  • Magnetic Building Fun!

    Funded Feb 5, 2025

    Thank you so much for your incredibly generous donation! I'm thrilled to finally introduce these magnetic cubes to my STEM students.

    We do a lot of hands-on engineering in our classroom, and I'm always on the lookout for new tools that spark creativity and innovation. These magnetic cubes are absolutely perfect for encouraging imaginative building and design!

    My students are over the moon with excitement! They're exploring new ways to bring their ideas to life, and it's truly inspiring to see their creativity flourish.

    I'm deeply grateful for your support—it means the world to us. Thank you again for your kindness and generosity!”

  • Creative Brain Flakes!

    Funded Sep 19, 2024

    Thank you so much for your very generous donation and helping make engineering more fun and exciting in my STEM classroom!

    The Brain Flakes Kits have been such a wonderful addition to my class. I love that the brain flakes came in a large plastic container with a lid so easy storage. I didn't have to go out and purchase my own plastic bins, which is a huge deal.

    My students absolutely love using the brain flakes because it allows them to be so creative and build pretty much anything they want. A few students use the booklet with samples and step-by-step instructions, but many students let their imaginations take over.

    I notice that the more my students use the brain flakes, the more they enjoy using them and even request them when they are not out.

    Thank you so much for giving my students the opportunity to make engineering so much fun!”

  • Winter Wonderland Hot Cocoa and Snacks!

    Funded Apr 22, 2024

    Thank you so much for your very generous donation!

    When I heard that the "Winter Wonderland Hot Cocoa and Snacks" project was funded, I literally jumped for joy! Even though the hot cocoa and snacks didn't come during the winter months, it seems perfect that we have these delicious treats during Teacher Appreciation Week!

    Teachers and staff, as well as students will be able to enjoy all of the snacks and drinks. Who doesn't love hot cocoa, coffee, or tea? Everyone will be so excited!!!

    Thank you once again for your kindness and generosity! I truly appreciate it!”

  • Technology to the Rescue 2!

    Funded Dec 21, 2023

    Thank you so much for your very generous donation! My students and I are very grateful for the opportunity to have another iPad added to our STEM classroom.

    With the iPad, I am able to allow additional students access to coding apps that I wouldn't otherwise have been able to do.

    The iPad comes in so handy because each week, we are getting additional students in the school and since I do not have a complete set, each iPad really counts.

    Thank you for giving us the chance and caring about our classroom!

    We really appreciate it!”

  • Organization, Please!

    Funded Dec 17, 2023

    Thank you so much for your very generous donation! I really appreciate your kindness and am so grateful to you!

    The plastic bins and three-tiered stand are already put to good use in my STEM classroom! I had been waiting for a way to organize all of my STEM materials, like the marble run pieces as well as smaller robots with all of the materials. Now, thanks to your generous donation, I was able to find a home for all of these materials and everything looks so organized!

    Thank you so much for helping organize my classroom and create a welcoming classroom environment!”

  • Marble Run Engineering, Too!

    Funded Nov 22, 2023

    Thank you so much for your very generous donation! With your donation, my STEM students are able to use these awesome marble run kits. They really enjoy being able to work together to create and build their very own marble runs.

    Each marble run kit comes with lots and lots of very colorful Lego-style pieces that are so much fun to build with. You can hear the conversations among students about how to engineer their marble runs. It's pretty amazing!

    Thank you so much for giving us this opportunity! We will enjoy countless hours with these marble run engineering kits. Thank you!”

  • Classroom Basics

    Funded Nov 14, 2023

    Thank you so much for your very generous donation! I really appreciate your kindness and generosity!

    With the ink for my printer, I am able to print out all of the flyers I create for the school. The pictures are just some examples of the types of posters and flyers I do and post for the school. Each month, there is also a school calendar with lots of images and it must be printed out. If I need activities with the students, now I am able to use my printer for the things I really need.

    Thank you for giving me this opportunity! I really appreciate it!”

  • Codey Robot Fun!

    Funded Nov 13, 2023

    Thank you so much for your very generous donation! My STEM students and I really appreciate all of your help and support!

    The Codey Rocky Robots are so much fun! My students were so excited to discover how to code with them and used to app to 'drive' the robots around at first. They are going to create mazes and obstacle courses for these robots and will be able to do more complex coding very soon.

    My students really love the sound effects and the fact that they can code the facial expressions on the robots.

    The excitement is through the roof and I am so grateful to you! Thank you so much!!!!”

  • Engineering Excitement!

    Funded Sep 20, 2023

    Thank you so much for your very generous donation!

    Because of your generosity, my STEM students are able to work together and create the most amazing discovering with the K'Nex pieces. From roller coasters to swing sets to bridges, they can make anything they want! I challenge my students with different projects and they love engineering to complete the projects.

    Seeing the level of creativity improve day-by-day is huge! I am so grateful to be able to provide these resources for STEM education and I am so thankful to you for giving us this opportunity!”

I am a STEM teacher at P.S. 123Q in South Ozone Park, New York, a Title 1 school. I strive to make Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math exciting, engaging, and fun using a hands-on approach. I teach Kindergarten through fifth grade and challenge my students to solve real world problems in creative ways. Recently, I have joined the CS4All Cohort (Computer Science Education) and will begin teaching code using programs such as Scratch. I am so excited and have so many amazing computer science lessons planned for each grade.
