My Project

I want to give my 4th graders more time to creatively play together in the classroom. These items will give my students fun choices during our Friday choice time.

My goal is that using these materials, students will be given the opportunity to work together, work through disagreements, and gain a better sense for how to work as a team.

I have a wonderful group of students, but at home they are often glued to screens. I believe imaginative play is crucial for development and I want to give space for play in the classroom.
