About
Pre-K is the first experience of school for the majority of my students. Most come from low income neighborhoods without a lot of exposure to the outside world. My classroom is a happy and safe place for the students to experience what is out in the world. My district does not have money to supply items that enrich my students' learning throughout the year.
Unfortunately, the funding source for my Pre-K class is to cover the tuition for the students, and there was not any money left for supplies.
My students are asked to bring in very few supplies at the beginning of the year, but by halfway through the year those have been depleted. I buy what I can and ask for donations, but sometimes we cant complete projects and activities for the lack of materials.
My Project
Not only do these supplies benefit the children, but it also saves me so much that I would normally spend out of my pocket. I have gotten pretty good at going to local stores to ask if they can donate to our class, but often they have to jump through too many hoops to be able to help.
These pipe cleaners, play dough, scissors, paint, and art supplies will allow the students to create projects, and the baby doll bottles and strollers let students engage in pretend play.
Role playing in positive ways is a great way children learn good social skills. It is so important that the students develop all areas. Some materials used in our Pre-K class are consumables, and when we run out there is no one to help pay to restock the supplies.
