Fun Indoor Recess

Help me give my students toys for indoor recess for days when its cold and wet.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Keesee's classroom raised $190

My Project

Help me make indoor recess more fun. Allowing my students opportunities to play and expressing their opinions will build classroom socialization and a healthy community. My students like to show and tell their classmates what they have at home. Having a classroom of toys will make indoor recess fun and enjoyable for them especially on days when it is too cold to go outside or on rainy days in general. Student's need more time for play because that's how they interact and help create friendships. They need more hands-on materials besides having a Chromebook constantly.
