Mrs. Mette from Palestine IL is requesting educational kits & games through DonorsChoose, the most trusted classroom funding site for teachers.

Big Book, Big Words, Big Imagination!!!

My Students

In the heart of the country lies a small, rural community. Our community is an incorporated town in Illinois, with a population around 1,400. As a proud community role model, I am honored to say that I have forty bright, energetic, and caring Preschool students.

Preschool students at our school are eager to learn.

They continue to surprise and thrive in their educational journey. I am confident that these students will become life long learners, with a motivation to succeed.

My Project

Having a heavy duty magnetic write and wipe big book center will serve for a dual purpose. This shelf will not only store our classroom big books, but also serve as a mathematics/ phonics center.

Having a big book shelf will ensure the protection needed to keep our books from becoming damaged.

My students love to engage in big book stories. Using big books allows students to easily see the pictures, and follow print.

This book center severs as a dual purpose with a magnetic write and wipe board. Students can practice writing their name; use magnetic letters to form words; and count in rotation using magnetic numbers.

The posibilities are ENDLESS!
