Help me give my students the materials needed to support our everyday learning.

My Project

By the end of the year my students have gained so much independence and so many life skills. To help celebrate the end of the year we have an ABC countdown while still focusing on everyday lessons. We are in need of some materials to help our countdown run smoothly and to help us celebrate the last 26 days of PreK before we go off to Kindergarten.

All of the listed materials are items needed to help us countdown and learn the last 26 days of the PreK school year!

These students work so hard all year they deserve to celebrate their accomplishments the last month. The bubble machine is used on B Day so we can run and chase bubbles while exploring the garden. The flashlights are for Lights Out day where we work as a team to build tents and tells stories in the dark. The seat spots are for our T day where we will travel through tunnels and create obstacles to get through them.
