My Project
In an early elementary classroom, there is nothing as magical as block play. In addition to being FUN, playing with blocks offers a myriad of learning opportunities for children. Block play requires fine and gross motor skills. Blocks enhance children’s problem-solving abilities, imagination, mathematics skills, and language and literacy abilities. Constructing “creations” builds self-esteem and feelings of success.
Blocks help children learn to take turns and share materials, develop new friendships, become self-reliant, increase attention span, work cooperatively with others, and develop self-esteem.
Please help to provide my students with these diverse block sets! Thank you!
