The 2023-2024 school year, our students go back to school in July! This summer we have already almost hit 20 days in a row above 110 degrees, and there is no end in sight. When we have these types of days, our students are not allowed to play outside for recess for safety reasons.
We will be spending many of our recess times indoors with this blazing heat, and I want to give my students fun ways to engage in the classroom during these times.
I want them to be able to engage with their peers in a safe way, and using indoor recess materials will help us. I am asking for materials like magna tiles, marble run, brain games, playdough, Legos and more for this reason. This will allow the students to have fun in a nonacademic way and not think about losing out on their time outdoors.
More than half of students from low‑income households
