Making Literacy, Math & Personal Connections in Kindergarten Happen!

Help me give my students some extra fun supplies & manipulatives to use during our full day kindergarten program. I also make them a personalized 12x18 memory book for each child, so the paper will come in handy!

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Temple's classroom raised $321

This project is fully funded

My Project

The materials will help us in our full day program! All the paper will help enhance their personalized memory book I make for each child...each book is over 25 pages and filled with approx 100 photographs of that child! This is my big project every year and the colored paper will TOTALLY make this project over the top!

And the other supplies will help me make connections to the kids in our literacy, math and SEL lessons!

The literacy games will help my multi-language learners. The math manipulatives will help with our math center activities and the dolls will promote sharing during our indoor recess days!
