My Project

My students could benefit from a larger variety of toys for table time to help practice their fine motor skills. Using blocks to stack and build allow them to improve their hand-eye coordination. The magna-tiles are a classroom favorite of my students, and they will be so excited to see the Arctic animals set.

A new rug will provide students with a clean, safe experience for playing on the ground.

Our classrooms have hard tile floors so a soft, padded rug is just what is needed to allow for a more positive playing experience.
