Help me give my students a Marble Run, Disinfecting Wipes, Lincoln Logs, and a Balance Board for the opportunity to learn by connecting to natural materials.

Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month
This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because
it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.
My Project
As a PreK-educator serving students who aren't always able to connect to their communities, I am always trying to extend their learning and provide them with materials that connect them to their world.
With these items, children will be able to connect with natural materials, real-life manipulatives in dramatic play, and be able to move their bodies in creative ways with a balance board and engage in literacy and math skills that will benefit them throughout their lives.
My students are creative and curious and constantly seeking to extend their own learning. These materials will promote a clean learning environment, the ability to engage with the natural world and promote connectedness to their community and world to set these little learners up for success.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
