Complete The Puzzle

My students need multiple puzzles to enhance their math, fine motor, and social skills.

You're the missing piece to our puzzles. I teach Kindergarten in a highly impoverished multicultural school. Our school does not have a playground, gymnasium, common area or activities center.

The classroom is the place where my students have opportunities and learning experiences that don't present themselves most other places in their lives. The students in my class are faced with a limited supply of age-appropriate activities in school and out of school. Kindergarten is a crucial stage of development for all children, especially when many of them have not had prior educational or social experiences.

Supplying our classroom with an assortment of puzzles will bring incredible joy and amazement to my students. Puzzles provide children with excellent opportunities of fun and learning.

Through your kindness and generosity, you will be enhancing the experiences of many deserving children. You will help grow math skills through their understanding of spatial relations and geometry. You will enhance their social skills by providing opportunities to share and work together. You will help students develop and maintain necessary fine motor skills. Please help me to help make my students learning experiences the best that they can be.
