My Project

My students are an eclectic, multi-age bunch who are embracing a Montessori philosophy in a public school setting. Most days, we spend an extra amount of time outside, whether it be for extra free play, or for an academic presentation.

But some days, the weather doesn’t cooperate, and they are bundles of energy, stuck inside all day.

These materials would continue to stimulate them, but give their brains the much needed break from their daily work and expectations. We are thankful for any donation you are willing and able to give.
