My students are a great example of how America is a fantastic country to live in! My students come from a very diverse population ranging from Hispanic to African American and Vietnamese. There are three to five year-olds in my multi-age classroom. They all laugh, smile, and play together in harmony!
The families in the community are very appreciative of the opportunity of a high-quality early education from which their children benefit.
Many of them get assistance in some way with paying our tuition, which helps tremendously!
My Project
My preschool kiddos need new and engaging building materials like these LEGO sets and bases to add to our block area.
LEGO will be a great addition for my preschool students to help with their building, cooperative play, fine motor, STEM and cognitive skills!
There are so many benefits to having LEGO in the classroom! The students can create more complex structures and while doing this, their brain is also getting exercised. LEGO are wonderful to refresh cognitive thinking as well as creativity. It is a fun and productive way for my preschoolers to play.
The LEGO sets and bases will be used daily in my preschool classroom to allow my preschoolers to let their imaginations run wild!
More than half of students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
