My Project

As a dedicated teacher, I am always striving to provide my students with the best possible learning experience! My first-grade students love coming to school every day, and they are eager to learn!

Each student comes to school with varying levels of learning, and creating these supporting resources will help me address their specific learning needs.

These gift cards will enable me to purchase teaching resources that will provide differentiated lessons and increase student engagement throughout the year. What better way to help and support a teacher than to use the creativity and intelligence of other teachers!

With these differentiated materials, I believe that I will be able to better support my students with their specific learning targets. From lesson plans to engaging activities, TPT provides materials that can significantly enhance the learning environment for my students. Unfortunately, purchasing these resources can sometimes be costly, which is why I’m reaching out to kindly request a donation of TPT gift cards to help support our classroom.

Your generous contribution would allow me to purchase essential resources (cardstock, lamination sheets, and a pencil sharpener) that directly benefit my students' education. Every little bit helps, and I would be truly grateful for any support you can offer.

Thank you for considering my request. Your donation will make a meaningful difference in the educational experience of my first-grade students!
