Imagination Is the Key to Learning

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Floyd's classroom raised $271

My Project

Help me give my students the gift of Imagination. These items will help my students explore the many jobs that the world holds for them in the future. With these items, my preschoolers will learn social, emotional, and language development. By having these items in my classroom it will build social skills that will help them learn to share and be problem solvers.

My goal for this project is to give my student a variety of dramatic play items that will build their social and emotional skills to help them grow in years to come.

My students live in a very rural area where most of them do not have the opportunity to experience fun and hands-on active's that are needed in their lives to build language development skills that will help them with social skills. By having the food and construction play items in my class they get to have a chance to have this experience
