  • A Little Help From Our Friends

    Funded Jan 21, 2024

    I am writing to express our sincere gratitude for your generous donation towards our Teacher Pay Teacher gift card fund.

    Your contribution has made a significant impact on our my ability to access valuable resources, materials, and tools that enhance the learning experience for our students. Because of your kindness, I can now explore a wider range of educational resources, allowing them to create even more engaging and effective lesson plans.

    Teachers play a vital role in shaping the future, and with your support, they are better equipped to inspire and educate the next generation. Your commitment to supporting education and empowering teachers truly makes a difference, and we are incredibly grateful for your partnership.

    Thank you once again for your generosity and for believing in the importance of education. We look forward to sharing with you the positive outcomes that result from your donation, and we hope to continue this partnership in the future.”

  • Ready for Reading Groups

    Funded Nov 28, 2023

    I am writing to express my heartfelt gratitude for the generous donation of reading supplies to my classroom. The impact of your contribution has been profound, and I want to share with you how these resources have made a tangible difference in the lives of my students.

    From the moment we unpacked the boxes, there was a palpable sense of excitement among the students. The new books and other reading materials have not only enriched our classroom environment but have also sparked a renewed enthusiasm for learning.

    Your donation has also had a positive impact on our classroom community. It has allowed us to create a more inclusive and welcoming environment where every student feels valued and inspired to learn. The sense of ownership and pride the students feel in our classroom library is a direct result of your generosity.

    Thank you for believing in the power of education and for supporting our classroom. Your kindness has made a lasting impression, and I am grateful for the opportunity to share the positive outcomes with you. Please know that you have made a meaningful difference in the lives of these young learners.

    With sincere thanks and best wishes,”

  • Bringing Color to the Classroom

    Funded May 9, 2023

    Thank you so much for donating to my project. I am always in awe of the willing nature of family and friends. Teaching really takes a village and I have such a strong and powerful village.

    All of your donations went to bringing color to my classroom. Using my new color printer allows me to print out vibrant material for my students and to decorate my classroom. I am able to show students vivid pictures of different resources so they can make connections and observations. Having the ability to print right from the classroom make teaching easier.

    Thank again for all your support!”

    Ms. Tam

  • Need a Little Help From Our Friends

    Funded Dec 7, 2022

    Thank you so much for helping me get those Teacher Pay Teacher gift cards. They were a life saver because I was able to just grab some quick, pre-made activities for the kids.

    I am proud to say that I have learned so much this year. I think being thrown in a world of computers and Google has forced me to expand my expertise in technology. I have learned to code! All of those fun lessons you did with the kids finally paid off for this teacher! I learned to make pixel art in Google docs.

    However, even with all this new knowledge, time is something this teacher never has enough of. I never have enough time to make all the fun and exciting slides my kids enjoy. Your gift really helped me this year! Thank you so much again!!!!”

  • Graphic Novels!

    Funded Nov 28, 2022

    Thank, thank, thank you so much for the graphic novels! They are a huge hit! My students love getting lost in their stories. I have always believed that books can transport children to magical worlds, historical events, and meet interesting people. I love hearing how excited they get when they read. Thank you for helping support my students' love of reading. Without your help and generosity, teachers would not be able to provide all these wonderful books and supplies. I appreciate all your help!”

  • Teacher Pay Teachers Gift Card

    Funded May 9, 2022

    Thank you so much for helping my students engaging work and projects through the teacher -pay- teacher website. Your donation went towards gift cards that allowed my to purchase many awesome, teacher-made assignments.

    Teaching is so rewarding, but it is also so time consuming. My classroom is made up of so many different learning styles and characteristics. When I give an assignment it is not just 'one and done'. Teacher -Pay- Teacher gift cards allow me to find similar work that will engage ALL my students!”

  • TPT Resources Needed

    Funded Dec 30, 2021

    Thank you so much for donating to our project. Many of the assignments that we were able to purchase through Teacher Pay Teacher helped with my student's learning. They were able do a lot of fun activities and be creative. My students worked on projects that include fractions, multiplication, division, language art skills, ancient civilizations, citizenship, and science.

    I love saving time from all my planning by purchasing teacher-made activities. I also love how my purchases support other teachers!

    Thank you again!”

  • TPT Funds Needed

    Funded Sep 22, 2021

    Thank you so much for donating to my classroom project. My students have really enjoyed all of the extension activities and assignments I have been able to acquire through Teacher-Pay-Teacher. Finding differentiated work for all my students on all their different levels is so important. Teacher-Pay-Teacher offers rich and rigorous lessons that all my children in my class can benefit from. I love that all of my purchases from the website are created by teachers and help support them in return. Thank you again!”

  • Help me Project the World of Math!

    Funded Apr 5, 2018

    My project has been funded, and my students and I are all tremendously excited! With your support, we will be able to turn my class into a more engaging place, where the students will be able to learn in a classroom that's on par with the increasingly technological world around them instead of just using their text books. I am confident that this will increase interest, and thus understanding.

    With the use of a projector my students will benefit by watching Power Point presentations related to the content that I teach. The lectures, group discussions, and small group instruction can be greatly enhanced by the use of such technology. The use of both visual and audio tools is an absolute necessity to engage learning. This projector will enrich their learning experience. Together we would be able to watch videos together, take online quizzes, or view real-time information on topics we discuss. The visual communication delivered to the students is more effective because it captures their attention and harbors their curiosity in learning.

    This funding has come right on time. Looking ahead at my lessons for the coming months, I will be able to use all of these materials in an exciting and appropriate way to fuel student learning and achievement. One more time, thanks so much!”

    With gratitude,

    Ms. Tam
