My Project

These days, students really struggle with learning how to PLAY and work together. The board games will be used as an alternative for recess activities when it's raining and we're stuck inside. I would love for my students to be able to learn how to play with others and work together for a common goal.

Many of my students struggle with making friends, not because they aren't likable children, they just don't know HOW to make friends.

In today's "me" culture, students often find themselves playing alone. In order to help my students become productive members of society, they need to learn how to be around and work with others. Board games can help students practice critical thinking, working in teams, and problem solving skills.

In addition, there are items to help streamline activities and organize classroom supplies. In my classroom, we only have tables, which means that students don't really have their "own" area. The buckets can be used as a trashcan on both ends of tables to make cleaning up a breeze! Table caddies can be used to store all the table members' supplies such as scissors, glue, notebooks, pencils, etc to keep tables neat and tidy! Anchor chart paper will allow me to make visually appealing and helpful tools for students to reference in the classroom. I can even laminate them to last for years to come!

Please consider donating to our project and thank you!

Mrs. Reed will only receive her materials if this project is fully funded by August 31.
