Learning Games!

My students need learning games to help them continue to practice the skills they have learned. Stocking our classroom with new ABC games, and building games can help sharper our skills.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Smith's classroom raised $378

This project is fully funded

My Students

Help my kindergarten students take control of their learning! New supplies can open a whole new world for them. My students come from a high poverty area and always have the supplies needed at home. Contributing to our classroom will give these superstar learners a chance to enter a world of learning, exploring and make believe.

We believe in our classroom that learning games can help us with our social skills, imagination and thinking.

Help us enter a world of play with these new games.

Having a wide range of games to choose from, can spark our interest, ignite our fire, and enhance our knowledge and help us learn to work and play together.

My Project

These games will stock our classroom shelves. They will help us practice our skills that we have worked hard to learn all year long. THE ABC games will help us build words, practice our letter sounds and show all we have learned in Kindergarten. We're ready for first grade but not yet - we're still learning and growing and need to practice our skills. Help us with our ABCs and our 123's won't you please! We can't wait to tell our moms and dad's that we will soon be Kinder grads. The games will help us sharpen our skills.
