My Students

I work with wonderful and inquisitive pre-kindergarten students in a very diverse school in Brooklyn, New York. We have children from many different cultures in our class and children with many special abilities.

My pre-k students love to learn new things daily!

For many of these children, it is their first year in school. They are learning about themselves, others, school rules, routines, and many new concepts in various subjects! They have many opportunities to explore what kind of learners they are and learn concepts in many different ways!

My Project

Outdoor play is an important part of a child's day. It is essential to go outdoors each day and engage in team sports, play, and exercise that is fun and engaging.

My students need equipment to engage in team sports and outdoor gross motor play!

We need various sport items to play and warm up with such as balls, frisbees, a toss and catch set, baseball items, jump ropes, relay race equipment, a whistle, and a ball inflator to play sports everyday outside! Having these items will allow my students to learn how to play various sports, learn how to be a good teammate, and get fun exercise everyday outdoors.

We would be grateful for any help you can give towards my students learning sports, social skills, and getting important exercise everyday!
