Kinders Need Comfortable Space!

My Project

Please help my kindergarten class by donating a set of shelves and cushions to help them be comfortable on the floor and by helping them have access to the supplies they need. There are a lot of things that take getting used to in kindergarten for first-time students. One of them is building up the stamina for sitting crisis-cross applesauce on the floor. The space in my classroom is available to have community circles and story time is on hard tile.

I love using community circles in my classroom to grow students’ sense of belonging.

Additionally, having the necessary storage for the books and supplies in my classroom will help my students access their learning more independently. Without the shelves, items will be stored in storage bins above a set of cupboards which students don't have access to independently. Please help me make my classroom a comfortable community where I can cultivate independent learning skills. Thank You!
