My Project

Help me get project supplies for upcoming holidays for my students! My students love art and making things. Valentine's Day and St. Patrick's Day are fun to celebrate in Kindergarten. Students will use these materials to make Valentines for one another and share kindness in the classroom. Students will also be able to make St. Patrick's Day projects and get a special treat from a mischievous leprechaun. These holidays are often highlights of the school year. Help make these days memorable and full of fun for my students! My students could also use some new fidgets and prizes for our classroom prize box. Students love earning prizes for mastering new material and working hard on their assignments. Thank you for your help and support!
