My Project

Please help me purchase chalk, play dough, unfinished wooden crafts, beach balls, paint sets, sight word flash cards, and seashell collecting bags for my students' end of the year gifts. My pre-k students have overcome so many obstacles this year between their first full year of school since CO-VID began, transitioning to a classroom full of safety precautions (masks, distancing, dividers), and socializing in person. Regardless of these hurdles, they came to school with smiles beaming on their faces daily.

My students are budding artists who thrive on art materials and hands-on learning.

In my fifteen years of teaching, I never had a class more into arts than this year. I would love to provide them with some fun arts materials to continue their learning and strengthen their fine-motor skills during summer vacation.

These materials, along with sight word flash cards, will assist my students in maintaining their love for learning.
