A lot of the items wanted are art. While our school has an art teacher, there is no prep time for a preschool class so having art integrated into our curriculum gives the chance for our kiddos to be involved.The learning outcomes for our youngsters will be center based/small groups. For example, having Paraeducator involvement, we can take small groups of children and further their learning, whether it be mixing colors and talking about how mixing things works (science and art) as well as taking manipulatives and counting them then sorting them into groups. By doing these, we can take data on their dis/improvements and/or thinking of ways to make it better/to change.
