My Project

My students are about to learn about building and construction. They love to build, whether it is with wooden blocks, foam blocks, magnetic tiles, LEGO sets, or other building tools. I have a class of builders. I would love to supply them with new and exciting building and construction tools such as foam building blocks, buildings, construction vehicles, and tools featured in this project.

Help me activate their creativity and problem-solving in their preschool brains, by giving them a variety of building and construction materials to experiment with.

Whenever I can introduce new building material, my preschool students are always bursting with excitement. My students would very much enjoy the building and construction items and be able to work individually, with a partner, or even with a group. My class would love to see these sets in our rotation.
