Building Blocks of Learning

Help me give my students the foundation of their education and allow them to build up their learning by giving them the basic tools that they will use daily in their kindergarten room.

My Project

My kindergarten students come to school eager to learn—and they're ready to dive right in, hands first! Please help them by giving them the things on this list, from crayons to markers and headphones. All these things are necessary to achieve the writing and listening skills in kindergarten. Just as kindergarten is the foundation for school, I would also like to give them opportunities to practice building their fine motor skills through hands-on activities such as LEGO building, writing, and pretend cooking. The items here will help keep their hands busy while learning, exploring all while building those fine motor skills!

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
