My Project

The students in my class are predominately from low income families. We have a new curriculum this year with themes that promote imagination and creativity. The best way to promote fun and creativity is through imagination play. The items in my cart are mostly STEM and sensory activities, such as the fort building kits and the wooden stacking washer and dryer toy with iron and basket.

The later years of my teaching has shown me that most students do well when given sensory activities to help with focus.

The building/STEM activities are game changers for children with special needs as well as the general ed population. Students have come out of covid with minimal social and play skills. These activities are beneficial to those skills. Thank you.
