My students come from poverty with limited access to vocabulary, background building activities and pre-school opportunities. Many begin kindergarten behind their peers. Parents are stretched to provide basic necessities; therefore, the burden of bridging the poverty gap relies on the school. The Fisher Price Little People play sets will foster problem solving, creativity, ingenuity, and imagination through language-play based therapy. The Melissa and Doug play sets will allow for role play to better understanding of social cues. Students will increase their syntactic and pragmatic skills. The various puzzles and play sets will provide opportunities to build background knowledge as these skills improve. Play will push them past their disadvantages. A student's lack of resources should not define their future success.Through play based therapy, we will build a bridge to a brighter future.
