Winter Wonderland

Help me give my students the supplies needed to play and learn outside at school in the winter.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Avigne's classroom raised $280

My Students

My students are dynamic and curious four and five-year-old children. My classroom is a multi-cultural classroom and many of my students are English Language Learners. Our classroom is a community of learners. We are great thinkers and creative makers! We are getting ready for Kindergarten and so much more!

We are located in an impoverished area of the city and all of my students receive free and reduced lunch.

Most of my students come from economically disadvantaged homes.

My Project

In Pre-Kindergarten, part of our curriculum is to go outside twice a day. There are obvious health benefits to being outside such as breathing fresh air, exercising our bodies and taking a break from the indoors. However, the outdoors is also an amazing learning environment for our students. This is where we investigate our world and begin to understand early science skills.

Too often, students arrive at school without the basic cold weather supplies needed to enjoy the winter snow.

These supplies of hats, gloves and shovels will help them to bundle up and continue learning.
