Brighten My Work
Funded May 3, 2022When they found out this project was funded, my students told me they can't wait to start printing their school projects and reports in color. They love doing projects, and doing them in color will be so much fun for them.
We are very thankful for helping us and making a difference in our classroom. We want to be able to give them a variety of ways they can learn and have experiences they would probably not get at home. This will inspire them in their learning and reward their behavior in class as well."”

Funded Nov 15, 2018Thank you SO much! Having the Fountas & Pinnell reading level testing kit has been SO wonderful! My old "kit" was not a kit at all, but a collection of random books that my district put together and questions about the books. Because these books were not written to be an assessment, they were long, and in order to answer the questions, the students had to read an entire book.
With this new kit, every book was written to be an assessment, so the kids can finish the whole thing quickly. The questions are deep and truly figure out if the student understood what they read.”

Funded Oct 4, 2018Thank you for helping my students enhance their learning by seeing their work in color.

My students were very excited to see the printer being delivered to the classroom because they all knew what that meant, colorful projects.
We are very thankful for helping us and making a difference in our classroom. We want to be able to give them a variety of ways they can learn and have experiences they would probably not get at home. This will inspire them in their learning and reward their behavior in class as well."”

Comprehending Does the Brain Good
Funded Oct 19, 2017THANK YOU VERY MUCH! The comprehension reading cards have been an amazing addition to our classroom. When I informed my students that they were getting several boxes of reading comprehension cards they were beyond excited. One of them stated, "finally, we all can have a chance to practice our reading fluency and comprehension with our new cards".
My class uses the reading comprehension cards on a daily basis during reading centers to practice their vocabulary, spelling, fluency and comprehension. The students seem to enjoy having the opportunity to practice these skills using the reading comprehension cards. The comprehension reading center in my classroom has become one of the students favorite center.
Your reading comprehension card donation was able to bring additional kid friendly reading resources to every child in the class, but more importantly it has help my students ignite the joy of reading.”
