A Space for Us

Help me give my students a space to call their own. Cubbies allow PreK children to be self sufficient and independent in the classroom.

My Students

My students are a dynamic mix of special needs and typical children who thrive in our child-centered classroom. With varying ages of three to five, the levels and activities that we do have are greatly varied and flexible. My children come from diverse backgrounds and the majority are from low-income families who support the education of their child but don't always have great resources at home. Our school goes out of its way to provide us with everything we need to keep our programs at their best. We have a quality curriculum as well as quality materials.

My Project

My students are a dynamic group of 3 and young 4's who are experiencing school for the first time. They need a place to put their belonging that is accessible to them. They love to bring their security objects, such as blankets and special stuffed animals to school for when they have a tough day. These cubbies will give them a place to keep these objects safe from curious hands.

PreK is an awesome opportunity for children to learn how to navigate school.

My students are just learning how to be at school, organize their materials, and be ready to learn. Cubbies will help them have a productive transition into the classroom each morning.
