Mrs. Poe’s Classroom Edit display name

Unfortunately, dramatic play is rapidly disappearing from kindergarten. I would love to see child-initiated play and experiential learning restored in the kindergarten classroom. I am requesting a kitchen, a kitchen set, baby dolls, and accessories to create a dramatic play area. I will use the products requested to create a home living area where students can play, learn, and interact with others. I strongly believe kindergartners need opportunities to explore their own thoughts and feelings in dramatic play. Dramatic play teaches children self-regulation, it gives children an emotional outlet, and it teaches conflict resolution. Dramatic play also supports literacy, math, science and many other areas. With your donation, I will be able to provide my students with a home living area for dramatic play where they will learn about themselves and the world.
