We're Not Kitten Around, We Need Your Help!

Help me give my students the added resources to increase their play in our 3K classroom!

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Lauren's classroom raised $591

My Project

The materials I have added for this project will help my students in our upcoming unit: Pets! I have added hands-on materials that can be used during our choice time each day for further exploration of our topic!

WHO DOESN'T LIKE DRESS-UP?

I have added veterinarian costumes and tools for the students to use to "take care" and "help" their needy pets! I have included a dress-up wardrobe to be used in our dramatic play area to place costumes and props for our students to use while involved in play with others. This will help the students to get into their character and act it out.

I have also added items to help create a strong literacy foundation for our little ones as they continue their first year in school!
