My Project

This year I want to spend more time aligning my centers with our units. I also want it to be things that can be easily stored. This year I want to focus on being more purposeful so I feel these items will be fun and realistic to my students.

Im excited for our new bunch and I want them to have fresh items that they can explore with our units throughout the year.

The pretend plays jobs are exciting because in our community a lot of people are entrepreneurs, and I want them to know that they can always work for themselves are find ways to make money at an early age. I also want them to know that they can be anyone they want to be with no limits. I want them to have fun craft supplies, such as the dot markers and pipe cleaners, so they can use their imagination every day.
