Imagine That: Learning Through Play

Help me give my students some fun interactive learning activities to help them learn.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Birch's classroom raised $504

My Project

The materials and supplies that I am requesting for my students already have a "home." In other words, I know exactly where everything will go. We just need your help in getting everything through our door! The TPT card I requested is for our dramatic play centers that we like to create for our students. I also ordered fun learning activities from there. The Alpha Bots will be used to during carpet time for them to enjoy. I will use the find the letter activity during our small reading groups. I will use the ice cream cones for counting during our math activities.

My students are awesome!

They are so appreciative of everything we do for them. They are always giving us hugs.

The different dramatic play themes would bring joy to my students. They get excited when we switch it up. I'm looking to add a Dr. Office, Donut Shop, and Candy Store to name a few.

I have seen how choice can positively affect my students work and demeanor and hope that the additional options will help us grow even more!
