My Project

My goal in pre-K is design experiences that are engaging, meaningful and fun! My students love to create!

Whether it’s building with blocks like magna tiles, drawing with markers, or constructing hop scotches outside on the playground; we are always looking for new and fun ways to use the materials around us.

This time of year our supplies are low. I would love to continue the quality learning until the very last day of school!! With your help my students can bring more color to the world by creating with the markers and sidewalk chalk and building with the magna tiles.
