Light Up Learning

Help me give my students light table materials to brighten their world of learning.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. McQueen's classroom raised $292

This project is fully funded

My Project

My students are Pre-K students in a Title I-funded school in the Bronx. Pre-K is their first introduction to the world of school and I love to show them all it has to offer!

I am hoping to get light table toys and materials to provide my students with hands-on opportunities to engage with the curriculum and brighten their world of learning.

My Pre-K classroom currently has a light table for exploration, but it would benefit from more toys and materials for the children to explore during Center Time. These materials would offer a unique opportunity for my students to explore the concepts of light, color, and transparency, while also enhancing their fine motor skills and creativity.

Thank you in advance for helping me provide a vibrant world of knowledge and imagination to my students!
