My Project

The Take Along Train Set will make a difference in pretend play learning. The children will be able to pretend to be on a train while ordering food. Supplying materials like pretend pizza, barber shop set, cooking set, and money can be used to encourage various Dramatic Play Scenes. Can you imagine these little ones pretending to be a barber or a pizza maker?

My main goal is to provide and rotate play scenes to complement the learning themes connected to the Missouri Early Learning Standards.

What makes my students special is that this will be my first time teaching children without severe behaviors. My classroom will be populated with 50% Special Education and 50% Regular Education. Although I have taught children with extreme behaviors for 19 years, I have not taught in this capacity. Therefore, I don't have my own materials to contribute to the classroom. Thank you for making a difference in these children's learning environment!
