Let's Dress Up!

My students need a dress-up center for when they play.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Chekmayan's classroom raised $429

This project is fully funded

My Students

At my school, my 4 year old students are mixed backgrounds (White, many Polish, Spanish and African-American), and they are eager learners. They just need the tools to help them explore their world.

Many have hard working parents who desire their child to have an enriched Pre-K experience.

The students are well behaved and attentive. They are inquisitive and have a desire to learn. Words can't describe what a 4 year old is capable of. They are like a sponge at this age!

My Project

This neat and organized dress-up center has hooks, shelves and a mirror! My students will be able to find their dress-up outfit much easier and it will motivate them to want to dress up. The shelves will neatly display their accessories as well. This will enhance their dramatic play experience in so many ways. Now they can even see how they look in their chosen outfit. They will love seeing how they look dressed up. This will help them play the part! Adding this to our classroom will enable me to add more outfit choices as well with the added hooks and shelves.
