My Project

My students love the sandbox inside the classroom. The sandbox is small and only fits two children at a time. This sandbox would allow more children to play at once. We love being outside and exploring, I would love to put some treasures inside the sand for them to find. Being outside is very important for play-based learning in preschool. After being flooded last year, we are slowly building back our outside play area. Unfortunately, last school year we didn't get any outside time. I want to make up for it this year!
