My Project

Students learn and cope through play. I want my students to continue to thrive in the classroom and what better way to achieve this than through play!

To strengthen my students’ social emotional learning, I want to provide a means for them to continue to grow through play and art.

Students will learn through play with safety protocols in place to keep them safe and healthy.

Students will have access to a variety of activities which include drawing doodle pads, building toys, Play-Doh, art materials, putty and slime, and other stimulating hands-on materials, to enhance their social and emotional growth. We can laminate their work for them to keep as well as pocket packs/bags to help keep their work organized. My students will be able to increase verbal skills and team building skills with the use of the STEM activities. We will also disinfect the toys between student uses.

I have amazing students and this project that is full of fun and creative activities will continue to enrich their social and emotional well-being!
