Grow Our Minds While We Play

Help me give my students board games, magnetic tiles, and building toys to have engaging activities to do for earning Fun Friday and for when we're stuck inside due to rain. These games will keep our minds growing through play.

My Project

My students are bright and eager to learn. There are fun ways to teach FL standards without having to use paper materials.

Games and building materials will provide fun learning experiences.

For example, the game Charades can be used for inferencing. The game Trouble for Math will strengthen problem solving and strategizing.

Magnetic tiles and building materials can be used to turn imagination into reality. Students can experiment with gravity, problem solving, shapes, engineering, and so much more. I bet the kids will come up with ways to use these items that I haven't even thought about. Your donations can make these learning experiences a reality!
