My Project

I'm a VPK teacher at a Title I school, where many of my students face challenges outside the classroom but come to school each day eager to learn and grow. I love how imaginative, curious, and full of energy my Pre-K students are.

Every day, they dive into learning with excitement and wonder.

The materials I’m requesting will help support that natural love of learning in meaningful ways. Fine motor tools will help strengthen their hands for writing and self-help skills. Art materials will give them opportunities to express their thoughts, feelings, and creativity through painting and hands-on projects. Dramatic play items will encourage social development, storytelling, and role-playing as they learn to collaborate and communicate with their peers. These resources will make our learning centers more engaging and enriching for every child.
