My Project

My students are eager to learn. They are bright and full of questions. They love to learn about new things and are constantly using their imagination. They are special because they love to pretend play and to build. They desperately need blankets and cot sheets for nap time. The classroom is cold from the air conditioning which is helping with ventilation. Some children have but some do not and it breaks my heart. I have asked the parents for blankets but most of my class still doesn’t have any blankets or cot sheets. Also, my scholars would love to have bears to cuddle during their nap-time.
