My Project

This project is an amalgamation of items for my imagination, creation center. In kindergarten, one of my biggest challenges is competing with Youtube, XBox, and cell phones for my students' attention and drive. I am requesting a mobile white board so I can write clear and consice directions/samples for students to follow as they visit my imagination creation station.

I am also requesting picture frames which I can use to celebrate the work of a student that tries hard daily.

Finally, the shopping cart will enhance the center by providing role play opportunities.
