  • Ms. P’s Project

    Funded Dec 30, 2022

    Thank you so very much for your funding of our MagnaTiles. We have hoped for this resource for so long-- And you all made it possible! Our students were in disbelief when we reopened our light table center with these new additions to explore.

    We have been using our MangaTiles to explore transparent objects through light, create our own bridges and buildings seen in our community helpers unit, and test size concepts. It also allows for more engaging ways to learn color and shape identification! These magnets allow for optimal creative freedom in play-based learning. Our kiddos have been so proud of their creations.

    We will continue to foster a learn-through-play motto in our preschool classroom and share so much "WOW!" moments with our MagnaTiles. Unstructured play teaches us so much about teamwork, pre-academic concepts, and increases independence. Thank you so much for your generosity to make this project possible!”

    With gratitude,

    Ms. Polston

  • Create Through Crafting

    Funded Dec 30, 2022

    Thank you so much for funding our art inventory as we create magic in our classroom. Our students love watching their creations come to life and imitate real figures, people and places we learn through our curriculum. We are using your donations to create farm animals, objects that produce lights/sounds, Mother's Day gifts, and so much more. We even were able to create work environments that were seen in our community helpers unit.

    Our students were so surprised to see the abundance of new materials, including paint, pom-poms, rhinestones, and sequins to unleash their creativity through structured and unstructured projects. We have been so grateful to explore our art center with different textures and mediums to work with.

    Our next project will include scrapbooking that will hold all of our memories from our year(s) together. These students will take your donations to treasure for the years to come! Thank you again for your generosity.”

    With gratitude,

    Ms. Polston
