FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Jill's classroom raised $443

My Project

I love teaching young learners in Early Childhood Special Education. It is my passion to support and teach them classroom readiness skills.

A circle time carpet will help my students learn how to sit alongside their peers while engaging in learning activities including story time, dancing and music.

As my students are sitting together, they are learning behaviors that will support them during Inclusion time where they will be participating amongst their General Education peers.

Thank you for your donation in helping my children learn how to sit together as a learning community.
