Pre-K students love to explore their soundings hands on and thru literacy. However, sometimes three, four, and five year old children forget to be careful with books especially since they are still learning book handling skills therefore most of our books are falling apart, hey accidents happen! A new classroom library with all of the most popular pre-k literature is much needed. The children would be elated to see brand new, colorful, intact books that can expand their mind, build their vocabularies, and take them on numerous adventures. In addition to a new classroom library our students would also really benefit from Scholastic, My Big World magazine. My Big World magazine prepares early learners for school with simple nonfiction on the great big world around them! Every issue introduces our preschoolers to a seasonal science or social development topic with colorful real-world photos and simple, repetitive text. Creative early learning activities with each issue develop the language, movement, and social development skills they need to succeed in kindergarten.
