If you could dream, what supplies would you provide for your classroom?
There are many different options to get materials, supplies, and even technology for your classroom. Below is a list of some you might like to try:
Pepsi Refresh Project: This site allows you to create a project, list your needs/wants/dreams, and others vote on what project should be funded. Pepsi has $1,300,000 available for donations and finalists will be chosen on October 1st.
DonorsChoose: This is an ongoing site for teachers to list project ideas and the supplies necessary to complete it. You can request technology or school supplies with this site by registering for an account and explaining your project.
Limeades for Learning: Limeades for Learning is a partnership that Sonic has with DonorsChoose. Again, just register for an account, list project ideas and needs, then share your ideas with others so they can vote on it. So far, Sonic has given over $255,000 this month. Voting closes on September 30, so hurry!
Digital Wish: Whereas the above listed sites can fund anything from technology to crayons, Digital Wish is only for technology projects. It's a great way to get a Flip camera, digital camera, or even a wireless slate. Just get an account, list your project ideas, and wait to get funded.
I hope to see lots of our teachers trying this out! Contact me for assistance in the type of technology to request.
