My Project

Donate to my project and give my kids a tool for daily practice with calendar concepts, the alphabet, counting and more—and help the whole class build literacy skills together! The all-in-one center features over 200 cards designed especially for circle time—from calendar cards that teach and reinforce the days and months to fun picture cards that explore rhyming words, colors, shapes and more. Best of all, the center encourages lots of hands-on exploration—with fun-to-touch tactile letter cards, a “gumball machine” with gumball counters, a weather spinner with stick-on clothing pieces, and more! The pocket chart also has built-in storage pockets and sturdy grommets for hanging the Post-It chart paper, plus all the cards and pieces to complete each activity.
