  • Let’s Read About It!

    Funded Mar 12, 2021

    Thank you for helping me bring some more reading materials to my classroom. We have enjoyed using these materials this school year!

    This year, I have been teaching in-person, so these materials have been used during our whole group. This is where I focus on my student's needs and struggles. These materials help me support and develop their reading skills. For example, we have read aloud every day. This helped the students see and understand story elements. I feel that these materials are hands-on and that's the best way my students learn.

    I look forward to continuing to use these materials in person in the classroom for many years to come. Thank you for supporting my students and classroom!”

    With gratitude,

    Ms. Sookra

  • SteaMing in Class!

    Funded Nov 14, 2020

    Thank you for helping me bring some more math and science materials to my classroom. We have enjoyed using these materials this school year!

    This year, I have been teaching in-person, so these materials have been used during our small groups. This is where I focus on my student's needs and struggles. These materials help me support and develop their cognitive and motor skills. For example, we were using the button sorting center, which makes you sort by colors, size, shapes, and how many holes in the button. This helped the students see and understand what small, medium, and large were by doing a hands-on activity. I feel that these materials are hands-on and that's the best way my students learn.

    I look forward to continuing to use these materials in person in the classroom for many years to come. Thank you for supporting my students and classroom!”

  • Help Me Grow Through Hands-on Experiences!

    Funded Jul 11, 2020

    I just want to thank you so much for this donation to my classroom! My students have enjoyed exploring all these materials. They love going to the math, dramatic play, and writing center so much more now. These new addition have made the classroom much more fun in learning. The students have been using the materials to practice their basic skills such as matching colors, building, and using their fine motors skills. From the bottom of my heart and the students, I thank each and every one of you for your generosity!”

    With gratitude,

    Ms. Sookra

Preschool students often come to school with sensory deprivations. They need time to use their sense of touch to explore and learn. The materials I have wished for, are items that the classroom needs and uses daily. My goal is to promote and encourage a love of reading in my library/reading center with props and puzzles, to supply more art materials for projects, crafts, and fine motor experiences in the math center, and science items to build sensory skills and enhance curiosity. These supplies will provide some of the items we use daily and items that we use in all our centers as well.
