My Project

Kindergarten is such a special time of learning and discovery. Oftentimes, students come into the classroom with varied knowledge and experiences. It is my goal to fill my classroom with materials that will provide rich and engaging learning opportunities for each and every one of them.

Whether they are engaging in sensory play, dramatic play, building with blocks, or simply using art materials to express themselves, littles gain so much from participating in play-based learning.

These materials will reach across content areas, with books about plants and bees, and a butterfly garden. Your donation will help my students learn about the different needs of these organisms and allow them to play an active part in helping them to grow and thrive.
