My Project

Imagine a school where learning is connected to the lives of students and their community.

A place where students are encouraged to wonder and direct their own learning by asking questions, investigating, and collaborating to create meaning.

A place where instruction and curriculum cultivate student interest and strengths.

I have been working with preschoolers and their families for almost 30 years. My classroom is in great need of some "sprucing up" to include a real-life kitchen set designed especially for children AND an innovative light table. These materials will guarantee a great beginning to our school year!
