My Project

Thank you so much for considering our project. We can’t wait to use all of these items throughout the school year.

Our little learners love to explore real-life science, including a butterfly habitat, ant farm, and more!

Help us bring classic stories to life, like Itsy Bitsy Spider, and theme-related felt boards (ocean, transportation, etc.)These items will create opportunities for students between the ages of three to five observe, write, and create stories with their hands.

It’s a well-known fact that pre-k students learn through doing. These items will be used to enhance our curriculum and add more hands-on exploration, and increase their interest in everyday activities!
