Keeping Organized Is the Key to Student Success!
Funded Apr 6, 2023Receiving class supplies through DonorsChoose has profoundly impacted both my students and me. With these resources, we can transform our learning environment into a vibrant space where creativity and engagement flourish. The new supplies—ranging from art materials to educational games—have enabled hands-on projects that ignite curiosity and foster collaboration among students. As they explore and create, I've witnessed increased participation and enthusiasm, which has significantly boosted their confidence and academic performance. This generosity not only equips our classroom with necessary tools but also inspires a sense of community and support that reinforces the value of education in their lives. The impact is not just in the materials received but in the motivation and hope it instills in our students for their future.
The arrival of class supplies from DonorsChoose has been a game-changer in our educational journey. Each item, from basic stationery to innovative learning aids, has opened doors to new possibilities for both teaching and learning. With these resources, I've been able to implement diverse instructional strategies that cater to different learning styles, ensuring that every student feels included and valued. The excitement in the classroom has skyrocketed as students engage with the materials, leading to deeper understanding and retention of concepts. Moreover, this initiative has fostered a sense of gratitude and appreciation among my students, who now recognize the importance of community support in their education. This experience has not only enriched our academic environment but also strengthened the bonds between us, reminding everyone that we are part of a larger network committed to fostering growth and success.”

Funded Apr 7, 2022Being a technology/Spanish teacher, I often show videos or have students listen to demonstrations online. In order to accomplish this without having the students balance the volume on their computer, these headphones will allow me to create a quieter learning environment while maintaining a strong academic environment.
Each student will be able to have their own headphone to use during class as well as my current system can "hook up" to each student and they can all listen to me speak and give instructions.. What a learning environment!”

Funded Apr 7, 2022The addition of this laptop to my existing technology classroom has afforded me the opportunity to bring students one on one to a specific location in the classroom for more individualized instruction.
Additionally, this has allowed me to create additional learning spaces in my classroom for more specific make-up sessions for students who might be falling behind in their work.
The HP computer will add value to my classroom and allow me to connect with students on an individual basis and really help with their learning process. I look forward to many more uses of this technology.”

Funded May 3, 2022The impact of donations to my classroom will be endless due to the availability of supplies, technology, and other materials to help my students learn the best possible way and achieve success in the classroom. Being able to present material in an interactive way is the best way to achieve this.
The addition to my desk of my standing desk has allowed me to be more flexible in my teaching because I am able to watch the class better while they are working, thus creating a safer, better learning environment. Having the supplies and ink will also help me create worksheets and other printed materials from my classroom rather than having to go across the hall to the copier each time.
Thank you for your generosity as always!”
