My Project

This year has definitely been an active year. I love working with my students and cultivating their minds; however, there comes a time in the day when these little brains need a break from learning.

With all the technology in today's world I love to see when my students can play with one another and enjoy themselves without a screen.

Recess is their time to unwind and release energy. With this outdoor equipment, my students will be able to take full advantage of recess. Besides having fun, they will also get the exercise they need as kids. They will be able to get all their wiggles out and be ready to refocus on learning.
