My Project

Hello!

I am requesting items for indoor recess and items for our classroom prize box.

When the weather gets too hot, too cold, rainy, or really snowy, we must stay inside for recess. During indoor recess, I enjoy seeing my students create, build, and play together instead of spend time behind screens. Play Doh, Legos, and building toys are a wonderful way to have fun together while encouraging creativity, problem solving, and teamwork!

Students also earn chances to pick special items from our classroom prize box. This prize box rewards students who are doing a great job at school and is also used to celebrate different things going on throughout the year.

Thank you for helping me fill our indoor recess shelf and prize box. I appreciate your support!
