My Project

Give Little Learners a Great Start - Donate classroom furniture

The furniture will be used in the Block and Science areas to create a functional, comfortable, and engaging learning environment that supports children’s learning, and enhances overall well-being.

During free choice, children explore different areas daily as they to learn. For example, preschool engage in block play by exploring, experimenting, and creating structures. When they are done, they will clean up and organize the blocks in the shelves to create space for another activity. The furniture will safe a great purpose for the storage. The current furniture is worn out and some are broken. Getting new furniture would encourage good organization, storage and active learning by allowing the children to freely move around, participate in hands-on activities, and engage in interactive lessons without fear of furniture falling apart and a child getting hurt.

My preschoolers are special to because of their little way of doing things. They are in a critical period of rapid brain development, learning essential skills, and developing their unique personalities, social skills, and emotional awareness, all while exploring the world with boundless energy and curiosity. At the end of the day, with smiles on their faces they give you a hug and say goodbyes!
