Recess, Oh Yes!

Help me give my students with options during recess. Offering choices empowers students and supports their development into independent thinkers. Each activity will give students the freedom to play independently or collaboratively.

My Project

Help me provide my students with options during recess. Offering choices empowers students and supports their development into independent thinkers. When students are given the opportunity to make decisions, they learn to take ownership of their actions, explore their interests, and build confidence in their abilities. This is especially important because it will help students in an environment that is historically underfunded. Each item will give my Kindergarteners a chance to explore independently or collaboratively and give them foundational skills that will carry them throughout their educational journeys. Thank you in advance for your generosity.
