My Project

In our Pre-K classroom, we believe that hands-on learning is essential to sparking curiosity and fostering creativity in our youngest learners. To support this, we are requesting a light table and a set of manipulatives to enhance our students’ learning experiences.

A light table offers a unique and engaging way for children to explore colors, shapes, and patterns through hands-on play.

It provides a sensory-rich environment that stimulates cognitive development, fine motor skills, and problem-solving abilities. By using translucent materials and objects on the light table, children will experience a new dimension of learning and discovery.

In addition to the light table, manipulatives are essential tools that allow our Pre-K students to explore early math and literacy concepts through play. These hands-on materials help develop critical skills like counting, sorting, patterning, and letter recognition in a way that feels fun and interactive.

Your generous donation will directly support our efforts to create a stimulating and supportive learning environment for our Pre-K students. With your help, we can give our youngest learners the tools they need to grow, explore, and develop a love for learning. Thank you for making a difference in their educational journey!
