My Students

Our Pre-K students are motivated and curious learners! Each day, our students come to school to play and learn with their friends. They enjoy playing together in the various classroom learning centers. We strive to provide fun, engaging, and interactive learning activities in each learning center for our students to grow in their learning every day!

My Project

Our Light Table is in need of some exciting, engaging, and interactive literacy, math, and sensory learning materials for our wonderful Pre-K students. Our students are active explorers in the classroom and enjoy playing with new and exciting materials!

I am requesting light table manipulatives and materials which will help our students to engage in fun and hands-on learning activities.

These materials will provide ample opportunities to interact with learning materials which will provide our students with the skills, knowledge, and foundation that they can build on to explore and reinforce concepts, such as; letter recognition, number recognition, shapes, measuring, counting, and sorting.

In addition, the materials will help students develop in their literacy learning; vocabulary and language development as the students are engaging in conversations through play; sensory exploration; while enhancing and developing their social-emotional learning through sharing, taking turns, and helping each other learn. These materials will help students grow in their learning, develop confidence, and independence as they transition to kindergarten next year.
