Even my most reluctant learners become engaged in an activity that appears to a 5 year old to be a toy or game! The pots, pans, play food and dishes will be used in our classroom kitchen.

The interactive computer games will be used on our classroom smart board in a whole group and small group setting where every student eagerly awaits a turn! The other hands on manipulatives will be used to practice and reinforce both language arts and math skills in our small group centers.
