Learning Tools for Little Hands

Help me give my students the joy of learning! There is nothing better than to see the joy on a child's face when they actively experience hands-on-learning with rhythm sticks, science tools, art materials, and puzzles.

My Students

My students love school! I do everything I can to make sure they have what they need to learn. Because my class is made up of ten general education students and eight students with special needs, it is important that I have what I need to reach each and every student according to their individual needs. I am excited to embark on this new year in a new room and for the opportunity to positively impact the lives of our future. I have a wonderful group of preschoolers! Every one of my precious students is unique and able to learn!

Pre-kindergarten is the opportunity that students have to attend school and learn academic, social, and emotional skills that will provide for their success in school and throughout their lives.

In order to maximize this benefit, I achieve to provide my students with what I know will equip them to learn.

In any industry, one must have the right tools to do a job right. As a teacher, it is my job to make sure that all of my students learn the pre-kindergarten content by utilizing their creativity, curiosity, and energy through exploration, discovery, and problem solving.

My Project

Every single item In this project is necessary to provide a complete learning environment for my awesome students! My students are very diverse, thus I need to provide a well-rounded learning experience that will inspire and activate learning!

With this funded project, my students will enjoy music and movement with rhythm sticks as they learn patterns, counting, cooperation, communication and more.

My class of preschoolers will love to learn about the world around them while exploring inside and outside the classroom with a magnifying glass for each student. They will be able to engage freely as they paint in art with aprons to protect their clothes.

My classroom of 18 students is currently in my classroom with 6 puzzles. Preschoolers love learning! Puzzles provide a lot of lessons! I would appreciate your help in equipping my room with enough puzzles for all of my students to enjoy puzzle time! For some, it is their favorite part of the library. However, with only 6 puzzles, I know that enthusiasm will fade without this funded project!

Please realize, these are not items that will only get used and disposed of. These items will last for many years! Your contribution will touch the lives of countless students! For sure they will carry the joy of learning throughout their lives, as I have!
