My Project

More than ever, students need an outlet for their creativity. I am asking for Legos, Magna-Tiles, and Play-Doh to help my students to use their imagination and build social skills. This year more than ever, my students need a quick learning break, and these materials will help me make it a productive one!

Giving my first graders an outlet to learn, play, and express themselves will help open doors to a world much more significant than outside their front door.

These materials will help foster team-building skills, expression, creativity, and a love for learning. Thank you for making my classroom a fun place to be!
