Funded Jan 4, 2023Thank you so much for contributing to our project. Having a calming corner has been a very beneficial addition to our classroom. The students enjoy using it as a place to work out conflicts and create resolutions. They also use the space as a hang-out and place to complete independent work away from their desks.
It is important for students to be able to have choice throughout the day in terms of work products and order of work completion. In addition to this they like having choice in terms of seating so this space has been a very welcome addition.”

Organize Your Mind
Funded Sep 20, 2022Thank you for supporting our class. These supplies have helped us to stay more organized which saves us a lot time and makes the classroom a lot more appealing to be in. Developing organizational skills takes times and without the right materials, it is very challenging for students to be able to learn these skills. We are fortunate to have access to learning manipulatives to assist us with building conceptual understanding and having easy access has made a huge difference.
The mini brands have been so popular in our movie making lessons. The students created stop motion movies using them and it was so fun and educational.”

Funded Dec 28, 2021We thank you so much for pitching in so we can have these materials for our class. We got a lot of use out of the materials which allowed us to to bring color and imagination into our classroom.
We worked on many fun and creative projects this year including drawing cartoons, making stop-motion movies, and learning how to use green screen for photography as well as movie making. The materials helped students create colorful backgrounds and characters to tell stories and work together.
I truly appreciate the support.”

PE for Everyone
Funded Oct 29, 2021I really love being back in the classroom with students. It has been so great connecting safely in person but there are some outdoor skills the students have not had a chance to engage in the past couple of years. The pe equipment has been a much needed release for my class of energetic second grade students. I have noticed that students really need the practice engaging in opportunities to be team players. They can bond and connect in a different way out doors. It also gives an opportunity for students who may struggle in the classroom to be able to showcase their athleticism and gross motor skills.”

Fun Fall Days
Funded Oct 27, 2021Thank you so much for your donation of computer accessories and Chinese Jump ropes and other science goodies. We have been having a lot of lessons on computer programming and the Botley Robots are a really fun way to take all of the learning and extend it even farther. We also really enjoyed the Chinese jump ropes. We have been taking part in a unit on ancient Chinese civilizations and these items really made a fun connection for our students. We can't wait to explore with the color paddles and the magnets in our upcoming science unit.”

Welcome Back to School
Funded Nov 10, 2021Thank you again for helping our class have some fun outside and inside the classroom. The students really enjoyed working with the Botley kits.

Funded Jun 14, 2021I am so grateful for the opportunity to add this iPad into my classroom instruction for next year. I have been able to use the drawing functions to create some really fun and interactive activities for the first week of school. I have also uploaded many applications and programs that I can use to help my students catch up after missing many instructional hours over the past year and a half. This device will allow my students to learn many important and valuable skills and it will certainly make learning them a lot more fun.”

Funded Sep 30, 2020As we wind down this school year, I am so touched by the generosity of others and the support we received from friends, family, and people we have never met. My students not only survived through an unexpected and new way of learning, buy they also thrived. We have learned new ways to communicate, express ourselves, turn in work, and create projects. The materials we received through this organization and made possibly by your donations allowed us to come together and participate over Zoom and feel connected and together.”
