My Project

Hello,

I have requested some cleaning supplies and manipulatives.

Pre-k can be very germ-y. The children touch and put everything in their mouths which is to be expected, but in order to avoid sickness and maintain a clean environment, we need cleaning supplies such as disinfecting wipes for tables and surfaces and sprays for our toys.

I have also requested manipulatives. This is a brand-new classroom and while we received some manipulatives, we didn't receive nearly enough to be able conduct whole groups. Students at this age are more visual learners so having manipulatives they can each hold, touch and see makes whole groups much more effective.

These students are truly a pleasure to have in class, a great bunch of kids. Anything and everything that can be given to them to provide the most effective education is worth it. They are our future.
