    Funded Jan 29, 2025

    I am overcome with gratitude because of your generous giving hearts. Thank you for helping me to meet the needs of my third grade students to help them learn and grow. They will be so excited. We all appreciate your help and support so very much. Thank you again so much.”

  • Third Grade Cubs Crave Tech for All Classmates!

    Funded Nov 13, 2024

    My students and I are so grateful to have two more chrome books in our classroom. This allows two more students to have access to technology when before this students were having to share or use technology that wasn't fully up to date.

    Your donations are allowing my students to be able to excel their learning daily through a tailored learning path, read books that are not frustrated and are of interest to each of my students, and to play full class games like Kahoot.

    The technology availability this project has allowed for my students has been incredibly helpful.”

  • New Year, New Supplies

    Funded Aug 15, 2024

    Thank you for your generous donations as your thoughtfulness helped to give my students so many new supplies that were needed to start the new school year.

    My students are able to easily and efficiently sharpen their pencils with new electric pencil sharpeners. My students started the year with brand new crayons. My pencil check incentive (fancy erasers, eraser toppers, colorful pencils, etc) basket is filled to the brim and it is helping my students show responsibility for their pencils on a weekly basis.

    Thank you for helping me supply my students and classroom with exciting new supplies to start the year off on the right foot.”

  • Third Graders Can Build Character!

    Funded May 10, 2024

    Thank you for your generosity that allowed for this project to come to life within my third grade classroom. It is because of you that we were able to receive and use the supplies we needed.

    Due to the date that this project was funded, I have not yet had a chance to use the lesson plans and read aloud picture books purchased with this funded project. I plan to use all of the above during this new school year.

    I cannot wait to see how my students respond to the lesson plans and read aloud picture books from this project.

    Thank you again!”

  • Supplies for Super Students

    Funded May 7, 2024

    Thank you for your generosity that allowed for this project to come to life within my third grade classroom. It is because of you that we were able to receive and use the supplies we needed.

    This project allowed for my students to have new chair pouches. They gave my students a chance to have new, more supportive chair pouches. The new pouches also better match the color scheme throughout our classroom and is eye pleasing. This year I am using the clear opening of the pouch to be the name tag for my students to keep their desk top is clear.

    The chair pouches also allow for my students to have an easily accessible place to store library books and their clipboard. This keeps the room traffic down and helps keep books at the finger tips of all my students.

    Thank you again!”

  • Third Grade Bookworms

    Funded Jan 18, 2024

    It is with great gratitude that I share how impactful this project has been in my classroom. My third graders have been absolutely over the moon.

    My students read at home and complete a monthly calendar to track their reading time. When my students complete their calendar and return it on time, they get to choose a book to keep. Maintaining this tradition can be costly so the funding of this project helped tremendously.

    To say my students were excited is a complete understatement. After picking a book, many of my students ran back to their seats to immediately read. It was a beautiful sight. Thank you for allowing this exciting time in my classroom.”

  • Helping My Students While Supporting Teachers!

    Funded Oct 11, 2023

    Thank you from the bottom of my heart for your donations towards my project. Thanks to you I have been able to buy engaging new supplies and resources for my third grade students.

    I have been able to use differentiated resources to meet the needs of my students and not always teach above everyone's heads. This is enjoyable for my students and for me too.

    Thank you for allowing me the opportunity to support my fellow teachers who make these resources and for allowing me to support my students.”

  • 3rd Grade Math Masters

    Funded Aug 2, 2023

    Thank you for your generous donation towards my classroom and my students. Thanks to your generosity my students have gotten their hands on brand new and exciting math games. We have been able to review and practice addition and subtraction facts thanks to our new games. This has also helped my students to work on their partner/ group work skills and communication as well as working on taking turns. I've also modeled encouraging others which my students have started to do with each other. The math games have allowed my students to practice math in a fun and meaningful way, but my students have also been able to practice important social skills while playing these games. Thank you again so very much.”

  • Helping My Students While Supporting Teachers!

    Funded Apr 6, 2023

    Thank you for your generous donations to my classroom and my students. Thanks to your generosity I have been able to purchase resources from Teachers Pay Teachers (TPT). These purchases can become costly for me but supports my fellow teachers who create and share their resources. This gift card allowed me to pick out and purchase resources that have been interesting, exciting, and tailored to student needs. I try to meet my students where they are skill wise and that can be difficult without the necessary resources and supplies. Thank you for allowing me to better help my students with their individual needs. Your kindness doesn't go unnoticed.”

    With gratitude,

    Mrs. Skorupa

Technology is changing education every day, but without enough of it, students are unable to make use of the benefits. This project will help me get closer to having enough technology to allow for my students to work in partners with Chrome Books. Students will have the chance to get their hands on technology more often on a daily basis! Your generosity will help my students get the chance to not only further their learning in subject areas such as math and reading, but also learn to successfully work with a partner or small group. It is my hope that this will not only spark a bigger love for learning in them, but create new friendships along the way too. School is much easier when you feel supported and I want that for my students. Thank you so much for your consideration in helping my third graders become life long learners!
