Thank You, Donors Choose!!

Dear Families,

I have some super exciting news to share!

First, I will give you a little background information. Have you heard of Donors Choose? It's amazing website that connects teachers and generous donors, so that teachers can fulfill needs they have in their classroom. I discovered this amazing website from other teachers I know.

I decided to seek funding for 2 classroom iPods. I had never posted a project before and I was hopefully optimistic that I would be able to get this project funded. To my surprise, in just a few short weeks, I was able to get funding for the 2 iPods due to MANY generous donations from kind donors that support education.

I'm so thankful to Donors Choose and the donors for bringing these amazing tools into our classroom!

In the next few weeks, students will be spending time putting a "Thank You" package together for our donors. Also, I will be setting up the new iPods we just received...so lucky!

Pillows or Cushions

Dear Families,

In class we have reading spots for independent reading. I invited students to bring in a small pillow or cushion that will fit on their seat to use for the day, as well as during independent reading. It should be small enough to fit on their chair and it will stay in the classroom throughout the school year. Students will be able to take them home at the end of the school year. 

If your child would like to bring one in, he/she may do so beginning tomorrow. Please feel free to email me  with any questions you may have. 

Thank you,

Mrs. Moore
