My Project

I am so excited about this project. This is something I have wanted to do since I began teaching Kindergarten, integrating dramatic play centers! I am hoping to get these activities for my students to engage in dramatic play each month to support imagination, play, language, social opportunities, discovery, self-regulation, and enjoyment.

In this project, students will have the chance to have a post office, farmers market, bakery, sushi and pizza shop, construction and careers, pie stand and pumpkins, picnic, and smoothie shop all in the classroom!

My new Kindergarten students this year would be so lucky to get to engage in these activities, thank you for your time!
