My Project

In our preschool classroom, we have a wonderful collection of toys that help our students learn through play — but many of them need a proper home. Currently, our manipulatives are stored in mismatched bins, some of which are missing lids or are cracked from daily use. Having a set of uniform, durable containers with lids would make a big difference in keeping our space organized. With everything neatly stored, it will be easier to teach our students where items belong and encourage them to take part in cleanup routines.

In addition, we’re in need of some everyday essentials to help us maintain a clean and healthy environment.

Dish soap and sponges are needed to wash breakfast dishes, and hand soap helps us reinforce good hygiene habits with our little ones. Cleanliness is a top priority in our classroom, and these items help us stay on top of it.

Lastly, we’re hoping to replace our worn-out charging cords and plugs. The ones we currently have no longer charge efficiently, and updated ones would help us keep our devices running smoothly for teaching and communication.
