Mc Kees Rocks, PA Grades PreK-2

My Project

My students each have such unique personalities. Getting to know them over these past few weeks I can start to see what curious young learners they are. My room needs a little support to help my students improve their own skills. I want to create a dramatic play area in my classroom for my students. I feel some type of "kitchen" or "grocery store" would help my students establish more practical life skills, while still being developmentally appropriate for them. I want to create lessons using this to practice skills like counting, setting the table, using "money", sorting items, and stocking our shelves. I also included some health and wellness products that would help maintain my classroom as well.
