My Project

I teach some of the most creative, thoughtful, and responsible kindergarten students you will ever meet; however, my students are extremely active five and six year olds. Often times, they are in such a hurry to push in their chairs or to help clean up that they are accidentally leaving scuff marks on our classroom floors.

These tennis balls will provide my students with a safe way to participate in the learning process.

My students will be able to actively engage in classroom activities, without the fear of scuffing up the classroom floor. Please consider donating to my classroom to ensure that I am teaching my students responsibility and the proper way to care for our classroom environment.
