My Project

Learning through play is so important in classrooms, especially for our youngest learners. Our 3-year old preschool class recently opened, and is in great need of fun educational toys. I want to provide a variety of materials to keep my students engaged in fun learning activities.

With these new toys, like the Leapfrog reader, magnetic letters, and pattern blocks, my students will get to choose from a wide range of fun and engaging activities.

The toys I have selected will help my students with early literacy and math skills and provide many opportunities to learn. Having these options will help my students grow in many ways.
