  • It All Adds Up!

    Funded Jun 6, 2024

    It is my honor and privilege to be a New York City public school teacher. In these times, we all need a little help. Thank you so much for giving me the essential classroom supplies needed in order to effectively teach math to my students.

    In working with students with disabilities, hands-on manipulatives are absolutely essential to make education engaging and fun. I have two students who now request to do math because they love working with the adding cards and the counting box. They are so thrilled with all of the items and have fun while learning something new. It is a win, win and it is thanks all to you. Now, I have so many items to support differentiation and to keep my students engaged in learning. Thank you. Your help and support made this possible. Thank you so much for your kindness!”

  • Boom Cards & TPT = Differentiated Learning

    Funded May 28, 2024

    It is my honor and privilege to be a New York City public school teacher. In these times, we all need a little help. Thank you so much for giving me the digital supplies I need to support my students learning.

    It is like working an extra job just to find, gather, and create resources. By giving us access to resources on TPT and Boom Learning, I have been able to help my students succeed. Students have been loving the fun resources we have found. I was able to buy things from the Boom Learning store and to create some of my own original files, as well as some ready-made activities that helped support my lessons now when working with a new HMH curriculum. TPT has given me so many options to find items to support differentiation and to keep my students engaged in learning. Thank you. Your help and support made this possible. Thank you so much for your kindness!”

  • Toniebox = Screen Free Learning Fun!

    Funded Jun 15, 2023

    Thank you so much for your kindness and generosity as it means the world to me. I love supporting my students by bringing enriching materials into the classroom. The Tonies will help us to build a love of reading and learning literacy for my students. Literacy is a fundamental building block to learning and by using the tonies to help students read stories. My students need concrete visuals and the stories and tonies figures themselves to help literacy come to life and allow them to engage with materials on a higher level.

    My students have absolutely loved playing with the figures. They are able to learn about science concepts and non-fiction texts through the use of these figures. We have created a literacy center all around the tonie figures that students can go to during ELA as well as when they have different breaks and center times. It is so wonderful to see students listening to the stories and following along in the books. Thank you again for making this possible!”

  • Digitally STEM!

    Funded Oct 27, 2022

    Thank you so much for your kindness and generosity as it means the world to me. I love supporting my staff and students by bringing digital STEM materials into the classroom to be able to extend the fantastic things we do with our students during blended learning within the classroom. Students have been able to engage with a variety of materials for cross-curricula content areas to enhance their learning. We use it in the classroom when targeting skills for ELA, Math, Social Studies, Science, and STEAM.

    My students love trying to figure out the tasks and choosing their own adventures is one of their favorite activities to do. It gives them the freedom to make their own decisions, make mistakes and fix them in a safe and nurturing environment. Thank you again!”

    It is my honor and privilege to be a New York City public a school teacher. In these times we all need a little help. Thank you so much for giving me the digital supplies I need to support my students learning. This year has started unlike any other. Digital resources are essential in order to meet the needs of my students. My students went from being remote, to in person to it depended if they were in close contact where they would be learning so having these tools have been amazing.

    It is like working an extra job just to find, gather and create resources. By giving this TPT and Boom Learning gift card, I have been able not only to help my classroom but other teachers in my school by sharing these resources, which in turn supports students across my entire organization. Students have been loving the fun resources we have found. I was able to buy things from the Boom Learning store to create some of my own original files, also some ready made activities that helped support my lessons. With TPT from the digital escape rooms to boom learning decks it gives so many options for us to use that help to keep my students engaged in the learning. Thank you.

  • Socially and Emotionally Supporting Students for Success!

    Funded Mar 28, 2021

    I am so honored that you choose to support my project. These resources have been amazing and I have been able to use them myself as well as share them with other remote educators working on supporting students social and emotional well being remotely. It is so hard for so many of our students to understand why the world is the way it is right now. We are doing our very best to support them in every way possible. My students have truly loved the book "Say Hello and Let It Go!" along with some of the mindfulness and yoga videos. It is so great to be able to share. Thank you so much for your kind and generous donation to my students. You are amazing!”

  • Boom Learning = Access and Accessibility!

    Funded Feb 25, 2021

    This has been such an amazing gift that you have given my school. I am so proud to work with an amazing community of educators. Every now and then we get an amazing opportunity to provide support school wide and this is what this project has allowed me to do. Provide a school wide resource to support not only the teachers but our students in learning skills that are essential during remote, blended and in-person learning. We have just set teachers up with all of their own accounts thank to you help and we have been enrolling students all week. Our first set of students have been using Boom Learning and are so excited to get this resource back. My staff is even more happy that they will have the power to create valuable resources geared towards IEP goals and needs for students. This has done so much more than you could ever realize. This has given a whole school community hope. Hope that tomorrow will be better and that there are people who truly care about supporting students and teachers. I will be providing support and training to all staff members this month and next month to help all of our new and returning teachers to boom learning but the entire staff is overjoyed thanks to you! I cannot wait to see all the amazing things our students will be learning over the next month and I cannot wait to share it here!”

Hello. My name is Ms. Amato. I am a teacher in Staten Island, New York. I work with Students With Autism and Multiple Disabilities in a District 75 Program. I work with over 120 students and each one of them is unique! My students are very special. Having them learn is most important above anything else. My students are loving, caring and smart. They just need additional supports and a multi-sensory learning experience in order to tap their true learning potential. As an educator I spend so much money on my classroom but I am not always able to get them everything they need but it does not mean they should not have it. My students deserve the best, so I come here for help! They all need and deserve your help so if you can donate, you will be enriching the lives of my students. 100% of my students have free lunch and many of them miss out on activities their non-disabled peers have. Thank you for your time.
