  • Fostering a Welcoming and Inclusive Classroom Environment

    Funded Mar 24, 2025

    Thank You for Supporting Our Classroom!

    I can't express enough gratitude for your generosity in helping bring these resources to our classroom. Your support has made such a difference in how my students learn, engage, and feel in our space!

    Many of our donors use technology and resources in their daily lives, but seeing how these tools impact students in a classroom setting is truly special. The calculators have been a game-changer, allowing my students to focus on problem-solving and critical thinking rather than getting stuck on basic calculations. It has given them the confidence to take on more challenging math concepts without frustration.

    One of the most exciting additions has been the rug and fairy lights. These small touches have transformed our classroom into a warm and inviting space where students feel comfortable and ready to learn. The rug has quickly become a favorite spot for group discussions and collaborative activities, making learning feel more interactive and engaging. The fairy lights have created a calming atmosphere, helping students feel relaxed and focused, especially those who experience anxiety in a traditional classroom setting.

    I've seen particular students light up—literally and figuratively—because of these changes. One student, who often found math intimidating, now eagerly participates in class thanks to the support of the calculators. Another, who struggles with focus, has found comfort in the new environment and is more engaged than ever. These resources aren't just supplies; they are tools that foster confidence, curiosity, and a love for learning.

    Thank you for believing in my students and helping create a space where they feel valued and excited to learn every day. Your generosity has made a lasting impact!”

    With gratitude,

    Ms. Strittmatter

  • Calculator’s for the Kiddos

    Funded Dec 20, 2024

    We want to extend our deepest gratitude for your generous donation of calculators and lights. Your support has made a significant impact on our students' learning experience, and we are thrilled to share how these tools are making a difference.

    Many of our students are used to technology in their daily lives, but having access to it in the classroom transforms their learning in ways they hadn't imagined. The calculators you provided have become essential for building confidence in math, allowing students to explore complex problems with greater understanding and accuracy. The lights have also created a brighter, more engaging environment, making our classroom a place where students feel motivated and ready to learn.

    One of the most exciting aspects for our students has been the ability to work through math problems more efficiently and independently. Several students who previously struggled with calculations have found new confidence in their abilities, knowing they have the right tools to support their learning.

    In particular, one of our students, who had always been intimidated by math, has started participating more in class. With the calculator as a support, they now focus on problem-solving rather than worrying about simple mistakes. The difference in their engagement and enthusiasm has been incredible to witness.

    Your generosity has not only provided tools but has also fostered a love for learning that will stay with our students for years to come. Thank you for believing in them and for making a real difference in their education.”

    With gratitude,

    Ms. Strittmatter
