My Project

I love my sweet school and students, but unfortunately our school does not currently have a playground. My kindergarten students desperately need supplies and activities to play with outside. I have bubbles and sidewalk chalk for them, but we need more activities to do, specifically to help with gross motor movement development. With the active play kits, hopscotch puzzle mats, ring toss game, and wing and catch cup sets, we will be able to practice taking turns and learn how to share and negotiate. I believe that social emotional growth and health is crucial at this age. Thank you so much for your support!
