Indoor Recess Activities

Help me give my students activities to keep them engaged during indoor recess and testing times.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. J.'s classroom raised $596

My Project

My students need some fun and educational options for indoor recess! The weather here in Nevada can get very hot and/or windy. We need to find fun ways to have indoor recess. Students love having indoor recess when they have engaging choices to choose from. My goal is to make indoor recess a time that students actually look forward to rather than dread. This project will help provide my students with educational, fun, and entertaining activities to play during their indoor recess time.

They would love to have these STEAM toys and kits added to our classroom closet during their indoor recess and choice times.

These materials would be put to great use.

These different blocks, games, and activities would provide this opportunity for my students to work on critical social skills as well as continue learning and stretching their brain muscles while enjoying indoor recess or during free time in the classroom.

This project would ensure my students have a variety of indoor recess materials when the weather is not appropriate for outside recess.
