  • Staying Safe While Learning Outdoors

    Funded Apr 29, 2024

    Thank you so much for supporting our outdoor learning with these first aid supplies to keep my students safe. My students are young and eager to explore. As they immerse themselves in nature, they may accidentally trip and scrape their knees. Small cuts can easily be addressed with an alcohol wipe and bandage.”

  • A Digital Tablet to Demonstrate Stroke Order for My Students

    Funded Feb 23, 2021

    This thank you is long overdue. I am so sorry I had overlooked it for so long. After the full year of remote learning, I welcomed the break from staring at my computer screen for too many hours each day. Rest assured, the digital tablet was a much appreciated teaching and learning tool I used on a daily basis after it was so generously funded by you. The digital tablet was a much needed replacement for my old which had started acting up around December. I was able to demonstrate the stroke order of Chinese characters as well as work out steps of math and reading. This tablet will serve me and my students for years to come. Thank you to each one of you.”

  • Resources for Remote Learning

    Funded Sep 16, 2020

    Thank you so much to everyone who supported my project for these digital resources. I have been using them to make learning fun and challenging for my kindergarten students each day. I truly miss seeing and teaching them in my classroom in person, but we are trying to be flexible and adaptable during this pandemic. My young students are very skilled in navigating these digital platforms once they have been guided through the steps. I am extremely grateful for all of the patience and support of my students' parents as they assist their children at home. I wish you all a Happy and Healthy New Year. 祝你新的一年身体健康、家庭幸福.”

My students are amazing sponges. The have such a great capacity for learning. I teach kindergarten at an English-Chinese dual language school on the boundary of Chinatown in New York City. Our school is located in an area adjacent to public housing developments and old tenement buildings that have housed generations of new immigrants. The vast majority of my students begin the school year speaking only Chinese or only English. Over the course of the school year, they will become fluent in both languages. We incorporate songs and movement into our daily routine so that my students can learn language organically.
