My Project

Outside of my classroom, we have a very sad fenced-in area. I would love to use this area to expand my student's learning. They love being outdoors, exploring, and learning.

Having equipment and other outdoor play items will provide an opportunity for my students to explore, discover, and appreciate the natural world.

This time outside will help students stay active, strengthen fine and gross motor movement skills, test physical limits, and get messy. Outdoor play helps with self-regulation and managing emotions.

We will utilize the equipment daily, as the weather allows. Your kindness will be a blessing to our students.
