My Project

Our class is in need of some basic classroom supplies. I am requesting science books, a composter, a laundry kit for dramatic play, alphabet and number puzzles, letter stamps, and a shape puzzle.

My students are an amazing group of children.

They are curious, inquisitive, and bright. Preschool teachers go through so many supplies in a school year, since the children are still learning how to use school supplies. I want to make sure they have all the materials they need to thrive in school!

These materials will help our children develop their literacy skills, math skills, and vocabulary. The compost kit and science books will help children understand how we can help our Earth through our Recycling study.

We are an urban district where the majority of our students qualify for free or reduced lunch. As a teacher in a low-income district, we often depend on the community, organizations, and people like yourself to support our students in getting the materials we need.

I am so thankful for your support!

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
