Hatching Real-Life Chickens in Pre-K!
Funded Feb 28, 2025Thank you so much for your generosity! My students will learn so much more by having such a great experience in our classroom.
With your donation, we are able to purchase materials needed for hatching baby chickens-an incubator, a heat lamp, water and feed containers, and a bunch of theme-related books. My students will learn so much more about farms. I cannot wait for the learning to begin!

At-Home Materials=Learning Success!
Funded Aug 16, 2021I want to thank you for your generosity and kindness in donating money to support my DonorsChoose Project!
My pre-k students this year face more challenges than those in past years: no interaction with children their own age, no meaningful experiences like going to the grocery store or the children's museum, not possessing basic school skills are just a few of the issues we face this year. BUT the materials you helped buy are making a big difference in at-home learning for my students!
I send home learning materials/activities with my students almost every week. We first use the materials in small groups for two weeks prior to sending home, so we can pre-teach how to use them before they go home with our kiddos. I received positive feedback from multiple families on how they love the activities and have fun playing them with their child. This makes me so happy! We have noticed a growth in basic skills such as color and shape recognition, as well as identifying letters in their names!
The first time one of my students saw the colored pom poms, cupcake papers, and laminated sorting grid for a Color Sorting Activity, a smile lit up his face, and he asked "This is ALL for me?!" Your donations have made a lot of pre-k children happy, so THANK YOU!”
With gratitude,
Ms. Servough
