Dramatic play items will help my students learn social skills as well as help build on what they are learning in the classroom. Through play, they are able to make ideas their own. For example, when learning about money, we will set up a classroom restaurant where students will take orders. When learning about different people in the community, we will set up a doctor's office. These types of experiences create opportunities for my students to make this new learning their own. To make these experiences a reality, I need to provide my students with exciting and creative tools such as the dramatic play items I am requesting. If my students are able to use their imagination freely and let their creativity go, they will become more creative and engaged students.
