This was just one example of something we were able to incorporate through your generous support. \r\nIt is important to me that my young learners still love learning and are engaged through meaningful play.

We are so excited to use the class tent (teepee) during our Native American unit within our CKLA literacy curriculum. It will be a core memory for these kindergarteners.

They are a huge hit! \r\nThe general classroom supplies of laminating pouches, construction paper, dry erase erasers, hanging strips, card stock paper and more makes the classroom run smoothly. We have already made a back to school project with the construction paper. The students use the little dry erase erasers daily to practice letters, words and math on their white boards. \r\nThe community building toys are the biggest hit! When students come in to the classroom in the morning they can choose a morning tub with the toys in it. They play with a few friends and get ready for the day.
