My Project

In the formative years of early chilhood learning, a foundation is set for each successive year to beuild upon. We learn how to count, say and write our letters, and how to begin to explore our world. This is not always easy work and often repetiative, but with a little creativity we can foster a spark of ingenuity and that love for learning.

One of the ways in which we do this in kindergarten is through arts and crafts.

We take the tedious and mundane and make it pop with color and explode with fun. They are still learning the basics and what they need to be successful in school but now they are excited to take it home and share what they have learned with their world.

We need your help to continue to make this possible. The supplies needed to continue alowing our students to grow and learn through arts and crafts far exceeds the small budget allotted to us as teachers. We there need help in securing these items like construction paper.
