I am a kindergarten teacher in an inner city school in Worcester, MA. The students entering my classroom come to kindergarten with a diverse range of learning abilities. I try to meet the learning needs of my students through small group center-based instruction with a variety of games and activities. Many of these hands-on materials I have made or purchased myself. Over time and much use these materials have become worn. Additional funding would allow me to purchase new materials to support the learning needs of my students in the areas of literacy, mathematics, science and social studies. Thank you for your support.
