What is the most amazing grade to teach? Kindergarten! Why, you ask? Kindergarten is simply amazing because of the change and growth you watch and nurture during the year. Children learn best through play. So why not use play and technology to not only assist them in their learning but to help prepare them for the high tech world they will be growing up in. The Osmo system is a program that allows student to not only use hands on manipulatives but their iPads. The best of both words rolled into one.

Help our children develop a passion for learning with your generous donation. Give our students the opportunity to collaborate together as they learn to create and explore. The Osmo will become an important component to our centers. Every student will enjoy the benefits of this awesome learning tool. Our world continues to demand more knowledge in technology. Allow me to prepare my students for the high tech world they will enter.
