My Project

Play is an opportunity for our youngest learners to explore the real world!

Setting up a thriving Dramatic Play Area will allow my students to have fun while practicing problem-solving, literacy skills, turn-taking, conversation, and life skills.

I would love for my students to create their own world with brand-new items that they can take care of and feel ownership over.

Dramatic Play is also important for our English Language Learners as they practice their conversation skills and practice speaking with their peers. Language blossoms during play!

Thank you in advance for the smiles you will bring to kindergarten!
