Indoor Recess

Help me give my students a way to get off of screens! I would love to have games and activities that students can do during indoor recess without screens! Especially the magna tiles and play-dough!

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Nichols's classroom raised $342

My Project

I love how energetic my students are and how creative they can be! I am need of art supplies like the play-dough and kinetic sand for an easy cleanup for when indoor recess is over! Something that will get my students hands dirty when they are wanting to create!

My goal is to get students off of screens during recess, but with easy cleanup!

This list will help me provide more games and activities that they will be able to choose from. The board games and cards will get my students excited to get off of their Chromebooks!
