Help Me Find The Missing Piece...

My students need puzzles for logic and reasoning skills.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. P.'s classroom raised $192

This project is fully funded

My pre-k students would benefit immeasurably from puzzle in our classroom! I am a pre-kindergarten teacher in a city school in MD and the students I teach are 4 and 5 years old. 95% of the students in my class receive free or reduced lunch and many of the students live in undesirable homes and neighborhoods.

My students face many obstacles that may put them at a disadvantage while growing older. Some of the families do not have working parents and do not have the supplies necessary to learn and get ahead.

I have found puzzles that would make learning logic and reasoning fun for the students! These activities will help them learn their letters,letter sounds, and tolerance. The activities are hands-on and will allow students to work independently.

Your help can make it possible for these young students to gain the chance to get ahead in learning! At this age, every educational activity helps and makes a difference in their lives. Thank you for giving my students this opportunity!
