  • Calm, Cool, and Collected Classroom

    Funded Aug 29, 2024

    Thank you so much for helping to fund my classroom project. Just today, three students complained of stomach pains from hunger, so what you have contributed will go directly to keeping that from happening -- at least in my classroom. With your help, my students will be able to focus more, feel more comfortable, and really be able to succeed in their academic careers.”

  • Shelfie Project

    Funded Apr 22, 2023

    Thank you so much for contributing to my shelfie project! These kids deserve to read the coolest, most relatable literature available and you have helped them on their journey. My hope is that they will fall in love with words through one of these items, which is thanks to you!! We appreciate you!!”

  • Under the Stars

    Funded Apr 17, 2023

    Thank you so much for supporting this project. These students have worked so hard to accomplish what they have throughout their high school career - not least, working through the pandemic and all of the stresses that has caused and continues to cause. These kids deserve the best, and you've helped me do that for them!”

  • Literature as Empathetic Learning

    Funded Jul 20, 2021

    My students are using the books you helped put in their hands for the work we do in my classes. It is so refreshing to give students books that are written by people who have similar life experiences and identities and really makes a difference in their overall experience with learning to read thoroughly and critically. We've spent time working through a few of the books together in class, and more are on schedule for this semester! It's incredibly helpful for the students to have their own books to make notes or write questions in the margins. I show my students how I read and interact with my own personal books, and I hope they carry this love of "conversation" with books that I have. Without your support, this wouldn't be possible for my students to do at this point in their lives - thank you so much!”

  • Diversity and The Classroom Library

    Funded Dec 14, 2020

    The class that these books were intended for has been partially in-person and partially online (at the same time!) this school year due to the pandemic. What I decided to do was actually put together gift bags for each of the six girls enrolled in my Dual Credit Literature and Composition class (which is simultaneously their high school senior English credit and also 2000-level English courses on their college transcripts). Each of my students received one of each of the texts that you helped purchase, and the majority of them I hand-delivered to their front doors (no-contact!).

    The collection of books I chose were deliberately diverse, and those that we have gotten through so far have been eye-opening for my students. Each student is female in this class, all but one of them is either of Hispanic or Asian decent, and four of the six are first-generation Americans. One of my students recently told me she was actually born in a refugee camp in Thailand. My students had no idea that authors like Zora Neale Hurston and Amy Tan could be part of a high school curriculum, and more so, that we could discuss The American Dream in all of these texts in comparison to F. Scott Fitzgerald's novel The Great Gatsby. The girls decided that Zora Neale Hurston's novel was more important to the literary landscape than Fitzgerald's, and I find myself wondering how these conversations would have been different if there had been a male student in the room.

    Despite the pandemic, this year with these students has been amazing, and the gift of these novels for us has truly been a game-changer for them - and me! I am so proud to have had the opportunity to teach these students and help them see authors more like themselves and read stories that they can see themselves in - all while in a public high school classroom in Texas. Thank you so very much for your help.”

  • Visualizing Success Through a More Personalized Classroom Experience

    Funded Aug 22, 2019

    My students had so much fun being creative and personalizing their notebooks and folders. Because I have so many supplies for this now, we have actually used some time in class for a second round of decorating. This has really given my students a source of pride and joy when they see their classroom tools. Rather than the monotony of a manila folder and black-and-white Composition Notebook, students are able to express themselves and feel seen in their learning process. It makes me eternally grateful for people like you who have donated to their happiness and success. Thank you so much!”

    This classroom project was brought to life by An Anonymous Funder and 7 other donors.
In my classroom, students are co-creators of their learning experience. Because they sometimes have trouble visualizing themselves thriving in an academic world, it is important that each student be able to see themselves first represented in their classroom materials. Writing is a daily activity for my students, and the personalization of their notebooks and workspace will help them process the future of their own success in business and/or academia. Putting creative touches on their workspaces will inspire them and give them a sense of ownership, and seeing images around the classroom related to their interests will inspire them in ways that they had not previously thought possible.
