PreK Upgrade

Help me give my students various opportunities to improve on their fine motor skills and creative thinking through intentional play and hands-on activities.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Roll's classroom raised $912

My Project

Our school is located in Northeast of DC and one of the Title I schools in the district. A large percentage of our school population is homeless, and our students face different challenges both inside and outside of our classrooms. Despite these challenges, they exude a lot of energy for learning and discovery!

As a teacher in this school for six years, my classroom is in need of upgrade and replenishment of essential materials that will tremendously support and enrich our students’ academic experience.

These materials are effective in getting them more engaged in the lesson while still having fun in an educational way. The students love playing with play dough and we intend to enrich this experience by inserting teaching moments regarding letters (e.g. asking them to create letters/numbers using play dough). The fidget toys will be used as tools in helping students when they need to regulate and control their strong emotions and feelings.

A lot of the materials requested will be used in our dramatic play and blocks centers. Through these materials, the students will experience different ways of learning opportunity, they don't only practice their fine motor skills and social emotional development but also touching the literacy and math related objectives.
