My Project

My students in my integrated Pre-K classroom love to learn through play. My students enjoy rotating through educational centers each day at school. My students especially love going to our dramatic play center which includes educational toys, make-believe toys and dress up clothes. My goal is to change out my classroom's dramatic play center each month to create a fresh, fun and exciting new center for my students to explore. I would love to purchase a dramatic play bundle from Pocketful of Preschool off of Teachers Pay Teachers to help provide a fun new and exciting dramatic play for my students to explore each month. My goal is to align the dramatic play center's theme to what my students are learning about in class or what season we are in. Please help me fundraise the materials such as cardstock and laminating sheets to help me create these resources once purchased from Teachers Pay Teachers. It will take time to print, laminate and cut these items, but the excitement on my students' faces will definitely be worth it. I also want the bins and boxes to store the monthly dramatic play center toys in.
