My Project

Thank you for taking the time to stop and consider donating to my amazing pre-kindergarten classroom. For this project, I am asking for donations to help me build an outside classroom and space for my pre-k class.

With easels shaped like flowers, fun games to help strengthen memory and problem solving skills, we will have a great start to making our outdoor pre-k classroom.

Currently at our school, we have a courtyard that we have permission to add outdoor supplies to. With the stencils, we will paint multiple games onto the concrete for everyday use.

We will use the shovels to dig with in both the dirt and in sand. This will encourage the students to explore and develop motor skills.

The multiple sets of cones will be used in a variety of ways. From setting boundaries to setting goals. Students also love to simply play with the cones and find ways to stack them.

Thank you for your time and consideration. My class and I appreciate you.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
