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

Playground time can be an exciting time for all the children. We have four kindergarten classes at one time on the playground each class being active. We try very hard to stay separated as much as possible on the playground. With that being said, we need additional supplies and activities for the children to use. The children need more items to run around with and play with besides being on the playground equipment. The more activities the children are able to be engaged with enhances outside time. Children may learn will be able to learn many new games and learn to share by playing with different types of materials. Children may embrace new ways to have fun with additional outside toys.
