My Project

My students are amazing! I have a range of 3 years old to 5 years old in both my morning and my afternoon preschool classes. All of my students are unique and have different interests from pre-writing to crafting to building/constructing with different types of blocks. My students are learning how to activelylisten to stories.

Help me give my preschool students a forward facing bookshelf to store children's books on as well as story manipulatives in the storage baskets.

This bookshelf will be a great addition to our classroom. Preschoolers are more likely to interact with written stories when the cover is visible to them. This bookshelf will help promote literacy skills by increasing student use of books and making familiar stories more accessible.
