  • More Technology for K!

    Funded Dec 20, 2016

    My students have been enjoying using these chrome books every day. They are so easy to use since they are touch screen and my young students don't need to use a mouse to operate them. These chrome books have been a wonderful addition to our classroom. We use them daily during morning meeting time, our Academy and Blended Learning Time, and during Daily 5 time. My students mainly use them to access the starfall.com to read books, listen to stories, play different phonics games, and also math games too.

    Thank you so much for making this possible for my students. They will be used by many students to come.”

  • Building Fun for K!

    Funded Feb 9, 2017

    It's been so much fun for my young Kindergarten students to have these new blocks in my classroom. All my students go straight to these blocks whenever they get a chance and build variety of items. They proudly show off their creations after successfully building things. With these magnetic Magformers, my students are able to make 3 D shapes that are fun and unique. With the Ultimate Blocks, they make different vehicles and machines, and with the K'Nex, they make cute animals.

    Thank you so much for supporting my Kindergarten classroom so that my students can enjoy working together creatively!”

  • Crayola Twistables for K!

    Funded Nov 30, 2016

    Thank you so much for your generous donation to my classroom! I've been so blessed to have so many supporters. With these Crayola Twistables, my students are able to color neatly without having to peel the papers off the crayons or having to deal with broken crayons. These are easy to use and to hold for my young students who are developing their fine motor skills. The primary crayons are too thick to color neatly, and the thin crayons do not last long. I'm so happy to have enough crayons for my students to use throughout the year. Thank you very much!”

  • Magnetic Whiteboards for K!

    Funded Dec 28, 2016

    The magnetic whiteboards and the magnetic letters have been very useful in my classroom. My students have been practicing letters, words, reviewing first sounds, middle sounds, and ending sounds. These mini boards are so easy to handle, and the lined sides provide perfect practice to print the letters correctly. With the additional 2 magnetic letter kits, I can have my students build their sight words as a small group.

    Thank you so much for your generous donation, providing these wonderful resources to my students! I'm forever grateful!”

  • Kinder Literacy Books for K!

    Funded Sep 16, 2016

    Thank you so much for your generous donation to our classroom! The books you've provided have been amazing resources to read aloud to the kids every week. We talk about different characters, settings, problems and solutions from each story, and we also go over the vocabulary words from the books. There are lots of thinking questions that we share with partners, and we also do writing activities that relate to the stories.

    Before receiving these books, it was hard having to search through YouTube to share the stories with my students. Now I know I have the books I need to teach.

    Thank you for your amazing support! These books will be enjoyed by many more students to come.”

  • Targeting Adventure to Fitness in K!

    Funded Sep 16, 2016

    My kindergarten students have been enjoying different episodes of adventure to fitness every week. It's so educational and engaging while giving my students the needed minutes of exercises. These 30 minute adventure videos keep them active throughout the whole time by running, jumping, hopping, climbing, rowing, throwing, ducking objects and much more. Fun characters like Mr. Marc and Mr. Lazy help teach my students the importance of eating healthy and keeping our bodies moving.

    The ball chairs are very much loved by all students. We only have 2 of them but kids take turns daily sitting there. The kids get to bounce on these ball chairs gently instead of sitting still on the rug during whole group lesson time. Thank you so much for making this possible in my classroom!”

  • Wiggle Party in K!

    Funded Oct 7, 2016

    It's been so great having this new disco ball speaker and the wobble chairs for my Kindergarten students. The disco ball speaker is so much fun having the light on when we dance, and also with its blue tooth connection, I'm able to play the songs from my iPod, walking around the classroom freely. Having the microphone helps me save my voice as a teacher, and my students love speaking into the mic when they are speaking in front of the class, presenting their projects or sharing their thoughts.

    My students take turns sitting on the wobble chairs during our rug time and also during our small group time at the table. They love being able to move around and keep asking to have more turns.

    Thank you so much for making our learning more fun and enjoyable. You're the best!”

  • Supplies for KinderMath

    Funded Aug 2, 2016

    The supplies I've received for the new math program have been excellent tools to organize the materials for my kindergarten students to use daily. These hands-on games are usually played together with a partner as the students are learning to count, sort, compare, and much more. They are having fun while learning!

    The sheet protectors keep all the learning game copies nice and clean for the students to play the games over and over again. All the laminated game pieces are kept in the scrapbook cases by different units.

    Thank you so much for your awesome support and allowing our learning to be fun!”

  • Ukuleles for K!

    Funded Mar 10, 2016

    Thank you so much for providing my classroom with fun instruments. Making music is so much fun whether we can really play the right notes or not. My students loved playing these instruments, strumming the ukuleles while singing some fun songs. We sang the Alphabet songs, Happy Birthday songs, and many nursery rhymes. We were all smiling and happy while taking turns using them.

    These instruments will be used for many more years by hundreds of more students. Thank you so much your support! You rock!”
