• The Book Fairy brings Scaredy Squirrel to Students!

  Funded Oct 21, 2021

  Thank you SOOO much for bringing this project to life! My students were elated to get their own copies of Scaredy Squirrel at Night and many asked throughout the day if they could retrieve their book for their mailbox to re-engage with their book! They were also so thrilled that the Book Fairy left them a message that they proposed we write the BF letters of gratitude and wonderings! This project helped spark excitement about reading, enjoying a new-to-us series, and celebrating the love of books!

  Thank you again!”

• PRIDE Project

  Funded Jun 27, 2021

  Thank you SO much for supporting our Pride Project! My students very much enjoyed learning about the history of PRIDE month--Harvey Milk, Gilbert Baker and the Rainbow Flag, the Stonewall Inn, and the fight for equal rights for LGBTQ+ members of our communities and families.

  These books not only supported the learning of students this school year, but will continue to support conversations, advocacy and awareness for students in years to come.

  The tie dye socks were a hit too! We were so excited to rinse them, dry them, and share our creations with our families. Now, students feel knowledgable about the colors behind the rainbow flag and the importance of people in our communities having equal rights when it comes to love and identity. They will wear their socks proudly knowing all are welcome!

  Love wins!”

• Crazy for Chickens!

  Funded Feb 9, 2021

  Cock-a-doodle-doo! By that we mean, thanks SO much for making our chicken project possible!

  I think this unit, this year especially, has been a sweet reminder of the excitement and joy that learning can bring to our lives! We were lucky enough to have 8... yes 8 chicks hatch and join our classroom community! Students have studied the ins and outs of chickens and have loved writing, reading, and even listening to chicken sounds (on YouTube + in person) and stories (in person)!

  Thank you again from the bottom of our chick loving hearts!”
