My Project

Pre-school students learn a lot through playing! They need to work on fine motor skills, social emotional behavior, as well as pre-academics like letters and sounds and counting. They enjoy exploring new things and get so excited when we get something new for them to play with.

These materials will help my students have a place to dry their art work by themselves, which helps them become more independent.

I asked for more storage bins to organize learning materials for them to grab and play with during free play. They love the dramatic play area also to play with their friends, and can use some more play foods to help them pretend play with many different scenarios like grocery store or cooking dinner.
