My students need an easel, a working dramatic play refrigerator and dress-up furniture.
FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Ramos's classroom raised $850

My Students
My students always look forward to dramatic play time. It's a time where they role play and get to be what they want to be. With this dramatic play refrigerator and furniture, students can emulate their parents and create the perfect home environments.
My four year old students experience school for the first time this year.
About 85% of my students come from low income households and 100% are students of color. School can be my students' safe haven, if only they have access to the right resources.
My Project
Research shows dramatic play in early childhood teaches self regulation that makes them better students by improving self control and interaction with peers. This project will teach them self regulation and improve play and social skills. It will also teach them how to work along with peers. Their success in prekindergarten will be just the beginning of their success in their elementary school career.
Be a part of our classroom!
Your donation will impact so many prekindergarten students in our community. Help make learning fun and interactive. Students face a variety of barriers at home and in their community. By helping them succeed, you're not only helping them build valuable skills that will last throughout their elementary school career, you're helping them imagine what's possible as community members. My students NEED your help!
Nearly all students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
