FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Reynolds's classroom raised $670

My Project

As an elementary Montessori guide practical life area is of great importance to our classroom environment. It gives children the freedom and independence they need to be held accountable and do good work. In this area is cooking, classroom chores, baking, and anything that has to do with life skills. Because of this, I have asked for real things and tools for this to be a successful part of our classroom.

This area is vital to the students and our classroom environment as they take on real-life tasks and responsibilities that will equip them for life.

The storage and other items asked for on this list are to establish and support a new Montessori guide and students as they embark on the journey of Montessori in the public school sector. These items will ensure that they get the finest education and continue to grow as peaceful human beings.
