At some point soon we will be forced to stay inside for recess due to inclement weather. Therefore, the shopping cart includes items asked for by my students as well as tried and true kid favorites. The list includes Lincoln Logs, Magna-tiles, Play Dough, Geotiles, Kinetic Sand, Marble Run and origami paper to name a few.
These amazing materials will allow my students to explore numerous engaging opportunities when we have indoor recess, cafe time or other earned free time.
I believe these items will offer a variety of options for hard working young learners to interact and meaningfully play with peers.
More than half of students from low‑income households
