Students in Kindergarten are not only learning new things. especially during center time but also learning how to be more independent during work. \r\n\r\nWhen students know exactly where to go, what materials to use, and what is expected of them, they are more confident and capable of managing their own choices. Clear systems reduce confusion and allow students to focus on their tasks instead of relying heavily on adult direction.\r\n\r\nBy consistently modeling expectations and organizing the environment in a student-friendly way, we empower children to make decisions about their learning—such as selecting a center activity that suits their interests or learning goals. This sense of autonomy fosters accountability and builds critical skills like time management, problem-solving, and self-regulation.\r\n\r\n\r\nThank you for your support in helping our students become confident, independent learners!","fullyFundedDate":1746700106320,"projectUrl":"project/smart-storage-for-sharp-minds/9257321/","projectTitle":"Smart Storage for Sharp Minds!","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Maisonet-Lawrence","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp9557869_orig.jpg?crop=2315,2315,x0,y385&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1716920897580","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9557869"},{"teacherId":9557869,"projectId":9257298,"letterContent":"I want to extend my sincere gratitude for your generous donation of headphones to our classroom.
