• Books About Chickens!

  Funded Mar 16, 2025

  Thank you SO much for supporting this project and bringing books about chickens to our classroom community! My students were elated to hear that we will grow chickens - frequently asking "will we grow chickens today?" to which tells me their curiosity and love of reading about them will go hand and hand with our 21 day incubation countdown!

  Lastly, thank you for supporting public school classrooms like ours - you are bringing joy to life and learning!”

• Help! We Need Headphones!

  Funded Jan 13, 2025

  Thank you so much for helping bring a set of 6 headphones to my kindergarten classroom! These headphones have allowed my students to listen, read, and answer comprehension questions using the online app Reading A-Z! Additionally, they have come in handy during city-wide assessments that require listening and proctoring to the entire classroom community. Additionally, the twistables included in this project have allowed us to refill the colors we were missing (or had lost!) and made reading, writing and art run smoothly! Thank you again for your support and generosity!”

• Comfortable and Cozy Flexible Reading Chairs!

  Funded Dec 3, 2024

  Thank you so much for supporting this project! My students were thrilled to learn that we would be receiving these chairs. These chairs are used daily - each student has a day of the week they get to spend all day listening, reading, or drawing in their green chair! It is a highlight and allows for more space for the remaining students on the rug. Additionally, students feel responsible to retrieve and return the green chair helping build independence (and teamwork if it's a little heavy for that friend)! Thank you for supporting public school classrooms!”

Additionally, these books are a great resource for our third grade reading buddies who visit our classroom once a week and read to us. These books will be used for many school years to come!

• Snap-Bots are Best!

  Funded Dec 3, 2024

  Thank you so much for supporting this STEM based hands on choice time center. Snap bots have allowed my students to collaborate, be creative, and work together. Additionally this center requires students to communicate, share, and negotiate various pieces to create the snapped robots they imagine. Additionally, this center brought so much excitement and curiosity to my classroom, especially for my students who typically do not gravitate towards STEM based centers to be eager and willing to try something new. Thank you again for supporting public school classrooms like ours - we are extremely grateful for your generosity.”

• Choice Time Centers!

  Funded Sep 22, 2024

  Thank you so much for supporting this project! My students and I were thrilled to add kinetic sand to our rotation of choice time centers - it has been a big hit! We also use these centers on rainy days for indoor recess. We have also been using our wooden step stool to step up and retrieve any high frequency words we need to spell or use in our writing. This stool will also become super helpful when our daily tens frame count of days of school reaches a level that is too high for a kindergarten friend to reach. We are grateful for your generosity and support of public school classrooms like ours! Thank you again!!”

• Back for Books: Who Would Win Coyote vs. Dingo

  Funded Oct 8, 2024

  Thank you SO much for bringing such an engaging series to my classroom and to the homes of my 22 students! They were thrilled to learn we have a real life *book fairy* and that they got to keep the Who Would Win book Coyote vs. Dingo! For some students, sharing this series with their family might spark engagement in the series.

  Your support has helped my kindergarten students develop a curiosity and love of reading and for that I am extremely grateful! Not to mention, who doesn't love a little glitter?!

  Thanks again :)”

• A Mix of Supplies

  Funded Aug 14, 2024

  Thank you so much for supporting this project and helping our start to the school year run smoothly! With your help I was able to give all 22 of my students a classroom a pencil pouch with their own set of twistable Crayola crayons that will last all school year (and into next). We were also able to begin building our fine motor skills from day one by cutting, pasting, glueing and writing on a variety of paper options. Additionally, this project brought us sentence strips for writing and labeling students names and important items in our classroom.

  Thanks again for your support of public school classrooms like ours!”
