Life Cycles
Funded Sep 20, 2022Thank you so much for donating to my project for resources on teaching the life cycles of various animals. We've only been in school now for four weeks. The kiddos are still finding their way a little but they are so excited to learn about new things. Our focus this year is hands-on science experiences and making science accessible to students. The live ladybug and live butterfly fly kits will allow the students to see life cycles in action. We will also be able to use the animal figurines of other animals in various stages of their life cycle to compare and contract each animal's stage of life. Thank you!”

Funded Sep 13, 2022Thank you so much for your support on this project! I already shared some of these snacks with my students when we had a fun Friday. You can never have too many snacks when you have 20+ students. They know where I keep the snacks in our classroom and are always asking for one when I go near that cabinet.
It brings me immense joy when I make my students happy and these snacks will continue to do that. I'm excited to have a popcorn party at the end of the school year! Thank you again for your generous donation!”

Keeping Calm
Funded Sep 21, 2022This year I have an amazing group of kiddos who are eager to come to school every day and visit the classroom to think, create, share, grow and of course, read!
Even with some of the hurdles that they face from day to day in this ever increasing virtual world, they are still eager to read and READ books where they can incorporate hands-on activities and/ or crafts and artwork with it. I've added all the materials to our classroom and the kiddos LOVE it!
These materials are so helpful in keeping the kiddos engaged and yearning to do more. They get so bogged down with "school reading" or reading just to take a test, that they lost sight of reading just for fun. Especially the students who already struggle with reading at grade level. With the materials funded by donors like you, I've been able to reach so many of my kiddos that were ready to give up.
I've watched as their eyes light up when I pull out a new book to read and I am beyond amazed at what they create for our activities and artwork. Seeing them so involved wanting MORE, makes my heart smile. Thank you for helping me make it all possible.”

Funded Sep 21, 2022Thank you so much for supporting my kiddos and their health. I am so excited to have this project funded! You have no idea how many times we get caught need8ng something and just don't have it! It can definitely be an overload to your patience, but not with these wonderful personal hygiene bags that each student now has in their cubbies. They absolutely LOVE the chapsticks and the holders. They were tickeled to share with one another which one they got. Thanks to your kind heart, I get to have another year of one less worry to deal with every day. It means more than you could ever know. And in my opinion, I can never have enough cleaning supplies to kill all of the germs that live in a classroom. I hope by having a clean environment to learn in and clean bodies, it'll be one small step for these students to be just that much more successful. Thank you for helping my kiddos to be successful and have the best experience possibly. I couldn't do it without people like you!”

Funded Sep 13, 2022Thank you for making recess an enjoyable time! My students love the new materials that we were able to add to our classroom. I would have to say their favorites new addition is the set of toss amd catch! I couldnt believe how many had never played it before. The students not only play with these but they work together in teams to win. Another popular item is the football. The students aren't allowed to play football as a tackle sport at recess so they use their problem solving strategies and have to create other games to play. They begged me to do Four Square with them but I have no coordination and get out quickly! Theses games and activities are a popular addition to our learning environment. I love that during these inconsistent learning times our kiddos can socialize and remember they're still kids! Thank you so much for allowing us to have these opportunities.”
