I'm elated to start my third season as a grower. We realized that the good people under the Arch needed to share in Mustache glory, so we opened up Mustaches for Kids St.Louis! That's right, for the next four 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 and funding a classroom project from the list below to support. And wish me and my Mustache luck.

Thank you so much for contributing to this proposal! Your donations provided a huge library of AP Environmental Science Exam preparation materials. The flash cards, test preparation books, and practice exams were all used by my students as they prepared for the AP Environmental Science Exam.
After the exam, nearly all of my students told me how the questions and topics in the review materials appeared on the exam. This helped them to feel confident about their performance on the exam instead of second guessing their answers.
I will continue to use these resources for many years. I am already looking forward to next school year. I have come up with even more ways to integrate these review materials into my AP Environmental Science course.
Thank you again for your generosity. You are truly making a difference in the lives of students.”

Thank you for funding this project! Math is such an important part of education and without the basics of math students can not be challenged. These flashcards are used in my classroom every single day and the kids have so much fun with them. Not only are they learning the basic math facts that they need to know, but they are also increasing their fluency in these math facts. By doing this, they are able to complete multi-step challenging math problems at a much quicker pace.
My class really enjoys using these flashcards. They have created their owns games with the flashcards and they always want to use them. They have been a great practice tool and they always quickly pull them whenever they finish an assignment early to get extra practice.
Thank you again for this gift you have given to my classroom. You didn't just give them flashcards, you opened the door to any challenging math problem!”
I just wanted to express my sincere gratitude for your generosity. Both the students and I are very grateful for people like you that believe in us and support us through donations to projects on donors choose.
I have been using the leap frog books daily in the classroom. Students who complete class work often choose to read a book using the leap frogs. At other times we use the leap frogs and books as a center activity where all of the students get the opportunity to sit as a group and rotate to that center. It is really helpful that the books are leveled and I can choose the appropriate level of book according to the students reading level.
The students love using the leap frogs and reading along with the stories that you helped us to get. It has helped several students in a variety of areas including: reading fluency, comprehension, spelling, vocabulary, and writing. They are making a great impact on learning in our classroom.”

Thank you so much your generous donation to my classroom. Without your help, there is no way we could have read such a classic piece of literature. In addition, Romiette and Julio will offer an amazing opportunity for my students to make a "real world" connection to Shakespeare's timeless piece.
Throughout our first unit with Romeo and Juliet, I have seen students stepping up to read and act that have often stayed quiet in class. It's been an amazing experience to see my urban students responding to the text.
My school has a hard enough time supplying teachers with paper and pencils. It is without a doubt in my mind that without your help we wouldn't have been able to make Romeo and Juliet a part of our learning this year. Thank you so much for your generosity.
Thank you so much for the difference you have made in my room for these students. They have really enjoyed using crafts to learn and understand the concepts better. They have built models of Earth Cycles with the stickers, stencils, and wikki sticks. They have used the other tools to make textures for habitats and much more. You have really made a difference in the engagement of these students. I can not thank you enough for your support of my students and classroom.”
