  • The Better to Hear You With My Dear

    Funded Nov 21, 2021

    Your generous donation helped to enhance student learning within my classroom. My students and I are so grateful for your willingness to extend your help and kindness to create a classroom where all students are able to gain accessibility to audio-visual materials.

    Our school is home to many MLL learners and these students need access to learning and resources in various ways Creating and accessing audio helps our students bridge the gap between native speakers and create onramps that make learning more beneficial.

    Our gratitude for your generosity is endless. Thank you for making learning accessible, equitable, and inclusive through the use of audio materials.”

  • Virtual Learning for “Two”

    Funded Nov 19, 2020

    Your generosity has impacted my students greatly. At any time my students would have to switch from in-person to virtual learning. This required me to change the way that I would teach my lessons. Technology supports are an integral part of that setup. Through the donations I received, I was able to use double monitors to help engage and teach my students more effectively. The full desk mat allowed me to organize my technology on my desk in a more effective way. The vision helped to keep my spine in alignment as I was now to work at a desk 10-12 hours a day. Without these supports, I would have had a more difficult time working a full schedule of virtual learning.”

  • Set the Stage to Engage

    Funded Nov 27, 2018

    There are so many elements that can be used to create an engaging classroom. Teachers are the key factor to making lessons engaging but sometimes the addition of materials help to take lessons to the next level. In my classroom project based learning was used to enhance lessons and student understanding. Students used paints, crayons, paper, pocket charts, and various other materials to help the make next level projects. These materials helped me to set the stage to engage students daily. Thank you for your willingness to donate to our learning experience.”

  • Help Our Fourth Grade Become a Cut Above the Rest

    Funded Jan 29, 2019

    Thank you so much for generously donating toward our project. My students were in dire need of rulers, scissors, and glue sticks to complete various activities in the classroom. We did not have a class set of these items so it made it very difficult to complete activities together. Every day we do interactive notebook pages that require these three components. Students were more engaged because they had their own resources to use and did not have to share and wait for others to complete it.

    When my students first opened the packages they were so excited to see the colorful scissors and the large box of glue. They were picking the color that they wanted to use of the scissors and they were wanting to take the glue sticks to their desk so that they were ready to use on their next assignment.

    These resources will be used daily for many different activities. Now that each student has a resource to use on their own, we are able to incorporate more activities with these resources into our daily lessons.”

    Mrs. Hill

  • Add a Streak of Color to Fourth Grade

    Funded Jan 29, 2019

    The addition of a color printer, lamination, electric stapler, and rulers were a wonderful addition to our classroom. It allowed my students to use materials to make high quality books that they were proud to produce and share. Literacy is the classroom is presented in many different modes. The opportunity for students to write and publish books that contain their personal writers voice is very important and relevant to literacy growth. Thank you for the opportunity to provide materials to students to create something great.”

    With gratitude,

    Mrs. Hill

The addition of these resources within our classroom will allow students to show their creativity and imagination to help learning come to life. Project-based learning has been the highlight of each unit that my students work through each academic year. When students are challenged to create projects that are reflective of the standards they are learning, they enter a whole new world of understanding. Allowing students to engage and create projects that mirror what they are learning requires various materials to support each student's individual creativity. These materials will help to support dual learning through student-created audio and visual elements. Many times students need to record their presentations or responses to learning. Having a tripod would allow for hands-free recording. The microphone will be helpful in amplifying the voices of the students so that they can be clearly heard. Dry Erase clipboards will allow the students to have a place to keep papers and to jot dot thoughts when we are in the planning phases of our projects. Pocket Charts and hooks will hold our flashcards, sentence strips, and diagrams as we create. Once a project is designed, we can begin using construction paper, markers, scissors, crayons, and paint. These creative mediums help us to construct such projects as volcanoes, vision boards, timelines, and to accent other visual works. What begins as construction paper, crayons, and paint later becomes a creation of grandeur that illustrates not only a students creativity, but also their understanding. Please join me in gifting my fourth-grade class the opportunity to learn and create audio and visual projects that will raise their learning to new heights.
