My Students

I have some very active and engaged learners in my Pre K class. My students are creative, thoughtful and full of questions! They absolutely love hands-on, active, engaging projects and challenges that allow them to think outside the box to find solutions! They come to school each day ready to try new things and take brave chances in order to grow both personally and academically. My students truly are my inspiration. My students love learning and they come in the class can't wait to hear what we have planned for that day.

My Project

Help me expose my students to engaging hands-on learning materials. The students will be able to explore with these activities during center time to broaden their knowledge in math and language and I will also be able to add these activities to my lesson plans for my small groups so that I can work with the students on shapes, numbers, letter sounds, etc. My students enjoy fun engaging activities during small group time. They look forward to small groups during the day. The materials I am requesting will help my students reach their full potential through interactive and hands-on learning. They will allow my students to have fun while learning as well. Help my students show their greatness through hands-on learning!

These materials will be used to give my students a chance to choose from a bigger variety of educational and fun hands-on activities.

My students will thrive and be well prepared to take that leap to the next grade level. Can you imagine being in a learning environment that had a vast amount of learning resources to help develop every skill and concept in the curriculum?

My students will be able to explore and learn at a much faster rate when using these materials. They will continue to thrive for years to come.
