My Project

Our TK students are the youngest learners in elementary school. As they begin their educational journey, it is essential that we provide them with a well-rounded experience that supports their academic and social-emotional growth. We want our students to fall in love with learning so that they can become lifelong learners. Our students have amazing imaginations. They are naturally curious and they are enthusiastic about learning. We hope to provide them with the materials needed to foster their growth in our classroom! Their creativity and compassion are truly inspiring!

The drying rack/art easel will provide students with a space to paint and express themselves through art.

In a shared classroom, this space saving piece of furniture is an essential, so that our students have room to create and still move freely around the room! The light table will allow students to engage with different concepts through play. It creates such a fun learning space for our students and the possibilities are endless! Our students also love dramatic play, and it is so good for their development and social emotional growth. The baby stroller and high chair can help them fully engage in imaginative play and make our classroom an inviting space where play and fun happen!
