My Project

My students possess an incredible resilience, often navigating lives far more challenging than I could ever fathom. For many, school is not just a place of learning, but a sanctuary, the only environment where they consistently feel safe and supported. Witnessing their eagerness and unwavering enthusiasm to learn fuels my passion as an educator. It inspires me to continuously seek out innovative programs and diverse materials that can enrich our curriculum, making the learning experience even more engaging and enjoyable for them. Their bright eyes and curious minds are a constant reminder of the profound impact a positive learning environment can have.

To further cultivate this positive environment, I am particularly focused on enhancing our gross motor time with a selection of active play materials.

While we are fortunate enough to go outside daily, our current collection of early childhood materials for our youngest students is quite limited. I strongly believe that providing these additional resources will not only promote physical development but also significantly contribute to a decrease in their anxiety about coming to school. Active play serves as a vital outlet for stress and helps build confidence, ultimately creating a more welcoming and less intimidating start to their day. The Balance & Play Tree Steps and the Walk-The-Wave Balance Beam are perfect for practice their balance. These materials is an investment in their holistic well-being and their continued love for learning. I know they would have so much fun chasing the bubbles from the Bubble Machine Automatic LED Lights Bubble Blower.
