Exploratory Learning for Preschoolers with Special Needs

Help me give my students the opportunity to play and learn at preschool!

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Kress's classroom raised $990

This project is fully funded

My Project

Many of my students were not able to interact with others due to medical needs or other complications that arose due to the pandemic. They missed out on a lot of social-emotional learning during some of the most crucial years of learning.

My students could benefit from these materials by helping develop gross and fine motor skills, learning to share toys, learning to develop a love for reading, and soo much more.

If this project is funded, my students will have more opportunities for success in their future. The items in this project will help create a good foundation for life-long learning.
