My Project

Students need imaginative play and interactive games in order to help increase their vocabulary skills in the school setting. Toys and games, including the Fisher-Price Little People sets and card games help engage students while teaching in an interactive way.

Increasing vocabulary is important for enhancing student learning and classroom engagement.

These items help children with learning disabilities as well as students learning a new language. Vocabulary skills help with reading comprehension, writing skills, and stronger communication. Games and toys are a seemingly simple, fun way to create engagement and motivation in order to better overall academic performance.
