Each baggie and pouch has given our students easy access to materials during centers and play-based learning activities, reducing chaos and encouraging responsibility and cleanup routines. Because everything now has a designated space, students are able to make choices, return items when finished, and take pride in keeping our room neat and inviting.\r\n\r\nYour donation has transformed the way our students engage with their learning tools every single day.
