  • Play-dough Fun for TK/K!

    Funded Oct 20, 2014

    Thank you so much for your generous support in my classroom! The children are very excited to use the Play dough. It's so much fun rolling and stamping on the colorful new dough! We will be using the materials for my kindergarten students to learn the uppercase and lowercase letters, teen numbers, spell sight words, and build CVC words with the cards and the stampers. It will be one of their favorite centers for sure!

    Your support has made one classroom a very happy one for this year and for many more students to come. Thank you very much!”

  • Cooperative Learning Tables for Kinder

    Funded Sep 15, 2014

    I truly thank you so much for funding all the projects in LAUSD. I was one of the lucky ones to have the projects funded. I was so excited to get my table project funded, I was jumping for joy. I ran all the way to the office before school started to let my principal know! My classroom space has opened up so much, and it is so great to have these cooperative tables instead of the old student desks that probably have been there since 1928 when the school was built.

    These tables will be used and appreciated by my current Kindergarten students and many more future ones to come.

    Thank you for your awesome donation!”

  • Magnadoodle For Kinders

    Funded Sep 15, 2014

    It's been so much fun having these Magnadoodle boards for my students. My Transitional Kindergarten and Kindergarten students get to have their own board to write letters, numbers, draw shapes and pictures. We've been reviewing the letters and sounds using the boards daily. When my students finish their assignment, they know they have the board as an option to go to as a center.

    Thank you so much for your generous donation and supporting the LAUSD classrooms. I'm very thankful for the wonderful materials I have received.”

  • Rise & Shine For Kinder

    Funded Dec 6, 2013

    Thank you so much for your generous donation to my classroom. With all the necessary materials, I was able to put the "Rise & Shine" morning work binders together for my Transitional Kindergarten/Kindergarten students. I'm so happy to be able to provide the essential Math and Language Art skills to my students for a daily practice. The heavy duty sheet protectors hold and protect all the necessary papers so that the students can erase and write again daily. The pencil pouches hold the marker, eraser, and counters that students need. My students love doing the morning work, and they've learned so much! These binders will be used by many more students for many more years to come!

    Thank you again from the bottom of my heart!”

  • Reading Chairs for Transitional Kinder/Kinder

    Funded Nov 13, 2013

    Thank you so much for your generous donation to my classroom! My students absolutely love sitting on these comfortable Backpatter's Chairs during their literacy center time. They say it's so cool! These chairs make reading time so much more fun and enjoyable. My students look forward to their turn to sit and read. These chairs are easy to store away and very durable. I think I will be able to share these chairs with many more future Kindergartners to come.

    Thank you again for supporters like you; it makes teaching so much more exciting!”

  • Apple TV for Kinder and Transitional Kinder

    Funded Feb 4, 2014

    On behalf of my students, I want to thank you so much for your continued support in my classroom! With the Apple TV displaying the iPad on our SMART board, my students have so much fun sharing the iPad as a whole group. We are able to take turns practicing to print letters, numbers and play educational games together using the apps. I can easily show an educational song using the youtube video and show how they are doing by showing the classdojo app.

    Apple TV has been a great addition and resource to my students.

    Thank you from the bottom of my heart!”

  • iTunes for Kinder

    Funded Oct 29, 2013

    I want to thank you so much for your generous support to my classroom. It's so great to have the technology added to our daily routine. With the iPod, I'm able to play the music for my students without any interruptions continuously. I don't need to keep searching for a song on Cd's any more, wasting time. It's my 17th year teaching, and I'm just so amazed how easy and fast it is to use an iPod in my classroom. Every teacher should have one!

    I've been able to also use the iPod at my listening center, playing my students' favorite stories as they follow along.

    Thank you so much!”

    Mrs. Park

  • iHear Kinder

    Funded Sep 5, 2013

    Thank you so much for this wonderful gift in my classroom. Your donation to my project has made a huge difference in my teaching life. I used to struggle finding the right songs on Cd's and my students had to wait for the CD player to finally play the songs. My small CD player wasn't even loud enough with the volume to its highest.

    Now with the portable Bose speaker, I'm able to make different play lists on my phone to play the songs continuously. I have good morning songs, number songs, alphabet songs, holiday songs, and many more. It's so clear and loud for my students to enjoy the music. My students no longer have to wait for their teacher to keep changing the Cd's. I even took this speaker with us to our annual caroling at senior citizens retirement homes. It was loud enough for everyone to hear!

    I'm so thankful that this project was funded. Thank you so much for your generosity!”

  • Take Me Home Backpacks

    Funded Mar 25, 2013

    Thank you so much for your donation to my classroom. My students got so excited about receiving these take-home backpacks, and they just loved taking a new pack home every week. Parents commented how much they loved doing these activities together with their children. They have so much fun spending the quality time together and learn about various essential topics at the same time.

    I look forward to using these materials with my future students for many years to come.

    Thank you so much for your generous support!”

  • Listening Center for Kinder

    Funded Oct 9, 2012

    On behalf of my students, I'd like to thank you so much for your donation to my classroom. The listening center came in at a perfect time! My cheap school CD player had been giving me problems; not closing all the way and had to struggle with it many times while my students wait. I was ready to throw it out and your donation couldn't have come at a better time! It just made my day go by so much easier!

    We've been using the CD player and the wireless headsets every day as a listening center for not only listening to different stories, but as well as doing phonics activities and science activities.

    Your donation has made a big difference in our little kindergartners, and it will continue to make a difference in many more kindergartners to come. Thank you very much!”

    With gratitude,

    Mrs. Park
