My Project

I am a first-year teacher in a public school and want to create the most enriching environment. My students are unique and love to be interactive in the classroom. With your support, I can create documents that will last for years and help send home activities to help support their cognitive skills. The materials needed for a preschool classroom look different because students learn through play, and with COVID, many schools had to retire play clothes. Now we are trying to remove COVID from the schools, and with that, we need to bring imagination back into the classroom by providing play clothes. My students deserve to let their dreams grow, and I want to let them have as many opportunities as possible. The items you are helping me gain for my classroom are to help with gaining fine motor skills by having games they play that support that skill. They will be improving their writing skills while playing. Please help my students gain the basic needs to learn and grow in this new post-pandemic world.
