Our classroom is made up of a diverse group of learners from ages 4-6 in the urban community of Worcester, MA. Some children have disabilities and some are typically developing. We have a diverse group of learners from various cultural backgrounds and countries. Many of the students are English Language Learners (ELL). We are located in a high-poverty area and all children receive free meals. The early years of schooling are the most important for future success in school! Please consider donating to our little ones.

My Project
Research shows young children learn through play and repetition. I make most of my centers on my computer using the MA state frameworks to create them. The thing is, teachers go through materials fast and they are expensive!
We pay for these supplies ourselves, and over time the costs add up.
We need help with the donations of ink (for printing activities), laminating sheets (for making them last year after year), Velcro (for making the games interactive and fun for the kids)--and the Astrobright paper makes the activities fun and colorful! The paper also saves colored ink by printing some activities in black and white.
Please consider donating these supplies to our special kiddos. We will send photos of completed projects and the children enjoying them first-hand. We appreciate all of your support!
