My Project

Have you ever had to stay inside for recess? What does the teacher do? Put on a movie? Have you draw? Well, I have heard to many "I am bored" this year!

It is time to help us out with some new board games and card games that will get our competitive edge on and keep us strategizing!

We will use the board games and cards whenever there is inclement weather in NYC, which is often during the winter and spring months!

Please help support our recess time with your donation! Any amount helps!

Mrs. Prete PS 130 Hernando De Soto Grades 3-5
