One of the goals of transitional kindergarten is to allow students to be ready for the Kindergarten classroom by being able to problem solve alone or together. With these products, students will be faced with many problems, ranging from students overcoming the fear of asking a classmate if they can play with them to figuring out why their tower won't stand or stay up. In addition to students being allowed to use these materials for exploration time where they develop their social-emotional​ skills, I will be able to use these materials to allow students to explore the concepts my students are learning. For instance, students will be able to use these materials in all subjects, especially language arts and mathematics. These materials will be very helpful in engaging students in our academic centers.
