My Project

Kindergarten is a magical time where students blossom as learners! One of our favorite ways to learn is through play. These dramatic play sets will provide endless opportunities for my students to practice and strengthen their oral language skills, creativity, and collaboration.

I am a firm believer that children learn best when they are highly engaged and able to use their imagination.

I would like to have these dramatic play sets for my students to use during our literacy center and free exploration time. Using animal sets during our literacy center time, for example, could foster some wonderful ideas for their illustrations and writing. During our exploration time, the students will be able to practice their communication and oral language skills when they use dialogue during their dramatic play.

My students are a diverse group of learners who are eager to learn and full of joy and curiosity. These sets will be an amazing addition to our class.
