D is for Dexterity!

My students need supplies, such as 2 Draw & Write Touch Boards, themed puzzles, and building materials to enhance their fine motor skills.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Dilbeck's classroom raised $550

My Students

My students are still building the small muscles in their little hands so that they can learn how to hold a pencil correctly and even how to color within the lines.

I teach a group of 20 four year olds each morning and 20 four year olds each afternoon.

We are very lucky to be at a new school, this is just our second year to be open. However, that also means that we haven't had a lot of time to stock up on supplies.

My Project

With these small hands on objects that the students can put together and take apart over and over again, they will build dexterity in their hands. This skill is so important when learning how to write and even color. Also the magnetic puzzles that they can manipulate work on teaching them a skill such as sorting while also working on fine motor skills.

These children deserve to have as many hands on opportunities as I can provide them with.

Your donations will make a difference to not only the 40 four year olds that I have in class this year but to the many 4 year olds that I will teach in the future.
