Enhancing Creative Learning Spaces

Help me give my students jumbo pencils, primary journals, crayons, and flexible seating! These resources together will create a supportive and engaging learning environment.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Gabrielli's classroom raised $893

My Project

Jumbo pencils, primary journals, and crayons will make a significant difference for my students by providing the tools they need to develop essential skills. Jumbo pencils are perfect for little hands, making it easier for students to learn proper grip and control, which is crucial for handwriting. Primary journals offer a structured space for young learners to practice writing, combining lined pages for text with blank areas for drawing, which encourages both literacy and creativity. Crayons allow students to express themselves artistically, boosting their fine motor skills and helping them connect with their learning in a colorful and engaging way. Flexible seating like wobble cushions keeps students comfortable and engaged, creating a dynamic environment that makes learning both effective and enjoyable. Together, these tools support foundational learning in a way that is both effective and enjoyable.
