My Project

I am seeking funding to provide a variety of art supplies, STEM toys, and books that will allow my students to learn in ways that are meaningful, fun, and engaging. With your support, we can provide these little learners with the foundation they need to succeed both academically and creatively.

Art Supplies for Creative Expression:

Art is a powerful tool for young learners to express themselves and develop fine motor skills. With the right materials, my students can create masterpieces that showcase their imagination. Your donation will help provide: markers, and colored pencils.

STEM Toys for Exploration and Problem Solving:

STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math) toys ignite curiosity and develop critical thinking skills. By introducing STEM toys into our classroom, my students will begin to explore concepts of engineering, physics, and technology in an age-appropriate and fun way. These toys will allow them to problem-solve, work as a team, and develop their reasoning abilities. Items we hope to provide include building blocks and construction sets.

Books to Spark Imagination and Literacy:

Reading is the cornerstone of education, and in kindergarten, we lay the foundation for a lifelong love of books. To foster a love for reading and improve literacy skills, we need a diverse library filled with engaging, age-appropriate books.
