I teach kindergarten in a school of 650 students. Our school is 69% free and reduced lunches. I have 21 students and eight of my students are E.S.L. Nineteen out of my 21 students have free or reduced lunches. My classroom connects to an outside patio. I have some supplies to make a play area but I am in need of a few items. I have a sandbox and a few sand toys but I have no sand. We would also like to purchase some rainbow cones to set up a minature bowling activity. Although we have a playground 100 kindergartners have to share the same area. We are looking forward to having a private play area for just our class. This area will provide the space we need to run, jump and excercise. I appreciate any help you could provide in this project.
