My Project

The materials in this project will impact my students in so many ways. The learning games and tools will offer more choices for centers and our group rotations. We mainly learn through play in UTK-CC and have special needs students who benefit from all the experiences they get.

The outdoor folding tables and bench storage will be used daily, we play outside for two hours each day and having our materials handy, such as the large building blocks, will truly make our playtime more smooth and organized.

These tables are used to play, color and do puzzles more comfortably while outside. They are easy to fold for storage and help us keep them in good condition.

The busy boards will help students regroup and/ or deescalate when they are struggling with big emotions or with being in a large group. All the materials in this project make my room a more inviting and inclusive classroom. The Barbies added are diverse and help students see differences they will experience in the real world and set them up to know that these differences are welcome and accepted.

It is my goal to make our UTK-CC program the absolute best and these materials truly send us in the right direction.
