Your donations mean the world to both me and my students. Working at a title one school our families don't always have that means to get all the supplies their students need. This typically means that as the teacher I do my best to make up the difference. So your donations have helped significantly. \r\n\tThe donations you provided helped me get dry-erase markers in bulk, dry-erase paper to line my teacher's table, dry-erase post-its to help with learning phonics, a storage system for our supplies, and bulk dry-erase erasers. My students were so excited to get new markers and erasers. They also loved that they could now use the dry-erase paper to write on my teacher's table during small groups. All of these items have helped my students with their phonics skills. We use these supplies every day during our phonics lessons and small groups. My first graders go through dry-erase markers frequently due to them accidentally leaving the caps off or losing the caps. Overall, we are extremely appreciative of all you have done for us.
