Light up Preschool!

Help me give my students light table accessories for a new learning experience.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Stonewall's classroom raised $472

My Project

My students are an imaginative and curious bunch. I was recently gifted a great light table but unfortunately it did not come with supplies. I will use these materials during free choice play to allow students to explore light and its many wonders.

Children learn best visually.

The lighted surface draws kids in and enhances the learning process. The light table makes the visuals the main feature of whatever lesson your child is learning. This also enhances the colors and provokes your little one's imagination.

These light table accessories with improve my practice by being able to provide instruction that is engaging and fun. My student and I would be most grateful for the opportunity to have new learning experiences.
