My Students

Help me replace our classroom furniture and boost my students appreciation for our class environment.

My students are the sweetest preschoolers in all of the San Fernando Valley.

They absolutely love coming to school everyday and are such enthusiastic learners. They don't realize that the furniture in our classroom is 100 hundred years old and falling apart. They love our classroom despite it's horrible furniture. They are just so happy to be in school.

My Project

These new tables and chairs will benefit my students in so many wonderful ways. First, our classroom environment will be that much more inviting for my students because they will actually be able to sit at the table and have it fit them properly. What we have right now comes to their chins and it makes it very difficult for them to reach their crafts and work. Second these kidney shaped tables will open up the room tremendously. This will then lead to more room for more learning centers for them to explore. Thirdly and lastly these will enable my assistant and I to be able to access all of the students in our rotating groups at the same time instead of trying to move around awkwardly to try to reach them.

I have not had any success finding any preschool sized tables and chairs on my school campus.

Please help me fill my preschool class with the appropriate furniture to help my little ones feel comfortable and free in our classroom. We are desperate need for new furniture to replace our mismatched, broken, and breaking furniture.
