My Project

In creating this project, I hope to promote a supportive environment that shapes my students into well-rounded and confident individuals who will grow up to be successful in whatever future endeavors they choose. Though my students are young, they amaze me with their imaginations and loving nature daily.

I would really like to incorporate dolls into our classroom during free play that better represent the cultures of our current students.

This will encourage them to use their imaginations and engage in cooperative play together.

The gift card will allow me to download games and activities that promote diversity and the speaker will allow me to play music from different genres and cultures.
