• Learning and Growing at Home

  Funded May 22, 2020

  We are profoundly grateful for the materials your donation allowed us to purchase. These materials have been utilized to create individual learning centers for students both at in the classroom and at home. In a Pre-K classroom learning takes place when students engage in fun purposeful play, since the pandemic we have had to re-think ways of allowing true and meaningful teaching to occur while also following CDC guidelines and ensuring students' health is a priority. By creating learning centers and individual activity binders for each student we have been able to keep them safe and engaged while keeping the same fun, colorful, and exciting curriculum themes within our centers. Thank you for all you do for classrooms like mine!”

• A Splash of Color Goes a Long Way!

  Funded Apr 24, 2019

  We are thankful for your support in funding some essential materials for our class to bring excitement to our Learning Centers.

  Through the use of the printer, we have been able to speed up the amount of time it takes for the teacher to prepare the activities related to the current class theme and subject. Which in turns allows for students to practice the various skills through a variety of different activities that aim to reach the objective.

  Our students love Monday mornings when I introduce the activities for the week and present to them new colour-full and hands-on activities to complete and use for practice during Center Time and Small Group Instruction.

  Thank You!”

• Yes! We can Learn to Code in Pre-K!

  Funded Apr 5, 2019

  My students' faces were filled with amusement as they first got to experience the Coding Robots. They had never "played" with something similar before so they were thrilled to discover how they could program the Coding Mouse to reach the cheese wedge.

  As they engaged in the coding activities my classroom was filled with conversations happening among each group. They were deeply discussing how to solve problems such as their robot turning left instead of right, or the robot stopping short from reaching the cheese. They were collaborating, using vocabulary, math skills by counting the spots they needed to move, and coding as they programmed the mouse.

  We thank you for supporting our students' learning and the positive impact you have in helping to introduce them to coding and programming at an early age.”
