Imaginative Play Expanded in Pre-K!

Help me give my students opportunities for inclusive, engaging, and expansive imaginative play.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Murray's classroom raised $670

My Project

My students are wildly creative. They are kind, energetic, and exude a love of learning. They have the ability to build and create with a variety of materials but are yearning for more. They are ready for more challenges...more opened ended opportunities...more dramatic play. With these materials, my students will have teacher-created boxes with items that match their interests. They will use these boxes I have created to use their imagination in endless ways. With these materials, my students will also have access to diverse and inclusive imaginative opportunities.
