My Project

These toys and activities promote social development by providing my students with opportunities to play collaboratively, communicate effectively with one another all while practicing teamwork. These are important life skills that will help my students be able to continue to grow and navigate social situations.

My students have shown amazing progress this year but we have a limited amount toys and activities in our classroom which also does not provide them with many options or opportunities for choice.

This project will provide manipulatices, building blocks, brushes, and other fun learning resources. Please help me provide my students with a variety of activities that will allow them to continue to grow!
