Our class has been able to make the most of indoor recess through the harsh winter with the help of your legos, jenga blocks and more. My students are thrilled to be able to have easily accessible color printing right in our own classroom and truly have benefitted from the other items such as magnetic bookshelves, dry erase markers, pencil sharpener, etc. \r\n Words cannot describe the looks on their faces watching me unbox each item with them, or putting together my new comfy reading chair. They were so excited to receive such unique items to make their classroom a safe space for everyone. As a classroom community, we are going to continue to utilize all of these special items to excel our learning for the remainder of the school year. My students continue to have a wonderful learning environment because of you all. \r\n Thank you to all of our donors who made this possible.
