My Project

I have watched my students play together each morning and they bring so much joy to our classroom and school. During morning choice time students have the opportunity to play in different ways together. On one day they play games, on another day they build. I have noticed recently that they would benefit from more imaginative play and structured board games.

Kids learn the best through play and social interaction.

. The dinosaurs, farm animals and play people will give them the opportunity to play together and practice social skills. Games like shoots and ladders and zingo help them learn about taking turns and sticking with a game. The materials in this project will help them have a more robust choice time each morning
