My Project

Hello,

We are a classroom for PreK Special Education.

Our classroom is in need of Stem Learning Toys. The students have a range of disabilities which is why they are unable to attend in a General Education Classroom. Unfortunately, our classroom is underfunded as most of our funding goes towards the needs of the children. So we are unable to obtain the fun learning toys that our children are interested in. All of our current puzzles and stem toys are missing pieces or are broke. These items would give our children stem toys and puzzles which actually work.

Thank you for helping our children learn and grow.

Mrs. Botkin Parkway Early Childhood Center Grades PreK-2
