My Students

My students are a small group of children who crave education in a number of ways. They work twice as hard as the average child in order to achieve similar goals but it does not stop them from doing so. They come to school every day in order to gain all that they can from our program and we look forward to providing it for them.

Early Childhood Education sets in motion a variety of journeys for each child and for these children, and we aim to make each journey successful because that's what we do!

We are from a small community with a big heart. Although we try to give our children what they need, we are not able to provide it all.

My Project

The karaoke machine that we are requesting will meet the needs of our current students and many others in the future. Children with special needs benefit from motivators in speaking loudly as well as clearly in order to interact confidently with others. This fun and motivating piece of equipment will allow for the children to not only perform their favorite songs and feel like they are on top of the world but articulate the words for ALL to hear.

As we MOTIVATE OUR CHILDREN, they GROW in so many ways BEYOND OUR EXPECTATIONS.

When we provide tools that can be used to motivate children to not only speak more but to speak loud enough to transmit into a microphone, we are helping them to build the confidence to socially interact with their peers and teachers.

Communication provides children with the opportunity to express their wants and needs, allowing them to continuously grow throughout their educational journey. This karaoke machine, will help to BUILD CONFIDENCE, INSPIRE ARTICULATION, and give our children an OUTLET TO COMMUNICATE at any point in time that they need.
