Engaging Creative Little Minds

Help me give my students magnet letters, dry erase boards, LEGOs and art supplies to make learning fun again.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Tatebe-Miller's classroom raised $686

My Project

My students need magnet letters, dry erase boards, math manipulatives. Legos and art supplies to practice their creative thinking skills beyond paper and pencil.

Little minds are such creative thinkers when given the opportunity to explore through hands on materials.

The magnetic letters and dry erase boards will help my students in small group to segment, decode and blend words together so they can be confident in their reading and writing. The spinners and laminating pouches will be incorporated into centers to practice the skills we are learning in our curriculum through playful games. As for the Legos and art supplies, my students are unique individuals who like to use their imagination to build and draw pictures.

By donating to my project, you can help my second graders grow and learn to their potential, so they will be ready for whatever the future holds for them.
