  • Artist On Exhibit/ See Who I Am

    Funded Dec 26, 2008

    It is with great appreciation that I send this "Thank you " to you, my donors. Knowing that my students' art work will have a special display case on the outside of my art studio is fantastic. My students work very hard for me and they create beautiful pieces of visual art. They will be proud to have their art work displayed for their peers and other teachers to view and appreciate. I feel that the case will add a new dimension to my teaching because it is my plan to honor a student each month as "The Artist of the Month" and I know that my students will strive to become "that student" Thank you!

    Sincerely,

    Mrs. ”

  • Drums Without Distraction!

    Funded Dec 9, 2008

    Thank you so much for funding my DonorsChoose.org project! It is great to know that you are a supporter of music education. This project will allow my students to gain experience playing on a drum set and prepare for musical performances without distracting other performers who are also practicing in the same room. Music is a vital part of my life and of my students' lives and I wish to thank you for allowing us to continue to pursue our goals in music”

  • Art: Up Close & Personal

    Funded Oct 24, 2008

    I can't believe it! I am so grateful to you for contributing to my project. These resources will add so much to my students' learning. My students love to look at artwork, but it can be frustrating to try to explain the importance of a particular piece while showing them a 3 inch picture in an art book. The art prints that I ordered will be especially valuable to my students with visual impairments. They also learn so much by playing games, and I can't wait to use the art history games with them. This project will add amazing impact to my teaching. Thank you so much”

  • Move Over Beyonce and Shakira...Pre-K is Ready to Dance

    Funded Oct 17, 2008

    Thank you so much for deciding to fund our proposal! It made my day and I look forward to using our new materials. Children love to sing and dance. Music helps children feel happy and feel good about themselves and others. I always play music while the children are playing in their centers. We will use the musical instruments for group activities. They will experience using instruments and will also get a chance to practice working cooperatively with others. Singing and playing music together also encourages every child to sing and remember tunes. The children will not only be experiencing rhythm and movement but will also be engaging in language development. Thank you for caring enough about children to fund this proposal. I really appreciate your generosity”

  • Projecting the Future: Lessons with an LCD Projector

    Funded Oct 9, 2008

    It's finished! The donations have come in and the projector has been completely funded! Due to your kindness, over 100 of my current students will experience lessons that are more technologically rich now than before. Thousands more may benefit from your gift in the years to come. This is no small gift you've made possible; you have extended my students' potential as learners and my own as their teacher.

    I have to say I am deeply moved by your giving. Despite living in this time of economic turmoil and uncertainty, you gave. Again I say it is no small gift you've made.

    On behalf of my students, and from the bottom of my heart, Thank you.
