Glue sticks are used every day as my young learners cut, paste, create, and explore through hands-on activities. \r\n\r\nFor Pre-K students, these simple supplies support so much more than a craft. Using glue sticks helps children strengthen their fine-motor skills, hand-eye coordination, creativity, independence, and ability to follow directions. We will use them during literacy and math activities, learning centers, seasonal projects, and opportunities to express our learning through art.\r\n\r\nA small glue stick can help a young learner turn an idea into something they can proudly create—and that is a big impact in Pre-K! \r\n\r\nThank you so much for supporting our project.","fullyFundedDate":1778006815958,"projectUrl":"project/lets-stick-together/10233258/","projectTitle":"Let's Stick Together","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Powelson","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/272x272/tp2533218_272x272.jpg?width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1476063535603","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/2533218"},{"teacherId":9479813,"projectId":10231231,"letterContent":"Chieftain Royalty Co. v.

Seeing new equipment was such a delight, with a rise of anticipation for the season to start. The other coaches are ready to receive athletes. Things are coming together.\r\n\r\nThe essential supplies are needed in the clinic. Having these supplies for students is critical to having them at school and returning to school when ill. Having vomit bags available and ready in the event that a student feels nauseous is helpful to keep illness from spreading. Having splinter removers are so handy to have splinters removed effectively and non-evasive. Having cups to keep the students who come to me with heat exhaustion, getting them hydrated so that they can return back to class comfortably. Having a blood pressure cuff that fits their smaller arms is a must for accurate blood pressure readings. \r\n\r\nAll of the supplies and equipment will be utilized for the school year. Being prepared is so important to having a successful school year. We are all so grateful for the generosity of our donors. It makes our jobs here so much easier having the resources we need.

Puzzles are important for child's development and they are crucial during the preschool and kindergarten years. Puzzles develop many skills, making them the perfect educational play activity during the early years. \r\n\r\nare an excellent tool for developing fine motor skills. As children handle the small pieces, they strengthen their finger muscles. They have to pick them up, turn them and hold them carefully to join them together, which requires good control.\r\n\r\n2. Gross Motor Skills\r\nCertain puzzles, like large floor puzzles, can also develop gross motor skills. As children need to move their bodies around while building them, they strengthen the larger muscles. The motion of stretching across the body to pick up a piece to the left or right of a child, or placing it in position by leaning across the centre of the body, is great for learning to cross the midline.\r\n\r\n3. Visual Perception\r\nWhen children build puzzles, their eyes are seeing the shapes, images and forms on the pieces and this information gets sent to the brain, to interpret it. This is called visual perception. Without this skill, you would not know or understand why two pieces should connect together, or how they form a part of the bigger picture. \r\n\r\n4. Eye-Hand Coordination\r\nAlso part of developing visual skills, eye-hand coordination is the ability of the hands and the eyes to work together to function and perform tasks, such as catching a ball or tying a shoelace. Building puzzles from an early age is a simple way to build eye-hand coordination and develop a child's visual-motor integration, also an important skill for learning to write.\r\n\r\n5. Early Maths\r\nDuring puzzle play, children learn to see patterns and shapes, in the pieces as well as in the complete picture. Shape recognition is an important aspect of geometry, and patterns can be found in almost all mathematical concepts. The other supplies will also be towards the development of our young scholars.","fullyFundedDate":1772725708839,"projectUrl":"project/puzzles-and-supplies/9878408/","projectTitle":"Puzzles and Supplies","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Robertson","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp9479813_orig.jpg?crop=1:1,smart&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1713470767590","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9479813"},{"teacherId":9479813,"projectId":10500848,"letterContent":"Thank you so much for your thoughtful donation to our classroom and the kiddos we work with each and every day.
