My Project

During COVID, children worldwide were disconnected from other people and often limited to spending time only with their caregivers. I hope that with the funding of this project, students will have fun ways to interact with each other as well as learn about the world around them through collaborative play, and hearing stories of other people when groups select books independently from the new bins in our class library. Learning about people in different places and fields. I will create bins that will house the different Magformers and puzzles that students can use in both small and large groups; the requested bins will help students familiarize themselves with organizational skills and make it easy for my students to access what they need. These kits will allow students to work on social skills that they have so desperately needed since the pandemic.
