Get Our Hands on Learning!

My students need manipulatives to create a more hands-on learning environment.

My Students

As a teacher in a low-income school district, my students are faced with several challenges both in and out of the classroom. Despite the many challenges they face, I am looking to keep things simple and provide my students with creative and meaningful learning experiences.

My students are creative, clever and very spontaneous.

They like to move and love lots of positive attention. Many of them receive a free lunch based on their socioeconomic status. These things may prevent them from getting ahead early in life and may not provide them with the life experiences many of us see as "typical". From the minute they walk in the door of my classroom I focus on their potential and growth while they are with me. I may not be able to control their home lives, however, I can certainly control their experience during the school day. By doing this in a creative and positive way, I am hopeful to inspire even our earliest learners to continue on a path of academic excellence.

My Project

My students need versatile manipulatives to create a hands-on learning environment. I'm asking for kinetic sand, playdough (and playdough tools), alphabet mats, animal counters, dice, and snap-together letter cubes. The items I requested can be used across multiple subjects and for a variety of activities. They can be used to create numbers, letters, shapes, or words. They can also be used as centers for them to explore the materials and let their creativity shine!

Your generous donation to our kindergarten classroom will help build successful students.

These young learners can become more engaged in their learning by participating in activities with these manipulatives both in large and small groups. My kinders look forward to your donation to their futures!
