  • Fueling Dreams: Help Us Gather Supplies for Our Projects!

    Funded Mar 11, 2024

    I am writing to express my heartfelt gratitude for your generous donation of art supplies. Your support has made a significant impact on our classroom, and I wanted to share just how much it means to our students and our projects.

    With your contribution, we've been able to undertake a variety of creative projects that have truly transformed our learning environment. My students were able to create their own goal posters. These posters will remind them to reach for their goals! The new supplies have allowed our students to explore their artistic talents in ways we hadn't imagined before. It has been so awesome.

    So many of them have been so proud of their projects, especially when they present their finished works to the class is truly priceless. Beyond the art itself, these projects have fostered a sense of teamwork and creativity that extends into other areas of their education. Your support has given them the tools to express themselves and has shown them that their creativity is valued.

    Thank you once again for your generosity and belief in the power of art education. Your contribution has made a real difference in our classroom and in the lives of our students. You are the best!”

  • Transforming Learning Spaces: Help Fund Flexible Seating for My Classroom

    Funded Oct 11, 2023

    I wanted to express my sincere gratitude for the incredible impact the bean bags have had on our middle school classroom. Their presence has truly transformed the learning environment and enriched the overall experience for both students and teachers.

    The introduction of bean bags has turned our once conventional classroom into a dynamic and engaging space. The flexibility they offer has allowed for a variety of seating arrangements, fostering a more collaborative and interactive atmosphere. Students now have the freedom to choose a comfortable spot that suits their learning preferences, encouraging a sense of ownership and autonomy in the classroom.

    Not only have the bean bags enhanced the physical aspect of the classroom, but they have also positively influenced the overall mood and energy levels. The relaxed and inviting atmosphere has contributed to a more positive and open-minded learning environment. Students seem more eager to participate in discussions, and group activities have become more dynamic and inclusive.

    Moreover, the bean bags have proven to be a valuable tool in promoting relaxation and focus during independent study time. Students have found comfort in using them as a cozy space for reading, reflection, or even collaborative group work. The versatility of the bean bags has allowed us to adapt the classroom setup to accommodate various learning styles and activities.

    I want to express my deepest appreciation for your thoughtful contribution to our classroom. The bean bags have truly transformed the learning experience for our students, making it more enjoyable and conducive to personal and academic growth. Your generosity has made a lasting impact on the educational journey of these middle schoolers, and we are immensely grateful for your support.

    Once again, thank you for your kindness and for helping create an environment where learning is not only educational but also a genuinely enjoyable experience.”

  • Empowering Healthy Minds: Fueling Learning Through Composition Notebooks

    Funded Aug 28, 2023

    My students were so excited to get their new composition notebooks. As we navigate through our exciting journey of learning about crucial topics like nutrition, sex education, mental health, and substance abuse, the composition notebooks have been a great tool for students to write down their feelings about the topics.

    They have been documenting their thoughts and feelings about these important subjects. It's been so awesome to see how the students have utilized this tool as a means of self-expression and reflection. The journals have also been a way for students as a space for exploration, self-reflection, and a means to connect with the topics we discuss in class.

    Thank you once again for the notebooks. They have been a great tool.”
