  • We Are All Makers and Creators!

    Funded Sep 28, 2022

    Since I have such different types of learners and learning styles within my classroom, receiving these materials will definitely brighten the room as well as their education. I will be able to print our colorful center activities from Teachers Pay Teachers and print out my students' colorful projects that they create. Having their work up on our walls, and in color will give them a sense of ownership and accomplishment. My students are super excited to have materials such as the Magnatiles, which will provide ways for them to work on social skills, communication skills, team building, and their fine and gross motor skills. Thank you so much!”

  • Meaningful Mother's Day Project!

    Funded May 1, 2023

    This was such a wonderful and meaningful project that we completed in our classroom. To have each mother come to our classroom to celebrate Mother's Day and to complete an art project with their child, was truly amazing. My students absolutely love art, and I loved that they were able to experience this with their own mother's during the school day. Art is such an amazing wait for my students to express themselves and show their creativity in any way that they choose. It was such a special experience that everyone got to experience together.”

  • iPads for Success!

    Funded Sep 29, 2022

    Being able to receive the iPads for my classroom has truly enhanced my students' learning experience. The iPads can be used in so many ways and provides the individualized instruction and the differentiation that is needed to meet the needs of all of my students. They also provide my students with motivation and encouragement, knowing that they can learn while using the Ipad, or have the opportunity to earn the iPads after completing their work. I see that students are so much more eager to learn and actively participate in their learning. Thank you for providing my students with such wonderful learning opportunities!”

As a seventh year teacher, I have been introduced to the greatest job working with the greatest children. I believe that the opportunity of being a teacher is such a gift. I've learned that the students I was trying to inspire, were the ones that ended up inspiring me. I hope to keep being inspired by every student in each year to come.
