Thanks to you, my very full classroom of kindergarteners now has a large enough rug for each of them to sit comfortably. It is the hub of our classroom and it adds a warmth to the room. \r\n\r\nAdditionally, my class absolutely loves the tiered prize cart full of amazing goodies! Having the prizes out and in labeled containers helps build excitement as they each have something they want to work towards earning by Friday afternoon. The cart is big enough to house all of the prizes but small enough to be tucked away when needed.

The STEM and inside recess activities have been a huge hit, already. We have faced excessive heat and have not been able to have regular recess outside. I feel great offering my students a variety of activities that naturally encourage sharing, communication and team work! There truly is something for everyone: magnetic blocks, dinosaurs, Legos, soft blocks and more! My class looks forward to anytime they can pull out an inside play activity. It is one of the major highlights of their day.

My students were so excited to see the new resources, and their faces truly lit up when they realized these materials were just for them. It felt like a holiday in our classroom!\r\n\r\nWe have already put these resources to use. During our independent reading time, a specific moment stood out: one of my most active students, who usually struggles to stay focused, settled right into their new seating and didn't look up from their book for twenty minutes. It was a beautiful sight. These materials aren't just \"stuff\"; they have created a more comfortable, inclusive environment where my students feel valued and ready to learn.\r\n\r\nOur next steps involve using these resources to facilitate more collaborative group work. Now that we have the proper setup, I am planning a series of peer-led science explorations where students can work together comfortably.

Being a teacher comes with a lot of responsibility that goes beyond the classroom.

I am forever grateful for this donation. Anytime a student asked where their headphones and snacks came from, I get to say from very generous people who wanted to make sure you had what you need. \r\n\r\nOur classroom has talked about the importance of giving back, we have completed two donation drives and our classroom being the top donor for the whole school.

The moment these books were processed, the young ladies you see in the photos were ready and waiting—each of them checked out two books immediately to dive into these new worlds!\r\n\r\nWe've already seen a shift in the library's atmosphere. This project has sparked high-energy conversations about the fantasy genre and what it means to be a hero. We talk about dragons and epic battles because these are the types of books the librarians read. As circulation among our older students had begun to dip earlier this year, this influx of fantastic stories couldn't have come at a better time.\r\n\r\nBy providing stories where these girls see their own strength, intelligence, and bravery reflected in epic landscapes, you haven't just given them a book—you've opened a door. You are helping us build lifelong readers who now know that there is always a place for them in the pages of a great adventure.

A grab and go creates less anxiety for students to feel singled out.\r\n\r\nThe granola bars, breakfast bars, applesauce pouches and fruit snacks are favorites in my room!
