My Project

These toys and activities will keep my 2nd-grade students engaged, working cooperatively, and learning during inside recesses throughout the school year!

Southeast Missouri weather is unpredictable in the wintertime!

We spend many recesses inside our classroom due to snow, sleet, rain, and low temperatures. I want my students to have access to fun and engaging activities and toys to keep them busy and having fun during these inside recesses! My students love PlusPlus blocks, Legos, Brainflakes, and Magnatiles!

Please help me stock my classroom with amazing learning toys!
