My Project

Accessing color is a primary challenge in our classroom. With minimal black ink and markers, the creativity of our kindergarteners is dulled by this monochrome palette. However, when provided with colorful pictures, centers, or markers, their imagination takes flight, inspiring vibrant ideas and enriching their learning experience.

By infusing color into their learning environment, we strive to instill a lifelong love for learning.

To tackle this challenge, we urgently need a rechargeable glue gun. Presently, we grapple with logistical hurdles using traditional glue guns. We must plug them in, wait for them to warm up, and then unplug them to transport to various areas for hanging colorful objects. Unfortunately, this process often leads to the glue cooling down before we can finish, necessitating a repeat of the warming-up process.

Furthermore, essential materials like ink, cardstock, and laminating sheets are pivotal for crafting durable and visually engaging learning resources. Without these supplies, we're unable to furnish our students with the quality materials they deserve.

In addition, colorful expo markers play a crucial role in facilitating brainstorming sessions, interactive lessons, and visual aids. However, due to budget constraints, we're unable to replenish our diminishing supply.
