Help me give my students opportunities to socialize and interact with toys and games they are interested in!

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Erwin's classroom raised $730

My Project

My students love to play and do well playing pretend. One thing they struggle with is playing pretend together. Some things my students love this year are food, princesses, trains, and fidgets. My students are very creative, and they will often create princess dresses out of things like body socks or sheets. They will also build trains out of blocks and magnatiles.

Bringing student interests into the classroom will excite my students as they learn to play and socialize together.

They will also help them complete learning activities and self regulate. I know my students will be so excited to see the items requested in this DonorsChoose and will be ready to practice their socialization skills.
