My Project

Preschool is all about laying the academic foundation for later learning. For most of my students, this is their first experience with a structured school routine where academics, such as early mathematics and literacy, are introduced. In our classroom, we target these building blocks of learning through fun and engaging activities and play scenarios. One of the most important first steps towards academic success in elementary school is the alphabet and phonological awareness. Learning our ABCs in preschool is crucial for success in kindergarten where reading and writing skills are introduced.

By donating to our project, you will not only help to improve and increase my student's alphabet and phonological awareness, but you will also ultimately help to increase their academic achievement and kindergarten readiness.

My students will be able to use these resources and materials to work on letter recognition during play opportunities. I will be able to incorporate these teaching materials during large and small groups instruction.
