Special Day Class Needs

My Project

Our classroom is an SDC, which provides learning opportunities for many different needs. The materials in this project provide educational opportunities for the different levels we have in our room.

We are a new program that has specific needs, and these materials will enhance our program.

The students range from preschool to 6th grade and have learning differences. We tend to do many hands-on activities including file folder games, art, and fine motor activities,

In this specific DonorsChoose project, we are looking for supplies and a few activities to help enhance our learning. It would help us immensely to get these supplies. The preschool students in our class need fine and gross motor opportunities. The water/sand table will address the motor needs. In addition, the watercolors will be used for a variety of art projects. Each student in the class participates in art activities daily.
