My Students

My students are 3 and 4 years old. This is the first time most of them are in a school ever! They love to explore and play and pretend. They love to sing and have a dance party. They are always in the kitchen making someone something to eat. They can be found in the block center building a road for their cars and trucks. They are painting their hearts out using brushes or fingers. They are loving every minute of their school day. They are learning and having fun and building friendships all day long.

My students are risk takers and mess makers.

They are confident doers of exciting things. They are not built for desk sitting, their brains crave action. They need play to move and explore!

My Project

In my 3K For All program, we use Explorations to guide the children's learning. Explorations provide the students and teachers the opportunity to connect, explore materials, and learn together. Explorations invite engagement in comprehensive, in-depth, play-based learning. Topics and activities in Explorations begin with routines, and the classroom community then progress to more abstract ideas throughout the year.

The materials I am asking for will help my students to develop the love of learning that will help them succeed in their educational careers.

The dramatic play center, the art center, the science center, the math center, the water table are all a major part of my students' day, and adding new and exciting materials to these centers will keep them interested and excited to explore and question and learn.
