Crafting and Communicating

Help me give my students a midyear restock of supplies for communication books and projects.

My Project

Please help me restock classroom essentials to finish the school year strong. We are rapidly using our beginning of the year supply of Velcro, cardstock, lamination pouches, and comb binding spines.

These items are crucial for creating visual supports for our preschool special education students.

We are constantly creating new visual cues, visual schedules, props/pieces to act out songs and stories, and communication books.

We would also love a mid-year restock of Kleenex, magnets, and theme stickers so that we can keep our students comfortable and creative as they build their language skills through hands-on learning.

Finally, I'm requesting clip-on name tags to create name tags for our dramatic play center. This year, our 3-5 year olds are enjoying playing pretend during center time, but they are struggling to share toys and play cooperatively. I'm hoping that creating name tags with picture symbols for roles like "doctor" and "patient" will help them play more collaboratively.
