My Project

We are getting ready to begin our study on clothing! Our students usually love this study because they are all very proud of their clothing and love showing off what they are wearing. We need your help to enhance this year's clothing study.

The clothes we wear and the way we dress are an important part of our everyday experience.

We are eager to learn about clothing. Please help us get laundry detergent and dryer sheets, so each of our students can take what they are learning about clothing home with them! We are also in need of a weather bear to help us determine what is appropriate clothing each day. Our students love to read, so having some felt pictures to go along with some stories would be very exciting to our students.
