My Project

This is the sweetest prek4 class that I have had in years. They are super smart and funny, we are requesting many items to replace what we have used this school year. We are running out of tissues as we head into allergy season. Glue sticks are a must for us to keep being creative.

We have all been enjoying the matchbox sized cars this year and would like to have more of them to use in different centers.

They get to travel all over the place with the spaceships and buildings we create during center time.

Colored paper and treats help us some up coming events in our rooms.
