PreK Materials for Growing Creativity!

Help me give my students great materials that will help them be creative and imaginative this school year.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Pollard's classroom raised $396

This project is fully funded

My Project

My students are PreK kids who are in school for the very first time. They are creative and imaginative and deserve to have all the right materials they need to grow and learn this school year. The play doh and crayons will be great for helping their fine motor skills as they get ready to learn to write their names, letters and numbers. The laminator and pouches are needed to help make manipulatives and laminate important classroom materials that are used throughout the school year. Please help us receive these much needed materials.
