At my school, my three and four-year-old students are of mixed backgrounds (White, including many Polish, Spanish and African-American), and they are eager learners. They just need the tools to help them explore their world.
Many have hardworking parents who desire their children have an enriched Pre-K experience.
The students are well behaved and attentive. They are inquisitive and have a desire to learn. Words can't describe what a three/four-year-old is capable of. They are like sponges at this age! Their brains absorb everything.
My Project
My students need puzzles to help with their problem solving skills! They really enjoy doing puzzles together. The fire truck puzzle will enhance our transportation unit. The children of the world puzzle will reinforce different cultures.
They need math games to reinforce counting skills and number recognition.
The sequence number puzzles will reinforce numbers and counting. The peg boards and counting cars will be lots of fun.
My students need recess materials for active outdoor play. The hoop toss game will improve eye/hand coordination. This outdoor kit which includes balls and jump ropes will keep them busy. These materials will get them moving!
More than half of students from low‑income households
