My Project

Pre-k students are amazing. They are curious and so eager to learn. Preschoolers learn through play. Their favorite time of the day is center time.

During center time the children practice social skills and self-awareness while exploring and developing their literacy, math, science, and art skills.

Center time is an opportunity for children to try out the skills they are learning in a safe environment; where it’s ok to make mistakes and learn from them.

Your donations will give my students new and updated toys and learning materials. This new carpet, Can Do Science Discovery Kits, science viewers, and other materials will enhance their learning and satisfy their curiosity.
