My Project
I am teaching kindergarten with some ENL students this year. To help them thrive, I want to provide engaging and educational puzzles that will build important skills like problem-solving, fine motor coordination, and social interaction.
Puzzles are powerful tools that allow students to learn at their own pace, develop patience, and gain confidence as they complete each task.
Whether working on alphabet puzzles to build language skills or matching puzzles to improve memory, these activities promote independence and cognitive growth.
The puzzles I’m requesting will be specially selected to support their literacy skills, life skills, and fine motor skills in English and Spanish.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
