It is with mixed emotions that I am participating in Mustaches for Kids. That's right, for the next three weeks, I will be subjecting myself to public humiliation and private doubt by growing what will no-doubt be a ridiculous looking Mustache. In order to justify this endeavor I need your support. Please sponsor my Mustache by picking a classroom project from the list below to support. And wish me and my Mustache luck.

  • Sound Affects - Part II

    Funded Feb 11, 2010

    I would like to thank you for the tremendous contribution you have made to my current and future students. You enable us to engage in a daily routine where groups of students rotate to the listening center, then respond to the literature after listening / reading the book at the center. All of my students look forward to this routine, and inquire about it every morning to ensure they will get their listening center time. They have remained engaged in this routine through the year, and have gained exposure to a wide variety of literature.

    I am extremely thankful for your kindness, and your support for inner-city public school classrooms like mine.”

    With gratitude,

    Ms. Arafin

  • A New Kindergarten Carpet: Missing a Special Place to "Park"

    Funded Mar 1, 2010

    Ever since the arrival of the carpet, my children and I have felt more at home than we ever had before. I am so grateful that you have helped make our vision come true. Without you, my children would still be cramped and uncomfortable doing something that they love to do; read! This addition to my classroom will bring so much joy for years to come. It is bright and colorful; it makes such a beautiful difference then our bare floor.I cannot wait to open that first read aloud in September to the new kindergarten and have them enjoy their own "spot to park" for reading.”

    With gratitude,

    Mrs. Papeika

  • Walter Dean Myers Author Study

    Funded Mar 15, 2010

    I hope you are all well! I wanted to extend a personal and heartfelt THANK YOU to all of you who helped to make this project happen.

    We have spent the last month reading the first of the two novels, Somewhere in the Darkness, and the students really did love the book. So many of them do not have books at home, or a quiet place that they can sit to read, so my classroom is the one place where they can really enjoy the experience of "getting lost in a book".

    For many of the students, the story of a teenage boy who has not seen his father due to him being in prison was a familiar one. It was a great opportunity for the students to feel safe to share some of their own thoughts, through the safety-net of the novel.

    The students are already asking when we can start reading "Hoops" and I'm hoping to find a way to read quickly and fit it in before the end of the year.

    Thanks again to you all!”

    With gratitude,

    Mrs. Carlson
