These creative play items will help my Kindergarten friends seek out the unlimited possibilities of their imaginations! My students will be able to use cooperative play and compromise to explore their own feelings, and the feelings of others. The children will be able to create an imaginary post office, be pet vets, and make their own restaurant all in and effort to actively experiment with the social and emotional roles of life. Dramatic play with symbolic props, that reflect the range of families in our classroom such as doctor kits, baby dolls, and puppets further encourage my students to use language more extensively. Labeling props, and the actions that accompany them, spurs children on to communicate their ideas about play to their friends and to make sure that their roles work together. Kindergarteners are excited to be able to re-enact a story, tour new safe adventures, and feel empowered with positive word choice and play props. My Kindergarten friends and I will enjoy experimenting with our new tools, focusing on creating a cohesive and supportive classroom community. Please join me in nurturing these young students and watching them flourish as we go along on this journey!
