My Students

I am a teacher in a Title I school. My classroom is made up of EC children and typically developing students. I have students who have special needs and behavior challenges. My classroom also has students who are learning English as a second language.

My students try so hard to learn new things!

They work hard every day to learn the new things that are needed for school. They love playing in centers outside as much as they do inside. They need help from everyone to make this happen.

My Project

We just got lucky and got our sand and water tables funded. Now the time has come to get some toys to explore with while we play in our new tables.

We need these toys to be able to enjoy our new tables.

The different toys will give us great chances to explore with numbers and letters also. Now since we got the tables we need toys to explore with. Playing in plain water and sand is no fun. Please help us get some toys to explore with and help us to enjoy our new tables more.

New tables need some new toys please. Will you help us please.
