pretend play center

Wilkshire teacher, Lauren Heins, received a grant for her class pretend play center - a place her students can develop critical thinking skills while also learning to share, work together, and problem solve. Even those receiving speech services have grown from role playing. “I’ve seen them take risks at the center that they are unwilling to take throughout the rest of the day.”
