My Project

Now more than ever, Kindergarten students need hands-on learning. This year I have an energetic group of students who learn the best with manipulatives and games. They have a desire to learn and play. We are Title I school and all of our students receive free lunch.

With play-based learning, we are always encouraging students to use their imagination.

These Lego base plates, mini figures and other pieces will help add to our collection and allow the students to build cities. On of our units is communities and this will allow students to create roads, cars, and buildings that represent their communities!
