Donors Choose!

For those of you who have not stumbled onto this magical website yet, you should do it now!  In an effort to make this short and sweet to ensure the Nickerson's timely arrival at a NYE party in Columbus, I'm just going to say that in the past few months, I have been able to get almost $500.00 worth of books for my Reading/Writing Workshops and most recently (as of a few minutes ago) got a grant for a Flip camera and tripod funded!  Yay!  I can't wait to make movies with my students!  Looks like I'll be buying fun movie-editing software ASAP!  Anyway, perhaps after the new year I will sit down and write a respectable post about the ins and outs of DonorsChoose.  I did an inservice at my elementary school not too long ago... so I should have plenty of information to share with you readily available as a pdf as well!  Happy 2011!

  1. I have gotten desks and books from Donors Choose. It is a great program but they have lots of rules. Congrats on your new camera!!!My daughter just lent me her flip camera (she has two!) I am excited to try videoing my class for the first time! I don't know anything about what software to buy. If you could give advice/do a post on that in the future that would be helpful. hAPPY nEW yEAR. Christine

  2. Thank you! I just realized that my DonorsChoose file is on my work computer. I go back tomorrow, so I will make sure to write the detailed post sometime this week. I'll also include a post about the software I'm thinking about buying! Happy 2011!
