My Project

Welcoming beautiful little babies into Pre-K is the reason why September is the best! This year, we are adopting a new curriculum, in which we will be adding music as a center! Help me bring instruments and shakers to our classroom! Teaching in a special education classroom means always thinking of how to best support students in their IEP goals. So many friends need fine motor supports consistently to achieve their goals. These tools and toys will help students achieve their goals by giving them play-doh tools, tweezers, grabbers, sand and water toys and pencils!
