TK Learning Through Play

Help me give my students the joy of learning through play. This is my fourth year teaching and second year teaching TK. I love observing the kids learn and grow through the items they play with!

Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project

In TK we spend of a majority of the time learning through play to help with our motor skills, behavioral skills, and overall develop our social emotional learning skills. The items requested will be used throughout the day as these resources will be used by students when they come into class and start to use their creative minds to create from their imagination or play with friends to build sharing skills and friendships as they get to explore learning skills through play. In TK we are getting them prepared behaviorally for kindergarten while also still exposing them to learning about letters, colors, and numbers!

Last year we lacked diversity in the items/ resources we had in the classroom and hoping with the help of donations I can provide my class with fun building resources, play resources, and learning resources to make learning at school that much better!
