Special Snacks Needed for Our EC/Pre-K Students!

My students need snacks in class while working on their communication skills and self-help skills.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Kimbrough's classroom raised $272

This project is fully funded

My Students

My students are Pre-K/EC and their age ranges from 3-5. The class is blended with children with different types of special needs (Autism, Developmental Delays, fine and gross motor delays, Speech Delay, and other Disorders). All of the students have some type of language and communication deficits. The students have difficulty understanding language and communicating their wants and needs. We use several augmentative communication devices, sign language to communicate, and picture symbols.

The school is a Title l school with 100% of the students on free and reduced-price lunch.

Most of the parents are single parents, which leaves little money to help with materials needed in the classroom.

My Project

This donation of snacks to our Pre-K students with special needs will improve the classroom in many ways. Meal time is an important part of our daily schedule because we are able to really focus on the students' communication delays. The students in this class are still learning to use their words with pictures, technology, and sign language, to ask for their wants and needs. We use feeding time to work on this skill. Unfortunately, my class is lacking funding to provide snacks for our most special learners, because of the budget cuts in North Carolina Early Childhood. Pre-K students should be having fun learning, and should not be worrying about whether they will have snacks. Also, many of our students are bussed from the other side of the city to come to our special program. Some of the students are getting onto the bus as early as 6 am. It is a very long day for these young 3-5-year-olds, and they get really hungry and upset. Please help me reach the students by making sure they have a snack every day.
