I am sharing this great article with you on lesson planning:

Good news! This is the 4th year that the PTO is partnering with “School Store”: an online fundraiser that includes the option for family and friends to purchase Caring for Classrooms gift cards to support your classrooms. On Monday, October 7th, you will receive envelopes to send home with students, as well as an "educator" packet with information. Please show students the kick-off video listed on the packet, which can be found at schoolstore.com/video. Please show students the prize included in your packet, which they can earn by simply returning their envelope. Please promote the fundraiser with any communication or newsletters you send to parents.
