My Project

Providing my students with indoor recess games will allow for the laughter to continue even on a rainy day. It is hard for them to want to explore and interact with one another on those rainy and snowy days. Giving them game boards and engineering tools will help to keep the excitement going.

The games will keep the imagination alive.

The play mat is easy to take out and fold up to put away. It is also easy to wipe down and sanitize unlike rugs which is great when working with children.
