The items I am requesting will help my students flourish with exploration and mindfulness. I tried to incorporate things that will encourage students and parents to enjoy learning. I selected items that will keep kids actively exploring through play and continuously learning. I also requested things that represent the cultures, interests, and learning goals of our children. I want to make sure that all of our children are prepared for kindergarten providing them with the materials they need to gain a head start in their education journey. These items will help students in emergent reading, writing, and math skills. Students will be able to learn all necessary learning goals to move on from pre-K to kindergarten. They will manipulate these items to enhance their understanding of the creative curriculum themes. These items will help students develop their fine and gross motor skills. I greatly appreciate any donations to make this all possible. As Maya Angelou said, " When you know better you do better".
