I wanted to thank you on behalf of my students and myself for your thoughtfulness in donating to our classroom. My students love the Bill Nye the Science Guy DVD's. So far my students have been able to extend their learning about birds, atmospheres, bones and muscles, and atoms. My 5th graders have learned so much and it is thanks to you.
Science should be engaging and exciting for students. Bill Nye has excited their interest in science and that is priceless. He has also excited their interest in learning science which is just as priceless.
Without your donation, none of this would have been possible. I cannot thank you enough.”
Thank you so much for your generous giving to public schools. Without the help of supporters like you, public school classroom would be under equipped to teach the necessary skills. These science kits provided my students with hands-on activities they could use on a daily basis. The skills that these students learned are much more than they would have gotten out of a textbook.
When we use centers in the classroom, the look of excitement on the students' faces is priceless. Thank you for reminding them that education is fun!”
Thank you all so much for your dedication to our pursuit of scientific discoveries. We use our microscopes almost everyday. We have looked at our fingerprints, fabric, bees, moths, butterflies, and even moldy apples. The students have learned the correct way to use a microscope and upload pictures to our classroom computer.
We are looking forward to discovering more and more each day through our microscope. There is a mini-world out there and we are going to investigate it.
Thank you again for all of your generous donations.”
I am writing to express my deepest thanks for your donation of science materials to to my classroom. Generous donors like you have helped me to provide the support needed for heterogeneous learners.
My students are really enjoying the various science kits. They have worked in small groups collaborating and generating investigation questions based on the science materials in front of them. They are also creating hypotheses, then planning their own investigations to find the answer to their questions. They are also enjoying the informational books that come in each science kits. So far their favorite is Slow Down Sara, a book about friction!
Thank you so much for your donation to my classroom. My students were so excited for new non-fiction books to read. And I was so excited to have books that were leveled, so it was easy to make sure each child found a good fit. Now that they are reading these books, they are growing as readers and making great connections to all of our science topics. They love the real life pictures and are learning so much about plants, animals, and more. I know these books will be favorites for years to come. We appreciate your support more than we can say!”
Thank you so much for your donations! The kids were so excited to have materials during science time. We use the resources for small centers including writing, observations, and experiments. So far we have used the animals, insects, and matter kits. The kits also includes lots of ideas for experiments that I do for the class, as well as activities that are integrated with art, math and ELA. I am fortunate to have a teacher assistant so I can run successful science centers this year. I hope that next year I will be able to use all of the kits and continue to put an emphasis on science in the classroom. Many of the children have said science is their favorite part of the day. Thank you so much for this wonderful resource!”

We have received the first two editions of Scholastic Super Science magazine. They are everything I expected and more. My students enjoy the articles and pictures. I was impressed with the teachers' guides and how they are tied closely with our new Common Core Objectives. We are always looking for current information packed articles to use with our Reading Curriculum and the magazines have really come through. It is so fun for the students to get an attractive and interesting set or articles each month. I have saved the magazines to use again in the future. Thank you again, these magazines have added to our classroom this year.”

I can't begin to explain what your donations have meant to my students. Not only have the materials impacted their learning in many ways, but you have also taught them a lesson that doesn't come from a book. Your generousity has shown my students how to give to others. They were shocked by the large donations that allowed us to add so many wonderful new things to our classroom.
I think that my students' favorite item was the quiz game show. They are constantly asking me to give them time at the end of class to play. The games have given the students a fun, interactive way to review science concepts. It's a secret, but I am sneaking learning into their 'fun' :)”
Thank you all so much for donating to my science classroom project. This letter of gratitude is only a small sign of my appreciation. The kids have loved seeing the frog, butterfly, worm, and ant habitats up close and personal. It has made science so much more exciting for them. We have also learned a lot from our new classroom set of science books. We have started keeping science notebooks to record all of the new things we are observing, reading, and learning about. We have also done a few in class science poster projects. Without your generous donations none of this would have been possible. Thank you again so much!”
I want to express my sincere thanks for donating to our science program. Please know that with your donations, our class was able to receive these amazing science kits which will help make science come to life for my students!
My students have begun learning about about magnets and weather. These activities are really motivating my students to want to learn more about science. Some students are even going to the library to find books on our science topics to share with the class. The excitement is contagious!
It is awesome to have support from people like you. Your contributions together have made a huge difference in my students' learning. Words cannot describe how grateful we truly are for your donation! Thank you from the bottom of my heart. You put smiles on my students' faces!”
