My Project

My students are curious, energetic preschoolers who learn best through hands-on play and exploration. I love watching their confidence grow as they solve problems, work together, and celebrate successes.

These large outdoor games will support gross motor development while building critical thinking, communication, and social skills.

Giant Connect Four and Tic-Tac-Toe encourage strategy, turn-taking, and cooperation, while Giant Jenga promotes coordination, problem-solving, and persistence. These engaging resources will create joyful opportunities for movement, teamwork, and learning, helping my students develop skills that will support their success in school and beyond.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
