Following up on the woman I’m following on Twitter, she tweeted something about DonorsChoose. Now I thought this was great since I just found out what it was through Saddle Up for Second Grade blog. I never realized how many teachers actually use DonorsChoose. But anyway, Kate tweeted Thank you @NEAFoundation for matching my @DonorsChoose grant today! Because of your support, my grant has now been fully funded!!! So what she did to make this happen was she posted on DonorsChoose website about her students, then the project, and the materials she needed. Below I posted a picture of the layout of this. 

Thankfully she had 9 donors and she was able to buy the materials for her classroom. Once again I really love this website. It really is a great tool, as we see first hand with this teacher using it and getting her materials for her students. It’s interesting to look and see what teachers need in their classrooms. I really enjoy looking on this website and being able to see how people help out others in need. Even if it’s just a $5 donation, that’s still $5 closer than before. Overall, I believe that this is a great website to utilize if you need materials in your classroom that your school is unable to afford.
