• Books to Spark Interest!

  Funded Mar 2, 2020

  I hope that this little note finds you and your loved ones doing well! Thank you so much for donating to our second grade classroom book project. We are in receipt of the books, however our students haven't been able to use them due to COVID 19 concerns in our community. Our school is currently on 100% distance learning until the end of the 1st quarter. My plan is to add these new books to our classroom library next school year or earlier depending on when students are back in school for face to face instruction.”

• Helping Supply Students With Basic School Supplies!

  Funded May 13, 2020

  I hope that this little note finds you and your loved ones doing well! Thank you so much for donating to our second grade classroom. Unfortunately I haven't been able to give these wonderful school supplies to my students this school year due to COVID 19 concerns. Our school is currently conducting 100% distance learning and our school provided supplies to each family to be used during distance learning at home. I plan to use these supplies with all of my students next school year. I am very grateful for all of your support and I'm sure my future students and their parents will also be grateful for your generous donations.”

• Mobile Seats to Enhance Student Engagement!

  Funded Sep 23, 2019

  Thank you so much for donating brand new seats to our second grade classroom. The colorful seats add a cheerful vibe to our learning environment.

  My students were so excited to see all of the new seats that they could use. They love the bright colors and the fact that the seats swivel. The seats allow students to move/fidget while they sit and learn. It also allows students to collaborate with one another.

  The seats will be well used for many more years to come. Your thoughtfulness is greatly appreciated.”

• Engaging Magazines for Eager Readers!

  Funded May 13, 2019

  Thank you so much for donating Scholastic News magazines to our second grade classroom. My students and I enjoy reading and learning new content knowledge about the world around us. The lessons are age appropriate and it targets some of our grade level common core standards. The non fiction text features are what I like best about the Scholastic News articles. It helps students to visualize and understand the content. Most of the articles are interesting and meaningful for my students. We look forward to reading and learning about more new topics.”

• Comfy, Bright Carpet for Storytime!

  Funded May 26, 2019

  THANK YOU so much for donating the colorful rainbow carpet to our second grade classroom! My students and I are so grateful for your support! We have used the comfy carpet every school day since its arrival. The colorful squares help each student to stay in their own personal space. We use the carpet during reading and math instruction, read alouds, indoor recess play, classroom yoga exercises and other activities. The carpet adds comfort and color to our learning environment! It was a must have for our classroom and we will continue to enjoy it for many years to come! MAHALO!”
