My Project

My name is Miss Kayla and we are the Kayla Kubbie's. I absolutely love my job and what I get to do everyday. My students mean the entire world to me and they hold a special place in my heart. The students in my classroom love hands on learning and have the most curious minds. They are always so excited to learn new things and love when we get new learning toys in our room!

The puppet stand would be a wonderful addition to our classroom to help our students express themselves and explore dramatic play on a whole other level.

I also think it will help with social and emotional skills and teach them how to express their feelings. I want them to be able to make up entire plays to present to the class and just have so much fun playing with it.

I have seen how dramatic play can really attract students to it with the right tools. We are wanting to build our children to have a better and brighter future.
