My Students

My classroom is full of vibrant, smart, eager, and adorable 5 and 6 years old children! Most of my students are brand new to school, and I would love for them to have the best experience in Kindergarten in order to set them on a career of loving school and lifelong learning!

I would love to show them creative ways to learn by using building supplies and hands-on materials to help all my students learn math, design, social skills and so much more.

My Project

My classroom is in need of new building materials, we need new paint brushes, Magna-tiles and architect building blocks. Kindergarteners learn by playing! Blocks help support fine motor skills, social skills, creativity, shapes, 3d shapes, counting, colors and much more!

Kindergarten age students learn by playing!

Please support my classroom by donating brand new materials to my class. I am asking for new paint brushes, 1 boxes of Magna-tiles, and also 4 boxes of architectural building blocks.

These materials will be used every day by 22 students in class. These materials will help by keeping students engaged and active in school.
