My Project

There's no better way to learn than hands on learning through play in 3K!

I am requesting hammers, nails, a hammering board, and letter pieces so students can learn their letters through play!

Students will practice engineering skills, letter recognition skills, fine motor, and gross motor skills as they build their letters. We are also requesting a replacement board and nails so they will be able to build again and again. We will be putting our letter build activity in our science center and I'm sure it will be very popular!
