My Project

I’m excited to create a more organized learning environment for my wonderful preschoolers this year! While teaching preschool means messes are part of the journey, it’s really about creating controlled chaos that enhances my students’ experiences and sparks their creativity. This will be my second year supporting a diverse group of children—with and without disabilities—and providing essential services tailored to their needs. I’m eager to build on the organizational system I established last year to bring even more structure and support to our classroom.

With your help, we can design inviting, organized spaces that encourage independence, creativity, and joyful learning—giving every child the best possible start.

I am asking for cubby storage bins, plastic baskets, drawer organizers, mesh bags and other items for storage/organization. These items will be used to organize materials and supplies and make them accessible to all students. This will foster independent and responsibility. The Magnetic LED STEM Center and dress up tree will be used for soft starts in the morning as well as for small group center time.
