My Project

I teach 20, curious and energetic five year olds in the East Bay area of Northern California. All of my students come to school with different backgrounds and learning experiences, but each of them come to school ready to learn and explore the world around them. As their teacher I want to give them as many learning experiences as possible to help them grow and develop a love for learning.

I want to give my students an art drying rack, portable voice amplifier, steel drum, and thunder tube.

We do a lot of art in TK and often times don't have enough space to dry our art projects. The portable art dry rack would be so helpful. The portable voice amplifier would be so helpful when we are doing big body movement outside on the playground. This would allow for all of my students to hear me without having to strain my voice. I am also asking for a few musical instruments to add to my classroom for music time.

Thank you for reading my project and for considering donating to help bring these amazing resources to my students. Please share with anyone you think might want to donate to this project.
