My Project

Embark on a journey with our "Super Safari" in Pre-K!

We're requesting your support to bring the vibrant world of zoos to our classroom.

Our learning adventure includes board books like "Night Night Zoo," "Zoo: Peek-a-Flap," and "The View at the Zoo," fostering early literacy.

To explore careers in wildlife care, we'll have dramatic play with stuffed animals like a lion, African wild dog, flamingo with babies, and a chameleon, along with a photo backdrop featuring zoo animals.

In math, a zoo counting toy and turtle number matching game will enhance numeracy skills, while an alligator letter matching game in our ABC center will aid in alphabet learning.

Your contribution will help our young explorers discover the wonders of zoology and animal care in an engaging, educational environment!
