We love kwik stix! This is our most favorite art tool and we are so happy to have enough for another school year! Our kids love using kwik stix so much, that each child will get a set of each color in their end of the year celebration bags. They are going to enjoy using these paint sticks with their families. Thank you so much for your generous support! We truly appreciate your help in making our classroom experiences fun for the students. The end is here and the year went by fast! Please stay safe and be blessed always!”

Thank you! We love our new foam mats! They look like they are sturdier than our previous ones. The kids say they are so beautiful. I am hoping they can withstand the vacuum cleaner the custodians use on them! So far, so good a week in! We are so grateful for the comfy new mats. They are super easy to clean, which is great. Preschoolers can get so messy, so we are so happy with the ease of having them. Thank you again, for your generosity, support and kindness. We appreciate your continued interest in our classroom!”

Our preschoolers get so excited with every new hands-on learning activity! We got super creative with the designs and colors for our tie dye shirts! The kids were so proud of how their shirts turned out. This was a great way to show kids how clothes can be made. We also used plastic needles and thread to sew jumbo sized buttons onto burlap, by sewing the letter X with our needle and thread. Thank you so much for supporting our class and helping to make our learning experiences engaging and meaningful! We are so grateful!”

We recently got 2 benches for each of our playgrounds! They are a huge hit with the students and staff. Our custodian suggested getting 2 more for the courtyard area of our school. We have an outdoor learning classroom and garden. Students often go outside to read, do observational drawings, have visitors and work in the garden. Having more seating options is such a great idea. We are so appreciative of this gift!”

Playdough will never get old with our preschoolers. We had it out and available for 2 months straight. I put it away for 2 weeks and brought it back out again when we got our new accessories. We learned how to tear a piece of dough, roll it into a snake and use the scissors to cut! So much fine motor work, and it's super fun for them. We are playing, while strengthening our finger and hand muscles at the same time! We are so incredibly grateful for our new dough accessories. Thank you forever!”

My preschoolers love using paint! Watercolor paint is especially exciting for them. We love our new watercolor books! The kids had so much fun looking through all the art pages to choose which picture they would paint. They watched each other painting and even gave each other advice on how to use more water. They carefully placed their wet art on the drying rack and couldn't wait to take them home at the end of the day to show family members. We are so thankful! My students can't wait to use watercolors again!”

My preschoolers love having their snack time, right before dismissal. We have our classroom favorites, but we also try new snacks from time to time. They have to have rice krispies treats and fruit snacks in the mix daily. I try to keep our classroom stocked with those. They love choosing a snack of their choice at the end of each day. We would not be able to have snack if not for supporters like you! These snacks will last us until the last day of school! So, thank you again. We appreciate your generosity so much!”
We have colored ink! It's so important to be able to view things in color, especially in preschool, where kids are learning the color names! We have been working so hard to learn our letter names and letter sounds! Now that we know most or all of the letter sounds, we are practicing using our beginning sounds in writing! I challenged our preschoolers to write a short and simple book at the writing table! They were rewarded by turning recreating that book on our ViewBoard! We printed, laminated and bound each book. Then, we placed our books in the classroom library for all to view. Look at all the amazing and vibrant colors! Can you imagine if we didn't have colored ink? We are so grateful for your support. Thank you, thank you, thank you! You can see how proud the kids are of their hard work!”

Preschool is the first school experience for many of our students and I wanted to welcome them all with a sweet gift on Open House night! I am so happy that our preschoolers will each get a copy of Time for School, Little Dinosaur, especially because the dinosaur is our school mascot. This will be a great soft start introduction into Pre-K and I am so thankful for your support, making it happen! I know this will make each child feel special and welcome for their first day of school! Please stay safe and be blessed, always!”

One of our classroom jobs is custodian. The kids empty the little trash cans into the big trash can and the kids help with wiping tables clean. This is a super treasured job. All kids love helping but this is one of our absolute favorite class jobs. We are so grateful to have actual paper towels to wipe our tables and sturdy trash bags that won't leak. This is a little thing, but it is huge in preschool. Thank you for helping us to keep our classroom clean and tidy. We love a clean classroom. It helps to fight the dirties and the nasties!”
