use them around my classroom to work on their laptops or writing in their notebooks. It's just the right size for their growing bodies and sturdy enough to last a few rounds of students.

    Thank you again for supporting my classroom.”

  • Colorful Copies for 5th Grade

    Funded Dec 11, 2019

    The ink for my printer is so greatly appreciated. Having the ability to print items in color has made a huge impact on my teaching. I am able to give my students worksheets with scaffolded information for my special education students. Additionally, as my students publish their work digitally, I am able to print their work in color, allowing their words and graphics to pop off the page. Your generosity towards myself and my students is noticed and we thank you for it. Thank you again for supporting my classroom and my students!”

  • Books Are Bae

    Funded Aug 13, 2019

    Thank you for your generous donation to our classroom. Our classroom now has over 500 books, in a wide variety of genres, levels, and authors. The books we received from your donation helped fill in gaps within our library, providing my students with high-interest books within the levels that they need. Many of these books have not stayed on my book shelves - they have quickly become classroom favorites. Thank you for supporting my classroom and thank you for helping foster a love of literacy and reading in my students.”

  • Colorful Caddies to Organize Our Day!

    Funded May 30, 2019

    Thank you so much for my bright, beautiful caddies! They are transformed management in my room by easily allowing me to collect and distribute supplies to my students. The students have a neat and organized place to store their supplies as well.

    Additionally, I have used these caddies to label each table with a number. This has allowed me to easily call on groups of students to line up, pack up, etc.

    And, finally, they have added to the fun decor in my classroom. They are bright and vibrant and I have received so many compliments from the colleagues on how functional and beautiful they are.”

  • Footloose! Bouncy Bands for Fidgety Feet

    Funded Jan 1, 2019

    These bouncy bands have really helped keep my students "moving" while they are working independently at their seats. They are super sturdy and no one has snapped one yet. We are thankful for your support of our classroom and all of the unique learners within it.

    Everyone learns in different ways and bouncy bands allow my "movers and shakers" to be focused while getting their assignments done. I find myself using them too - they are not just for the kids! Your commitment to our flexible seating classroom is great appreciated!”

  • Healthy Hygiene Habits

    Funded Apr 8, 2019

    We are so thankful for these deodorants for our students! Many of our upper elementary students do not have these items available to them at home and these products will be utilized to help with hygiene practices at both home and school.

    We used some of our student council students to prepare care packages using both the boys' and girls' deodorants to send home to our 4th grade families. With the warmer weather months approaching, many students will be thankful to have these products available for them to use.”

  • Setting The Stage To Engage With Breakout EDU

    Funded Mar 27, 2018

    Thank you so much for our Breakout EDU kit! Since its arrival, my students have loved doing team building, breakout activities. They have sparked a huge interest in both math and social studies activities they have practiced using the Breakout materials. I have noticed an increased respect for the student among one another through the process of working together to complete our class "escape room" activities. This resource is so valued in my classroom - thank you again for supporting me and my students!”

  • Bounce with Us - Flexible Seating!

    Funded Oct 19, 2018

    Thank you so much for your generous donations! These flexible seating options have been such a hit with my kiddos! They have allowed for so many different seating opportunities and definitely help my students to focus better on our daily lessons.

    Many of my students made personal requests for the flexible seating because, let's be honest, they know how they learn the very best. The stretchy bands have been welcomed by many, especially since the ones from September were starting to show some serious wear and tear. The wobble seats have also been comfy additions to both student seats and floor seating too!

    Thank you again for supporting our classroom!”

  • Readers Gotta Read!

    Funded Apr 20, 2018

    Thank you so much for these awesome books! Since their arrival, I have not been able to keep them on of our library's shelves. They have sparked a huge interest in reading and have allowed my students to learn about different types of literature in both fiction and nonfiction genres. These books have exposed my students to an entirely new genres of reading and have allowed them to practice their nonfiction and fiction reading skills in age-appropriate, high-interest texts. These resources are so valued in my classroom - thank you again for supporting me and my students!”
