The first paragraph discusses a new playground whose goal is to help students with learning difficulties develop among fellow children with the help of their parents and the surrounding environment itself. By engaging with the children in this way, it helps to develop the children in a way that might not be available to them due to income.
The moments these children partake in may be small ones, but a lot of these small moments will build towards bigger successes in strides in their mental development. This playground is part of Oakland’s overall commitment to preparing for their entrance into the school system, and for their future careers and aspirations. The big goal from this city-wide drive (Oakland Promise) is to triple the number of Oakland residents who go to college.
