My Project

My young students love exploring our outside classroom. We are asking for some binoculars and magnifying glasses so that they can explore nature while they are outside. The buckets will be added to our digging area and used to collect the things that they find in our environment.

TK students need to be outside and not just stuck in a classroom.

That is why I have been focusing on building up our outdoor classroom. My little ones now have the choice to use the inside environment as well as the outside. Thank you so much for your support and help!

Mrs. Heather will only receive her materials if this project is fully funded by September 7.
