Pre-K Toys and Games and Play!

Help me give my students games and toys to facilitate language, play, and so much more!

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Ford's classroom raised $701

My Project

These toys/games and sensory items will help my kids expand their speech and language and play skills all while having fun and learning! These materials will facilitate the following skills: turn-taking, parallel play, and following directions. I plan on using these specific items to increase my students play skills and receptive language. The bubble maker, magna-tiles, book, and cars will help increase their labeling, requesting, and engagement. All these toys and tools will help improve my kids speech and language development. These items can be used independently or in groups and will increase learning all while making it fun!
