My Project

Kindergarten is a time of discovery, collaboration and building foundational skills. In our classroom, small group instruction is an essential part of our day. Small group instruction helps my students develop their reading, math and social skills. Our classroom is lacking a dedicated space for these small group lessons.

By adding a small group table to our classroom, this will create a space for students to receive small group instruction and will allow me to work closely with them in a focused, supportive setting.

Your support will make a direct impact on my students learning experience. With a dedicated space for small group instruction, I can better meet their individual needs and foster a love for learning that will last a lifetime. Thank you for helping my kindergarten students shine!
