My Project

This project is written to help provide my students with some fun and educational materials so they can continue to make growth over the summer. Giving my students items to learn with year round helps them by providing enrichment over the long summer months. Many families in my class struggle financially so these items would help keep summer fun with minimal expense to them.

"Early childhood education is the key to the betterment of society, "- Maria Montessori.

I am asking for science items such as bubbles and bug catchers. I also requested items for both sunny and rainy days to draw and write with including chalk and crayons with coloring books. There are several gross motor items in my project to get my kids out and moving from beach balls to punch balls to ball for throwing and kicking. In my project I requested fine motor and sensory toys to help feed their need to move and increase their fine motor ability. In order to help feed their cognitive needs I also asked for puzzles. I have already purchased buckets with my own money to send all the materials home in.
