Indoor Recess Activities

Help me give my students a set of magnetic tiles for their indoor recess time so they have hands on manipulatives to play with during their recess time, and games to be laminated for long term use.

My Project

When it is indoor recess due to poor weather, my students are lacking fun activities to do. They love the small LEGO set I have, but I know they would be thrilled to play with a magnetic building kit for a few students. I would love to laminate student games for them to play in small groups during recess, and instructional times to motivate them to try these skills on their own. They love addition, subtraction, and sight word bingo, as well as anything they can use an expo marker on! Laminating games and learning activities to use during instructional and recess time will only encourage their skills and grow their knowledge!
