My Project

We are in need of new baskets for our toys. We work hard to teach our students responsibility to clean up after our play has ended. This has been challenging because we do not have enough baskets to organize these toys in.

Your donation to this project will help us have baskets that will help keep our classroom clean and organized.

New bugs and species in resin will allow my students to have hands-on science experiences in a safe manner.

The colorful floor markers will help us to learn and develop boundaries when we stand in line and transition from various points of the school. This project will help my students learn to organize in a variety of ways!
