My Students

My three-year-old Head Start students are fun and full of energy. My students are enjoying all the in-person, hands-on learning fun. My students love to read, sing, dance, and learn together. We have fun in the gym, outdoors and in our school garden. Our favorite is learning through play!

My Project

We don't want to let the rain stop us from getting outside to work or play. No matter how wet the weather, we will be able to get outside to the playground or garden with this project. My students can explore weather change first hand and what happens when objects get slippery. When we are finished we can easily hang all our wet gear on the rolling cart.

It's no longer rain, rain, go away.

With this project, we can stomp in puddles and slide on wet slides while staying warm and dry underneath. So much movement and science can be done in the rain. Thanks for helping support our play, no matter the weather.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
