My Project

The products I have selected will help me to teach my students in a small group setting. I have found that students learn best through hands on materials. I like to have fun and play with my Kinders all while they are leaning.

There are many students in my class that speak another language.

I find it easier to teach them English by using pictures. I also like to play games with the children, and they like to play these games as well. While they are playing these games they are also learning how to take turns and be kind to each other.

We would all be ver appreciative of any donation that you are willing to give!
