My Project

As kids from the Pacific Northwest, my students spend many recesses inside on rainy days (and now smoky days in the fall!). My classroom desperately needs a refresh of our indoor activities. Most of our games and toys are from my childhood in the 90s.

The STEM building toys will challenge students to think mathematically and scientifically.

The games will provide students with the opportunity to follow instructions, play cooperatively, strategize, and most importantly have fun! Thank you for helping us make our classroom an enriching and fun learning environment when we're stuck indoors!
