My Students

My students are very intelligent and well behaved even though they are from low income families. They do not always have the supplies they need to be productive in school but they seem to overcome that obstacle. They range from 4K to 5k.

My Project

The supplies we have picked out will give the students ways to develop their fine motor skills better. But also help us to have more of the same manipulatives within the class for children to use. This will also help them to use fine motor skills to learn letters, numbers and science through play dough and puzzles. Through the puzzles the children will learn how to manipulate an object to fit within a parameter. The play dough not only helps with fine motor but will help with letters as well thru play.
