This Little Light of Mine

Help me give my students fun manipulatives and learning activities for our light table.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Brown's classroom raised $317

This project is fully funded

My Project

Help us to finally use our light table in our pre-k classroom. This light table could be a versatile tool that enhances my students' learning through engaging, hands-on activities. However, we do not have and translucent manipulatives for the light table. Your generous donation towards these manipulatives would help to promote fine motor skills, visual discrimination, and sensory exploration while fostering creativity and imagination. Students can use them for various subjects like math, science, literacy, and art, creating a dynamic learning environment. Please consider making a donation to our class today!
