Every Job Needs the Right Tool!
Funded Dec 16, 2022Thank you, Thank you, Thank you.
I just wanted to thank you for the wonderful donation to my classroom. My students have enjoyed the new clip boards and robot mice as I have. They love going to the reading center because they can use their clip boards to gather evidence. Now they always have something to lean on. The students have enjoyed exploring how to program the robot mice during class group work time too. My sweet second grade students even took their learning to the next level by checking each other's answers when doing their math work using the clip boards. Learning has come to life for my sweet students because of generous people like you."”

Funded Aug 9, 2022Thank you so much for supporting my classroom. The students and I are using our new letter tiles daily. These tiles are assisting us in learning how to spelling new words. In addition, we love our new white board where we can clearly see the lessons of the day. These donations are so important to our classroom as we use them daily.
Please know, my students and I forever grateful for your generosity and we will continue to grow and learn because of all your generous donations. Once again, thank you!”

Funded May 17, 2022Thank you for investing in the our students and their futures. It means so much to them to have their work proudly displayed in the hallway. The donations of others are a testiment to the belief that the children of the world really are our future.
I just want you to know that your donations will not only impact the lives of the students this year but the lives of students for many years to come.
As the adage goes, "giving is not about the donation but it about making a difference" and because of you, you have made the difference in how these students will see their work displayed througout the school.”

Funded Nov 7, 2021Thank you so much for your donations! The new printer, new books and supplies have made such a huge impact on my students. As we continue to learn ASL in our classroom, these books have been a huge support to help my students have materials study at home. The students have enjoyed exploring and utilizing our new ASL materials. The students are now working on a "Take Action" project where the students in the class are going to the community to make our school, a more inclusive environemnt for all.
In addition, our learning has become visible for all to see since we can now print out our work for all to enjoy. Once again, thank you for your generous donations.”

Today a Learner in Computer Science, Tomorrow a Leader!
Funded Mar 23, 2019As a fourth grade teacher for the past six years, and 18 years in the classroom, I know how hard it is to ensure that every child gets what they need each and every day. That is why having my Computer Science project funded through your organization made such an impact for me as a teacher and my students as learners. This year, with your materials I was given the opportunity to differentiate my students reading, writing, math and Social Studies by using the materials readily that were engaging and easily accessible to my students. My ENL students have progressed in the mastery of English as they communicate with their classmates on how to use the materials. As you can imagine, I can go on and on about how wonderful of an opportunity this was for me and my students.
Thanking you for your dedication and recognition to all teachers. I am looking forward to working on my next project.”

Funded Jan 28, 2019Wow! First of all, let me say thank you to all the generous donors who made this project possible. As you can imagine, supplies run out fast when there are 31 people in a room. That is why it is so important for these donations to reach our students. This month, the students have been using their brand new supplies in the classroom. For instance, we made
Dioramas with the card stock paper we received and are able to sharpen our pencils with our new pencil sharpeners.
The students are were so excited when the materials arrived and they were surprised at the amount of support from our family and friends. There is not enough to be said about the generosity and love from all of our donors. I just want to leave you with this thought. Today is the day you changed someone's life.
Thank you for your continued support and I look forward to having our next project funded soon.”

Guided Reading Project!
Funded Oct 19, 2017Dear Donors,
As a fourth grade teacher for the past six years, and 18 years in the classroom, I know how hard it is to ensure that every child gets what they need each and every day. That is why having my Guided Reading project funded through your organization was so impactful for me as a teacher and my students as learners. This year, with your materials I was given the opportunity to differentiate my students reading, writing, math and Social Studies by using the materials readily accessible through Education.Com. This year, also, in particular, most of my students are on or above grade level standards. My ENL students have progressed from levels F to Levels J in their reading comprehension and can write a cohesive paragraph during writing time. As you can imagine, I can go on and on about how wonderful of an opportunity this was for me and my students.
Thanking you for your dedication and recognition to all teachers. I am looking forward to working on my next project.
Sincerely,
