• Learning Duo

  Funded Dec 23, 2020

  Thank you for contributing to this project. The Surface Duo allows access as a camera or hand held tablet. We have used it to record and document events and learning transpiring during hybrid learning. The attached slide show will show signage during Black History month, getting ready to learn how to use a 3D printer and makerspace activity in the library.

  This is a great tool since most kids only know Apple products. The Surface Duo gives all users the ability to learn and explore PC/Android usage as the navigation is different.

  Thank you for supporting learning, technology in creation and public school children. God bless you!”

• If You Can Dream It, Then You Can Draw IT

  Funded Dec 30, 2020

  Thank you for funding a virtual visitor and artist. Now more than ever, it is important for kids to see art, illustrations and creativity. Having an artist talk to them and show the process is not only motivating, but also inspiring. The biggest take away and strong lesson was to never give up. Our visiting artist and illustrator emphasized how we will all come to obstacles but to keep pushing through them. And kids also got to see that what starts as a hobby or something fun can become an occupation or something you make money at.

  Thank you again for making learning fun and interesting and stimulating library patrons to go above and beyond in their endeavors.”

• Extending Visuals

  Funded Oct 8, 2020

  Thank you for your donation. You are a blessing and I truly appreciate your support of public education and school libraries.

  Having a second screen facilitates greater work flow, consistency and improves learning for scholars. Not only can more tabs be open and more work completed, but kids can see and we can implement different projects. Hybrid and remote learning can be difficult as we all adjust to new practices and methodologies. This screen eases that adjustment and helps to make the learning community a more fluid and flexible environment.

  Thank you and God bless you!”

• Design Dreaming

  Funded Sep 9, 2020

  Thank you for funding design supplies and resources for the school library's makerspace. We are excited to use hands on things and create, design, invent. innovate and make. Nothing is as important as creativity. I always stress to the kids that they should stop consuming and start creating. Your generous donation enables us to do just that.

  In the next few weeks, my scholars are physically returning and I cannot think of a better welcome back than to start a project with them. By learning design concepts and doing things trial and error, learning is more authentic and stays with people.

  Thank you again and God bless you!”

• Less Background Noise = Greater Engagement

  Funded Sep 26, 2020

  Thank for for the donation to enable no static lessons, help and support. It is so important for the library to be up to date and ahead of the times in technology. IT is also important to be a resource of help and support for the scholars and stakeholders. Your generous contribution allows all of those things to happen. Not having to rely on broken headphones and not having a mic are no longer an issue. You donation is facilitating learning, listening and research. I am able t conduct lessons and lead accountable talk. Though not in the building, lessons are being conducted smooth, seamlessly and where everyone can hear each other.

  Thank you and God bless !”

• If You Can Visualize It Then You Can Record It

  Funded Sep 12, 2020

  Thank you, thank you , thank you!

  The ring light and green screen will enable me to record better lit lessons and be more effective as a teacher. When scholars return in person, they can learn to use both to change background settings, make videos and PSAs for classes as well as start livestream of morning announcements and news.

  Your generous donation is greatly appreciated. More importantly, it makes my heart sing that people support school libraries in a time when many budget cuts are being made.

• STEM Innovators

  Funded Aug 22, 2020

  My kids love to use their hands and you have blessed them with the opportunity to create, to make, to learn and design. Through this research project on learning of the way that female inventors have forged for them and with the cricut design tools, kids will be able to explore ways to add creativity and learn design throughout the library's makerspace.

  The kids are so thrilled to get started and will be putting free time towards learning patience, design and resilience as they make mistakes, learn and finish their own conception from beginning to end.

  Thank you and God bless you!”

• #FillEveryShelf and Fill the Soul

  Funded Jun 25, 2020

  Thank you for supporting additional books in the school library. Books with diverse characters, cultures and themes help to build a more inclusive learning community. It is so important to be able to see and read about others that are like you in books. It is also great to open minds and expose kids to worlds different from their. That will build tolerance, curiosity and love.

  These books are the start in making a foundation of equity. For it is through education that we fight hate. Books carry ideas and inspire others to make the world better.
