My Project

Pre-K students are energetic, curious, and ready to learn through hands-on exploration! As we dive into our "Balls" unit, we want to give our students the chance to explore the science of movement and motion through play. We're asking for bouncy ball kits for each of our Pre-K classrooms to encourage active learning, build motor skills, and spark discovery.

Each Pre-K classroom will receive a bouncy ball kit that includes a variety of sizes, textures, and materials.

These kits will help students compare how different balls bounce, roll, and move. The kits will also support group play, scientific inquiry, and gross motor development.
