• Puppet Tree!

  Funded Aug 14, 2024

  Thank you for supporting my classroom! I was beyond excited to receive the puppet tree! My students were excited that they were able to help put the tree together and were were able to put out more puppets. Our puppets have been stored in small storage bins and were over looked and not really used. Now that we have the puppet tree, my students are using the puppets more often. I am hearing more conversations, imaginative play, and students working together. Thank you again for supporting the youngest learners and providing materials that enhance our play and many other skills!”

• Car Garage!

  Funded Aug 23, 2024

  Thank you for supporting my classroom and the youngest learners! We have enjoyed the Super garage since we opened it! We have not had a day go by that the garage hasn't been used! There is so much imaginative play, conversations, turn taking, and just overall great interactions with the students! We have also used this garage for math! We have sorted cars by color and also size. The garage has been used during open play time and has became a favorite toy in that area. There are many learning possibilities to be had! Thank you again for your support!”

• Style Station!

  Funded Apr 30, 2024

  Thank you for supporting the youngest learners! The styling station has been a huge hit in the dramatic play area. they were so excited to have a barber shop and beauty salon chair. We had to create a "work schedule" so that everyone could have a turn when it was set out for play! The barber shop and salon is used to build social skills, communication skills, pretend play skills, and math skills! we have learned about different hair cuts and ways to style. It has been a great addition to our dramatic play area and we cannot thank you enough!”

• Sort & Stack!

  Funded May 7, 2024

  Thank you for your kindness and supporting my classroom! My students were very excited to have a new sensory seek and find! We have already used the seek and find for small group, calm down time, and just as an free choice option.

  While my students were using the sensory seek and find, I heard my students identifying many objects and was excited to match the items to the pictures. I will continue to use the sensory seek and find toy for a calming strategy, open play, and during small group time. Thank you again for you support!”

• Language Building!

  Funded May 7, 2024

  Thank you for supporting my classroom and the youngest learners! The school year has just gotten started and my students are loving the new file folder games!

  The first set of file folders we opened is the vocabulary set. This set has been great for my students who may be learning English as a second language and for my students who have a language and or speech delay. The file folders have been a great resource for small groups and for one on one instruction.

  Thank you again for supporting the youngest learners!”

• Go Fish!

  Funded Apr 23, 2024

  Thank you for supporting my project! It is amazing to be able to give my students and their families an opportunity to be able to have quality time to create bonds and memories! While families are spending quality time together, their children are also learning.

  My students were excited to to play Go Fish Alphabet! We played together as a school family. When we were learning the game, there were many questions and conversations happening between the students and I. We now play this game daily and are learning so much!

  Thank you again for supporting the youngest learners!”

• Circle Time Revamp!

  Funded Apr 5, 2024

  Thank you for supporting my project! I am so excited to have more organizational materials for our circle time. My students had so many questions about the pocket chart and were eager to help me put the pieces in their place!

  The pocket chart and the accessories will be used each day to support student learning during greeting time. Eventually, my students will independently manipulate the chart and help teach the concepts. I am so excited to provide this opportunity to my students.

  Thank you again for supporting the youngest learners!”

• Preschool Painting!

  Funded Mar 27, 2024

  First, I want to thank you for supporting my classroom!

  The paint pumps, paint trays, and dabbers were put to use right away! The pumps make it so much more efficient to get paint.

  Several of my students have adversions to getting their hands messy. When one of my students who doesn't like to paint grabbed a dabber and began to paint, I was so thrilled! This is a huge step for him.

  It is donors like you that keeps classrooms filled with awesome materials. Thank you again for supporting the youngest learners!”

• STEM & Fairytales!

  Funded Jan 18, 2024

  i cannot thank you enough for contributing to my project! My students were beyond excited when we opened the package. I barely had enough time to get the boxes open and pieces out!

  These STEM sets are the perfect companions for our books to help enrich our learning. I have already noticed more team work, use of larger vocabulary, and problem solving skills. All three sets are very popular and are used on a daily basis during independent work time. Thank you again for being a supporter of the youngest learners!”

• Reading Time!

  Funded Dec 13, 2023

  I really appreciate your generosity and your support! My students love to read and the they were so happy to receive new books! The positional, fairytales, imaginative, interactive and counting books are great additions to our bookshelf. One of the interactive books that we received is a hit! We have had so much fun reading, "I Say Ooh. You Say Ahh!"

  Early literacy is so important and having a variety of books helps support student engagement. My hope as a preschool teacher is to give my students the love for reading and I cannot do that without a variety of books! It's donors like you that continues to support my hopes for my students! Thank you again for your generosity!”
