Celebrate Black Teachers and Students

This project is part of the Black History Month celebration because it supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of the students are Black.

My Project

These items will be loved and used often. Children love using items to build and become excited seeing new manipulatives in the classroom.

Fine motor skills are being developed when using your hands, and for preschoolers, giving them the tools needed to help small muscles is such a good experience for them.

The light table, matching games, and building set will keep them busy working and making new friends. As a preschool teacher seeing children using their fine motor, cognitive and large muscles at work let's me know I am on the right track to creating a classroom of thinkers.
