My Project

We are looking for some new additions to our building centers. We have one set of creatures, but they are a favorite activity in our building/exploration centers, so adding another set to our collection would allow more students to explore this center option. We would like the panda to set to allow students to explore building habitats and using their imaginations. We just read about Lincoln Logs in part of our curriculum and the students thought they looked fun. I thought it would be fun if I could get them a set to build and explore with. Blocks are a popular center activity, but this would give them something new to explore.

Kindergarten is an important time for students to learn how to share, communicate with one another and use their imaginations.

I would love to add these to our building center to give students more choices and some fun new items to explore. It is important to give students time to use their imaginations and work with their peers. We would be so appreciative of receiving these items to accomplish this and allow me to change out the items in our centers to keep the students engaged.
