Active Play Games and Activities!

Help me give my students fun games and activities to play with during our indoor recess days!

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Smith's classroom raised $286

My Students

My students are an energetic and curious bunch of kiddos! They come to school every day (whether virtually or in person) with smiles on their faces, eager to learn, despite some of the tough situations they come from and the ongoing pandemic we are facing. They are thrilled to learn and grow, every day, no matter what challenges they face in their home lives!

Our classroom is a community where the students can feel excited, included, safe, and successful!

I want to ensure my students have fun games and materials that will allow them to explore their creativity and interests safely in the classroom during recess. Your support would ensure we can safely return to the classroom and still have some fun throughout the day!

My Project

Our goal is to make indoor recess a time for students to play games and have positive social interactions with each other. We want this project to provide my students with fun and entertaining activities to play during their indoor recess. This project would provide our students with options during indoor recess or free time in the classroom. We want these students to enjoy themselves and have fun! These activities would provide this opportunity for our students to get along with each other while enjoying indoor recess. Our students would have a variety of indoor recess materials when the weather is too hot or bad for outside recess.
