My Project

These materials will be used in our common play area where over 80 students have access to these materials. We are a new building and have limited large building materials. We also have a new light table and would love more manipulatives to use for learning and explorations.

The students using these materials are both general ed and special ed preschoolers.

We would love to increase the options for explorations, gross motor and sensory experience for our preschool community.

These materials will allow our to make sure students have ample materials and opportunities to engage in inclusive play throughout the school day.
