My Project

We love to paint in our classroom. We would love to have two class sets of watercolors for our two Pre-K classrooms. Students will watercolor letters, their names, pictures and more.

We love working with our hands and use hands-on materials.

We are wanting to add dry erase markers to our writing center. We have regular dry erase markers as well as the fine tip dry erase markers. Students will trace their names, trace letters and numbers. Students will also write their names, letters, numbers and other words on dry erase boards. Students will use these in small groups, whole groups as well as in notebooks for homework.
