Our school strives to see greatness in every student. We hope to inspire our students to be kind, work hard, and give back. My students come to school every day full of love for learning and a choice to be excited about school. With that excitement, the opportunities seem to be endless.
My students are leaders and problem-solvers; they have diverse abilities, personalities, and talents.
The students in my class are filled with energy and eagerness to change the world. They absolutely love challenges that allow them to use their creativity, engage in hands-on activities, and share their thinking with each other using the power of play.
My Project
According to NAEYC, dramatic play is an integral part of a child’s social, emotional and cognitive development. My first graders have missed almost half a year of kindergarten due to covid-19 and I have to find a way to recoup those social/emotional skills!
I want to reinforce the concepts that we are learning in our classroom by integrating them into dramatic play centers.
First graders will be able to take dramatic play to the next level. They love to use their imagination to act out scenarios. A kitchen provides the perfect opportunity to read, write, and use math in an imaginary setting while also navigating a social setting with their peers. Help me by providing the tools that I need to begin.
