Let's Explore in Meaningful Play

Help me give my students the materials they need to engage in play.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Trimble's classroom raised $497

This project is fully funded

Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project

The materials I selected will help my integrated preschool students engage in meaningful play with their peers and staff. The games will help them practice social skills by turn taking, sharing materials and following instructions. I have also selected other materials to help students explore their sensory needs with friends by sharing materials to create their own artwork and develop fine motor skills with instruments. The behavior punch cards help a child to self-regulate with positive reinforcement.

My students are learning to engage in play and the materials will provide fun meaningful opportunities
