PreK Center Time

Help me give my students center time materials. By funding this project, I will be able to purchase digital materials to print/create and supplement with the additional ELA and math toys chosen here.

My Project

All of the students in my classroom are unique and learn in various ways. Given that I have a multi-age classroom with and without disabilities, a variety of motivating materials are crucial to differentiated instruction.

The materials chosen for my classroom are needed to provide more early learning experiences in a fun way while increasing engagement and attention to tasks.

The TPT giftcard will allow me to purchase and create hand-on curriculum based materials for centers. The playdoh tools will assist students in developing hand strength which is necessary for writing in the future. The hands on manipulatives will assist students with early math skills. The sand will provide an alternative way for those children whose needs require a different way to learn pre-writing strokes. These tools will help them to reach their learning goals outlined in their IEPs while meeting their individual needs simultaneously. The items I have chosen for my project are critical to developing the milestones necessary for future academic success.

With the help from generous donors, this project will allow the students to develop independence, increase motivation, improve attention to-task, develop fine motor strength, and reach other essential milestones that they may be delayed in.
