My Students

My Pre-K students are around 3-4 years old and face various physical, psychological, and developmental challenges that typically-developing children do not. Each one of my students has an IEP or an Individualized Education Plan, that was written specifically for them to help meet their needs within the school building. Some of my students also receive additional support such as occupational therapy, physical therapy, speech therapy, etc. within the school building to meet additional needs they may have.

Although my students may take longer meeting typical developmental milestones or need additional support within the classroom, they are still children who enjoy laughing, talking, playing, and learning within their classroom, and I intend to give them the best classroom experience I possibly can!

One of my favorite things about working with children at this age is watching them learn through play. From building things to playing pretend/dress up and everything in between, preschool students learn through their experiences, and it is a joy to be able to teach them during such a fun time in their lives!

My Project

The jumbo and triangular-shaped crayons listed in this project would be extremely helpful in our classroom, as they are easier to grasp and use for our PreK students who do not have fully developed fine motor skills. We often start off the year using the jumbo crayons and try to transition to the average-sized crayons, if a student is showing progress with their fine motor skills. The triangular-shaped crayons would be an asset to increasing fine motor skills, as they aid students with using the correct pincher grasp for coloring/writing. So far this year, our school system has been learning virtually. We have sent home almost all of the crayons that we have for students to use during virtual learning.

Now as we are gearing up for their (hopeful) safe reentry into the classroom, we do not have the crayons needed to make individual kits for students.

That is why we need your help. If this project is funded, we will receive enough crayons to be able to provide for our classroom this year, and likely well into next year!
