• Classroom Basics

  Funded Mar 27, 2018

  Thank you so much for your donation to our project! I know colored paper seems like a silly thing to be considered as a necessity but I can not tell you how useful it is in our classroom. I love being able to hand out project directions or. important information on bright paper. This not only makes it easier to find in backpack full of paper but it also serves as a reminder that this is important that's why it is bright!

  Again, words can not express how grateful I am to have all of these supplies handy in the classroom. It really does make a world of difference!”

• Organization Is A Novel Idea

  Funded Mar 27, 2018

  Thank you so much for the donation to our book organization project! This is normally when I would tell you how excited the students were to receive the material but I'm pretty sure that I was the excited one! My co-teacher and I had so much fun getting our classroom library in order. Separating all of our books and labeling them by genres with the dot stickers not only gave us immense joy but it also made our library come to life! It is so easy for our students to identify books that might interest them now as we are able to keep things organized!”

• Test Prep and Beyond!

  Funded Oct 31, 2017

  Thank you so much for donating to our Test Prep and Beyond project! I can not start to tell you how much it meant for my students to have access to this program. In using this test prep program my students have been able to see and experience first hand what the SAT looks like in regards to reading comprehension. This program has done worlds to better prepare my students for the SAT that they are about to take.

  Again, thank you so much for your donation to our project. Donors like you truly make a difference!”

• Breakfast of Champions for Champions

  Funded Dec 29, 2017

  Thank you so very much for donating to our Breakfast of Champions project! Needless to say once we rolled out this project snack time began to happen at all times of the day. Due to your amazing donations students were able to have snacks throughout the day and not just during breakfast. It is amazing how much a mid-day snack can really help someone to focus in class! These snack were also key after our day ended. Many student would stay to work on missing assignments or to get more help and having a snack helped them to stay just a bit longer!”

• For The Love of Reading Part 2

  Funded Jan 26, 2018

  A simple "thank you" does not even seem like enough to express how grateful I am for you contributing to this project! I can not tell you how excited my students were when they realized that we were getting another load of books for the classroom library! It was so much fun to watch them open up the boxes and take out the books to place on the shelves! Twice a month our students spend their English periods focused on reading and due to your amazing donations our DEAR reading days are even more enjoyable now!”

• For The Love Of Reading

  Funded Nov 8, 2017

  Thank you so much for donating to our For The Love Of Reading project. It has been so amazing having these books in the classroom! By keeping a fresh supply of books in the classroom I am always ready to hand one over when a student is looking for something new to read. There is nothing that makes my day like a student finding a book that they can not put dow, even more so if it makes them want to read another book. Due to your amazing donations I am able to help more students fall in love with reading!”

• Environmental Explorers

  Funded Jul 17, 2017

  Thank you so much for donating to our Environmental Explores project! As a teacher there is nothing more exciting then getting to share my love of nature with my students. Through this project we were able to not only discuss environmental concepts but also get a little creative. To start our school year off right I had my students find quotes that resonated with them and that could serve as a reminder of what we wanted to achieve this school year. Using the markers we received with this project my students were really able to make their reminders come to life!

  Thank you again for your amazing generosity!”

• Capturing Science Learners With Cartoons

  Funded Sep 18, 2017

  Thank you so incredibly much for donating to our project! It was so much fun getting to share the books with my students as they were able to see scientific concepts in completely different ways! The visuals in the science resource books are amazing and incredible engaging for all of my students. Its incredible when you can find something as a teacher that not only engages your students but also helps them to further their understanding of concepts.

  Thank you again for helping my classroom to achieve great things!”

• Yoga and Mindfulness in the Classroom

  Funded Apr 14, 2017

  I honestly do not even know where to begin. This is a project that truly transformed not only my teaching but also myself. When I first started this program I was incredibly skeptical, but little did I know just how much it would impact my life. Not only did participating in this program help with my own mental health as an educator but it also directly impacted my students in am amazingly positive way. Though participating in this program I was able to bring mindfulness into my classroom and teach my students skills that will continue to help them for years to come.”

• Wild About Wildlife

  Funded Mar 3, 2017

  I can not even begin to thank you enough for helping to fun this project. With your amazing donation I am no longer in the way when using the projector in the classroom, the presentation clicker with laser pointer has been a life saver! Walking around the rooming and being able to change slides is a game changer!

  We are so excited to start watching the new Planet Earth series. I can only imagine how captivated my students are going to be when we watch this series.

  Again, I can not even begin to thank you enough for your kind donations!”
