My students work really hard during the school year, but need constant breaks. The classroom however does not have any fun learning or social activities for them to really enjoy their break time. They usually just sit and talk and don't engage with one another. We need games and puzzles to use an as award system. This will encourage participation in core academic subjects. The students also deserve to have fun and new up-to-date items for the classroom. All the items we have in our classroom are old and the students have already used them so many times. This will be something exciting to look forward to.
