• Heidi Songs: Learning ABCs through Music

  Funded Aug 19, 2024

  Thank you for giving my students the gift of learning through song. We use Heidi Songs every single day. We dance and sing along to songs that help us learn our letters/letter sounds, numbers, sight words, and more. We listen to songs called "brain breaks" to help us get our wiggles out in a fun way so we are ready to sit and learn for the next part of our day. I have been using Heidi Songs for a few years now and it is so beneficial for young learners. I hear them singing songs throughout the day to help them remember how to spell words. Thank you for this beneficial program.”

• Literacy Station Engagement!

  Funded Sep 13, 2024

  Thank you for helping my classroom get things that we need to make our Kindergarten classroom enjoyable and organized. My students are going to love looking at a book on a comfy cushion and using spinners to play games that help with letter and number recognition. Your generosity is helping my classroom and students out more than you know. Big thank you!”

• Construction in Kindergarten

  Funded Mar 12, 2024

  My kindergarten students absolutely loved working on their construction unit this year. They were able to construct buildings in the block zone as well as songs and dances in our dance studio. The items given to our classroom put them in the zone to create amazing things. The students made construction zones and put the skills they were learning to work. They loved wearing the vests and construction hats. When they were in the dance studio they were using the pretend microphones to create songs. Our construction unit was a favorite in our classroom and we learned so much during that time.”

• Kindness in Kindergarten

  Funded Oct 18, 2023

  Thank you so much for our kindness pouches. Each student got to deliver one kindness bag to someone else in our school or community. They enjoyed putting them together and hand selecting what should go inside and for whom. Our Kindergarteners also got a chance to get a kindness bag for themselves. They learned a lot about how to help others and started to create their own kindness bag with things that they made, created, or found in nature. Our students are incredible and this project showed just how amazing they are.”

• Snack Time for All

  Funded Aug 2, 2023

  Thank you all for helping to give my students snacks this year. I have many students who forget to bring a snack but they did not have to worry this year because I had a bucket they were able to choose from. This allowed my students to not feel singled out or hungry during the day. These snack were appreciated by everyone. I often have to go out and purchase snacks multiple times throughout the year for students who do not bring one from home. This project allowed me to have snacks on hand and not have to worry about getting to the store or telling them that there wasn't any snacks available. Students learn better when their basic needs are met.”
