These items will make all the difference in my classroom. This is my first year teaching and the classroom that I walked into at the beginning of the year had the bare essentials. My students will benefit from all of these materials in areas all over my classroom from the dramatic play area, blocks area, manipulative area, and more! My students deserve a learning environment that they can grow and create in. From Magna-Tiles and trucks to counting materials and microscopes my students will be able to flourish among learning materials that require them to use different parts of their brain. They will learn how to share and have conversations with their peers while learning how to care for their environment and pick up after themselves. They will be able to examine and explore while using the microscope and View Master. They will also be able to build and create using the Bristle Interlocking Building Blocks and MIBOTE Magnetic Building Blocks. The B. Toys Medical Kit and Pretend Play Accessory Toy Set will allow them to use their imagination to the fullest. The different manipulative toys will help strengthen their fine motor skills as well. All of these items will allow my students to achieve goals and succeed in all areas of the classroom and academics as a whole.
