My Project

The first few years of a child's life are critical for their overall growth and development, and research shows that 90% of their brain development occurs before the age of five. As an educator, I am passionate about providing my students with the best possible foundation for their future. By helping them develop spatial awareness, gross motor skills, memory development, and problem-solving skills, I am helping them enhance their focus, concentration, patience, and physical strength. These activities are crucial for their growth and will enable them to become successful individuals in the future.

We hope to add a Little Tikes Calvin the Caterpillar Climber as the second piece of equipment on our playground, which will provide a safe and fun environment for our students to play and learn.

As an educator, I am constantly impressed by my students' natural curiosity and eagerness to learn new things. By providing them with the tools they need to succeed, we are ensuring that they will have a bright and successful future ahead of them.
