My Students

Our kindergarten students are a playful, energetic, curious, and culturally diverse group of children. Our school is located on the beautiful island of Maui, where we have students ranging from pre-school to fifth grade on campus. My kindergarteners are loving, fun, and intelligent scholars who are absorbing everything that's been introduced to them since the first day of school.

Every morning, the kids are super excited to start the day with taking attendance in different languages and sing and dance to the ABC song!

With COVID-19 going on around the world, the schools had to adjust to a new and creative way to reach the students. Our school is opening daily, in-person for the school year 2021-22. I want to make sure that my students have access to meaningful learning material to succeed, safely.

My Project

Please help my students and their room turn into a winter wonderland for upcoming season! They have been busy working on monthly themed crafts and go through papers and markers so quickly!

I'm asking for markers, construction papers, winter crafts that they'll create and some teacher materials such as laminating sheets so that I can create fun winterized games for learning!

I'm also asking for additional sets of the Wiggle Wobble Chair feet, as my students love getting their wiggles on while crafting!

These items will enrich our learning in the classroom, and we love the time spent together working on projects to help us become better artists, readers, writers, mathematicians and scientists!
