My Project

The materials that I am looking for is for my 4K classroom. I want to get task boxes in place for my students so that they can learn through exploring and problem solving with one another with items such as project boxes, zipper pouches, photo cases, and toys. These task boxes help students to think, cooperate and problem solve with their peers. Learning through play is very essential at this age. These task boxes will also help them to learn to be independent workers with the capability to ask for help when they need the extra support. The other materials that are being asked for are to make game pieces for the task boxes using the cricut machine.
