My Project
My students have worked very hard this year. Summertime is just around the corner and I would love to provide my students with some extra fun hands-on activities and supplies that they can use over the summer to continue their learning and development. Sand toys and sand will encourage outdoor play. Sand is a great way to have fun while outside in the sun.
Children should be encouraged to play outdoors and have fun while continuing to develop their skills.
If students have supplies for outside, hopefully, it will encourage students to play outside. Students will be able to use the sand buckets to play with sand, water, or other outside items like rocks. Students need the active time outside.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
