My Project

We are asking for a few basic supplies to keep students' interests going. Today I am asking for magnetic and wipe-off boards for each child to use. They will use them to practice writing letters. We are in need of fingerpaint and fingerpaint paper to use during art. Every 4-year-old loves to be completely hands-on, and the best equipment for that is good basic finger paints. Fingerpainting will allow them to use their imagination as they create. The children will also love the foam paints as well as the foam beads. We do a lot of hands-on learning in my classroom and these products will make the day more fun and more interesting for the kids.
