  • Stand Up! Talk It Out! Share It Out!

    Funded Oct 8, 2023

    Thank you for supporting this project. You’ve given my students the ability to move from a sit and get math class to a thinking math environment. They won’t just practice steps anymore they will move towards a real understanding of math. Thank you again for your priceless gift of support.”

    With gratitude,

    Ms. Jones

  • Whip Up Good Health

    Funded Jul 6, 2022

    Thanks to your support students learned to cook chewies, make pickles and work in the garden to become self sufficient. The students enjoyed learning to cooking for themselves, their families and their school friends. Without your donations this would not have been possible. Your donations helped students learn skills that will help them during the summer and their early days of living outside of their family home wether they go to college or start working immediately after high school. Thank you for your priceless support.”

  • Organize! The First Step Towards Success

    Funded Jan 2, 2023

    Thank you for your donations. Students have used the dividers, sheet protectors, sticky notes and index cards to organize their work. They shared their work with their parents in student led conferences to show progress and to illustrate their goals for third quarter.

    As they began third quarter the students have a clear understanding of how to plan and organize their work to be successful with work completion. Several students have been able to raise their grades by one grade level. The success they feel at this accomplishment because they were organized is priceless. Thank you for your donations.”

  • Can't You Make Them Learn?

    Funded Nov 30, 2021

    Can't you make them learn was a hit with my children. One of the books was Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. The children did not know that a book could be better than the movie. Which now means we will watch the older version of Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. The children chose to read these books in place of their independently chosen reading books, during silent reading time. It was a joy to see them light up while talking about the books, in circle. These books help the children's love of reading grow. The gift for the love of reading is priceless. Thank you for your support.”

  • Colorful Approach to Building Reading Skills

    Funded Nov 6, 2021

    Thanks to your donation, we were able to purchase individual reading books on the children's reading level. By having books on their level they were not intimidated by their new reading books. They participated in book clubs. As you can see in the pictures the children loved reading the books. They read under desks, in corners, by windows and all around the classroom. Some students fell in love with their books and are reading other books by those same authors. This donation helped expose them to books of color and allowed them to improve their ELA test scores.”

  • Exploration Is the Engine that Drives Innovation.

    Funded Oct 15, 2019

    Thank you so much for your donations! Without you this would not be possible. My students and I are so very appreciative of your support for education and creative, hands-on learning. We are learning about landforms and ancient cultures by creating them, using our new materials. They are a great tool as we continue to grow and learn in the classroom.

    The project making is the culmination activity for the children after they have researched, read and created three to five paragraph papers about their chosen landform and ancient civilization. Thank you again!”

  • Graphing Their Path to Success

    Funded Aug 28, 2019

    I am fortunate enough to teach children in a Title one school. Your donations have helped provide them with the experience and exposure to technology that was/is taken for granted by others in different schools. Because if your donations they will not be at a disadvantage as they progress through school. These calculators are used on their state tests and by allowing them to practice with them in their pre-test studies they will know how to use them to succeed in the future. Thank you for your donations.”

The TI-83 graphing calculators will be used in more than just mathematics. The children will use the calculators in science as well, to graph the data they have collected from self designed science experiments. Having the calculator will allow the children to focus on understanding the concepts and not calculations or drawing the graphs. The additional time will be used to focus on interpreting and solving real world problems. By donating to our project, you will not only help to improve and increase student attention and focus, you will ultimately help to increase their academic achievement. Students will be able to simply focus on the academic material at hand, and not whether their materials are going to work or not. Plus in this technology literate world, any interaction with updated technology will increase their literacy as well as their desire to learn and use the new technology!
