Support Madison School's New Transitional Kindergarten Program!

Help me give my students classroom materials that support problem solving, imagination, literacy, and math.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Debi's classroom raised $502

This project is fully funded

My Project

I am developing a new Transitional Kindergarten (TK) program. Title I school in San Leandro, CA. My students are four and five year old multilingual learners who have a wide range of strengths and needs.

Thank you for your considering helping me provide my students with enriching literacy, math, and art materials!

The students will get to build, draw, and trace letters using these materials during activity centers. The math resources will provide them with opportunities to work on number recognition and counting. The wooden scoops and tongs will be used at the sensory table where students practice fine minor skills and spatial problem solving.
