My Project

Here in our 3K class, we have 15 fabulous students with various needs. The items in our cart will help my class thrive in their early childhood development. The light table manipulatives provide exposure to letter, shape, and number identification. The Magna-Tile cars help students understand velocity and encourages dramatic play. I have a few different Melissa and Doug dramatic play items such as a Mexican food kit, sushi kit, coffee machine- all to deepen the children's understanding and exposure to different cultures and cuisines.

One of the items that excites me most, are the Playlearn liquid floor tiles.

This targets the needs of children who need sensory output, rather than a stuffed animal or deep breathing, when self regulating their emotions.

The students in my class are especially curious and affectionate. I know these items in our cart will enhance their learning experiences. These items will contribute to their self-regulation of their emotions, build on their schema, and will allow them to make real world connections. Please help our precious 3K students have access to these valuable items!
