A Fun Way to Learn Alphabet and Numbers

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Xu's classroom raised $358

My Project

Having the Magnetic Learning Center and the magnetic pieces in the classroom, my 12 wonderful two-year-old students will be attracted to learn the upper case and lower case alphabet and the numbers. One of the goals for this project is to help the children get familiar with the alphabet and the numbers through hands-on experience by clicking and sticking the pieces on the board.

Another goal is expanding the students' attention spans.

Since they are toddlers, their attention spans are relatively shorter than the older students; they need something special, like the magnetic board, to gain their attention and explore.

In addition, the toddlers are mostly not potty trained yet, so they wear diapers. I have been using my own money to buy the diapers and the baby wipes to help out some parents, so it would be great if I could get some help from society.
