This project was able to help 5 classrooms. Each classroom was given a few days to play and explore the different centers set up in the Glow in the Dark room. The students were able to practice sharing and cooperation while using the glow in the dark track. They loved the battery operated flashing cars. They were able explore using their senses with the glow in the dark pluffle. The glow in the dark beads gave them great fine motor practice as they make their bracelets with the beads and pipe cleaners. The students were able to work on so many different skills in such a different and unique way.

The students have to work on sharing the pieces and work together to build. They plan together. They practice language and communication skills with each other. They practice persistence when their creation falls or doesn't work out like they thought. These Tree Imagination Buikder shave helped the students work on so many skills.
