Help me give my students building blocks, playground balls, and supplies for opportunities to explore individually and safely during these uncertain times.
My little ones are excited and ready to begin their Kindergarten year. For many, this will be the first experience they have in a formal learning environment.
Keeping my students SAFE during these times is of utmost importance.
Unfortunately many families avoided preschool due to the challenges COVID presented. The materials requested will hopefully make their transition to kindergarten smoothly. They will help with their intellectual, physical and social emotional health. The goal is to promote active learning while maintaining social distancing.
My Project
The materials selected for this project vary from education toys to supplies to containers and baggies. The one thing they all have in common is that they will be used to encourage INDIVIDUAL LEARNING in a WHOLE GROUP setting. I strive to encourage my kindergartners to both learn, explore and keep socially distanced.
Why not have fun while learning and keep safe?
Balls, nets, parachutes, and hoops will encourage physical fitness in a safe and socially distance manner.
Pencils, crayons, glue, and scissors will support their academic learning in all areas as well as increase their fine motor skills.
Plastic containers and bags will be used to keep each individuals materials separately. This will help to promote the social distancing within the classroom.
In addition to all these materials, I have added fidget toys to help keep my littles ones' hands busy while still being able to concentrate on the materials that I introduce to them. They will also be used to help them with an anxieties they may have about being in a classroom setting.
More than half of students from low‑income households
