Creativity and Critical Thinking Through Dress-Up

Help me give my students items for dramatic play. I would like for the kids to learn about diversity and STEM.

My Project

I hope that my students will get a better understanding of diversity in their community and the world with these lab coats and other dress-up items. They love to dress up and pretend. It's great for their imagination. This is also a great time for language building. We work on building vocabulary and social emotional learning. We learn about community helpers and what they do in the community and what tools they use.

I would also like to incorporate some STEM projects to introduce science to help my students get a better understanding that science is fun and exciting to learn with the correct learning tools.
