    I more than grateful for funding this project. My students will enjoy the new outfits and the girls will be excited to get new hair accessories. The students have a few school events coming and the t-shirts will help them participate and feel part of the community. These items will not only provide clothing but also a boost to their self-confidence.”

  • Digital Audio Library

    Funded Jan 13, 2025

    My fourth-grade students have been absolutely captivated by the Yoto player and accessories since we received them! They ask daily if they can use it, and it's become a highlight of our classroom activities.

    This project aimed to expand our classroom audiobook collection, giving students more opportunities for reading and listening. Whether they follow along in the physical book or simply enjoy listening, the Yoto players have been a huge hit.

    The included photos show how much my students enjoy the diverse card options. They're particularly fond of the Solar System, Flags of the World, In the Wild, and 3, 2, 1 Beatbox cards, which offer entertainment and educational value.

    What I appreciate most about the Yoto players is their ability to engage even my most reluctant readers. They offer a new avenue into stories, making literature accessible to all learners. The Yoto player has become a popular destination on our audio bookshelf, drawing in students who might not otherwise engage with reading.

    Thank you so much for this incredible gift and for helping me make reading accessible to all my students!”

    With gratitude,

    Mrs. Zelasco

  • Period? No Questions!

    Funded Jan 24, 2025

    I want to express my heartfelt gratitude for your incredible support. Thanks to your generosity, my students now have everything they need for personal care easily accessible. They no longer have to feel hesitant or embarrassed about asking for supplies; they can confidently go to the designated area and help themselves to what they require. Each girl can select the specific pads or tampons that best suit her preferences and needs.

    I recently had a meaningful conversation with the girls, guiding them on where to find these essential items. As I shared this information, I could see the relief wash over their faces, as if a heavy weight had been lifted off their shoulders. Witnessing their gratitude and ease truly warmed my heart. Knowing that I can support them during such a vital stage in their lives brings me immense joy. Being able to offer them this relief amidst their growing pains is something I cherish deeply.”

    With gratitude,

    Mrs. Zelasco

The materials and supplies that I am requesting for my students will keep them engaged throughout the year. I know exactly when everything will be used. The calendar and schedule charts will be placed up front and use every day to keep us all focus. The plastic tablecloths will help transform our classroom into a restaurant for our delicious book tasting, or a Writer's Cafe. We will also have a Racing Unit to integrate STEM into our learning. The canvas and paint will be used to create masterpieces as we also integrate art into our learning. The 152 crayon collection will be used daily and will provide my students with new color vocabulary. The hats will complete my students' outfits to get them excited about our work. The donations to this project will help the students to learn in an engaging way, they will love to learn and work at the same time. You will provide a year of transformations and engaging learning!
