My Project

My kindergarten class this year is extremely light hearted, silly, energetic, and they love to have fun! Every day we play together and we love to laugh and learn this way.

Play is an essential learning experience for young minds because it allows for children to build relationships with their peers, learn how to problem solve, learn about their feelings, build empathy and social skills, be imaginative and creative, and relax after a long day of learning and working hard.

With the items requested in this project, I will be able to supply my students with more opportunities to play and learn along with the friends in our class.
