My Project

My kindergarten students love playing with their classmates. They enjoy playing with different types of toys that promote sharing, cooperation and most importantly their imagination. This project will allow my students to build different sculptures with magnetic tiles, create a town using big boxes/bricks or how to guard their castle from dangerous dragons. Having these toys in our classroom not only engages the students, but also allows them to strengthen their social skills, share toys with one another, and most importantly take turns. Such toys would promote a fun classroom environment.
