My Project

Please help me provide some board games and building toys for indoor recess.

I am a first-year teacher with a beautiful 3rd-grade class.

Since it is getting cold, we will have indoor recess more often. My goal is to give them something to do with their hands.

Providing them with board games and building toys will also help them with working in a group. Board games will help my class learn to work together and enjoy indoor recess! Flexible seating is also included for them to sit around the room for independent reading time.
