Creating a Calm but Stimulating Inside Recess

Help me give my students interactive and stimulating games that they can play during inside recess.

My Project

This project will help me create a calm and stimulating inside recess. It will also create this for any school day! In Utah we can have weather from all seasons in one day.

If we get rain and snow, the students will need to be inside for recess.

This project will allow me to create an environment where the students can feel like they are still "playing" for recess, but they can play calmly while stimulating their brains.

This will offer a fun and relaxing inside recess, which we want so we do not interrupt other classes during this time as well.

We need a good variety of games and supplies when we have 45 students coming to our classroom everyday.

With these supplies, I will be able to create a better learning environment, be organized and have fun with games and other materials to encourage good behavior and motivate learning in our class.
